What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“At this stage, we are confident that you will have a good time playing and enjoying Uncle Z. However, there are still many ideas, regions, and features that we have yet to implement. We also need your feedback to adjust the difficulty and balance of the game. The game is practically finished, but it is still far from realizing its full potential.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I plan to finish it within 6 months. That said, it will remain in early access until all expeditions and bases are implemented.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Our goal is to have 3 types of regions. We already have the farm implemented and plan to introduce a region where the base is set in a shopping mall and another region where the base is in a prison. We also intend to bring more items, weapons, resources, infected creatures, and expeditions. One of our main objectives is to enhance interaction with the game's AI survivors, making it possible to recruit and organize tasks for them. Additionally, I aim to address the majority of glitches and refine the game's design and difficulty to ensure it can be enjoyed by both novice and experienced players alike.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game can be played with up to 4 players. There are at least 5 Expeditions to explore, 2 types of zombies, normal and a special one to face and more than 30 items and tools that you can find in the expeditions, it is possible to use other types of skins for your characters (Skins already released in the game and others paid with real currency). You can complete the campaign by following the missions you find in the game.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We don't expect the price to drop but there’s a possibility that the price may increase as we near a more polished game”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community can assist us by providing feedback and helping us focus on the game's design. We'll be closely monitoring reactions on our Discord, as well as watching gameplay videos. I can also incorporate your ideas for new expeditions, infected creatures, and items to be added to the game.”

About This Game

Objective:

In UNCLE Z, you and up to four brave survivors have the crucial task of caring for your uncle, who has been infected by the terrible zombie plague. Time is against you as you desperately search for clues that will lead to your long-awaited rescue. But be careful, every step you take could be your last!

Key Mechanics:

Resource Management:
The game offers an immersive and challenging experience, where the scarcity of resources is just the beginning of your problems. Hunger and thirst are constant threats, requiring you and your team to make quick, smart decisions to survive another day.



Resolve Chaos:
Keeping your base running is essential for survival amid the chaos of the zombie apocalypse. Daily tasks include searching for vital resources such as food, water and building materials, while you and your team face constant zombie attacks and your uncle doesn't seem to be much help...



Keep the House Clean:
The infected blood spread across the floor of the house poses a constant threat, as any inadvertent contact could result in infection and transformation into a zombie. Keeping the area clean and taking extra precautions when handling contaminated waste are essential measures to prevent the spread of infection and ensure the safety of all team members.



Keep the House Secure:
It is crucial to fortify your defenses, repair structural damage, and ensure all systems such as power and communications are operational. Every detail counts in the fight for survival, and the ability to keep your base functioning amidst the chaos will determine your fate in this unforgiving world.



Stay Alert:
Be alert on expeditions to not be left behind.



Combat:
Combat strategy is the key to defeating the hordes of zombies that roam the post-apocalyptic world. Players need to be constantly alert and prepared to face these relentless and differentiated enemies.



Find Resources:
Expeditions are a vital part of the survival strategy. Players can organize exploration teams to venture outside the safety of their base in search of essential resources and clues to rescue.



Diseases:
Avoid catching diseases and always have some medicine to treat them.



Exploration:
Explore locations in search of weapons, resources and a way to escape to safety.



Crafting:
The importance of using resources effectively and in concert cannot be underestimated. Each item, from food and water to building materials and ammunition, plays a crucial role in players' survival and maintaining their base.
