Terminus: Day Zero

Terminus: Day Zero is a short zombie survival adventure about the first day of an outbreak, seen through the eyes of Daisy, a young girl who wakes up alone in her house. She calls for her parents, but they do not answer. When the dead break in, Daisy must hide and escape; she cannot fight back.

Daisy’s neighborhood

Daisy does not understand what is happening, only that the people outside seem wrong. Her street is now full of strangers who were once neighbors: some stand in yards as if they have forgotten where they were going, while others kneel over people who did not survive. Cars sit where their owners left them, and thin fog makes the other side of the street feel far away.

Daisy talks to herself to stay brave. Her parents are somewhere outside, and she must decide whether to stay put and wait for help or leave while she can.

Hide and escape

Daisy cannot fight, so she uses what she knows about the house: where to hide and which doors still close. You can squeeze under a bed and hold your breath as the dead shuffle past, or shut a door behind you and hope it holds. But hiding cannot keep her safe forever, and she eventually has to run.

Daisy knows the yards and fences in her neighborhood better than anything chasing her. You help her get through the longest day of her life, moving through one neighborhood and the people who used to live there.
