The zombies must tag and “feed” on a human every 48 hours or he starves to death and is out of the game. | ||
The popular version of the game incorporates nerf guns, and sock 'grenades'/mele weapons. However, this being hackspace we began wondering if it were possible to fabricate a laser tag style system. After some research instructions for a DIY laser tag were found <link pending>, and it appears to be a financially plausible idea. While still in its infancy the ideas we have had are as follows: | |||
* Lazor guns, because everything is better with a little more lazor | |||
* Ammunition crates - set up to dispense a set number of 'rounds' to the guns | |||
** These should be powered by an internal battery and distributed around the game zone | |||
* Possible RFID devices for the zombies, with a reader on the humans | |||
** This should also allow us to see which zombies have 'starved' to death | |||
* Potentially setting up the system so that 'kills', and 'bites' are displayed on the board | |||
** Possibly achievable by tethering the amunition boxes to a mobile phone and transmitting the data back to the space | |||
