The game is set in an alternate version of the exclusion zone around the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, known as the Zone. It’s a dangerous, post-apocalyptic world filled with radioactive fallout, anomalies, mutants, bandits, and mysterious artifacts. As stalkers, you explore this area, search for valuable artifacts, face threats, and try to survive in an environment where anything can happen—from toxic rain to sudden radiation emissions.
A cooperative game for 1–4 players that combines elements of tactics, exploration, and survival.
The game takes place on a modular map made up of tiles, allowing for a variety of scenarios.
Two modes are available:
- Campaign with a story divided into missions.
- Zone Survival – a one-off, unpredictable adventure.
The system allows for a stealth approach (hiding, throwing bolts to distract) or combat with weapons. Special anomaly systems require solving puzzles to obtain artifacts. Managing inventory, radiation levels (with a cardboard Geiger counter), and making tough decisions all influence the course of the story.
☢ If you’re looking for a tense, atmospheric, and strategic adventure in the eerie Zone, this game is the perfect choice for you.
