Patient Zero: you are patient zero. Nobody knows yet.

Start the outbreak

Patient Zero is a top-down stealth outbreak game in a bold comic style. Each level drops you into an ordinary place full of people going about their day: a lab, an office, a hospital ward, a hotel, a bus stop. Spread the infection without being seen, and turn the whole place before anyone can stop it.

You start alive, with seconds to spare before you fall: use them to sabotage. Then you rise. Everyone you bite gets back up as a slow zombie you do not control. Lead them into place, cover the exits, and let the ambush happen.

Stay in the dark

Light is line of sight. People see you clearly under the lamps and barely at all in shadow. Cut the lights, wait for night, and pick your moment.

Everyone has a routine

The same person walks the same route at the same hour. Learn it and be waiting. Make a mess and a janitor comes to clean it; break something and the repairman arrives.

Panic is forever

Anyone who sees a body or a zombie freezes, then runs, and never comes back. A witness may call the police, and officers shoot zombies on sight, including you.

70 levels, one outbreak

From the lab out onto the streets, through offices, the bank and the cells, the beach, the state fair and the farms, out through the airport, to where the army tries to contain it.

Control Group: play together

Up to four players start the outbreak together. Host on the same Wi-Fi, or play online with a six-character code. No account, no setup.

Make your own levels

Draw the rooms, place the furniture, set the goals and play straight away. Share a level as a code you paste into any messaging app.
