Zombies Forever!
Note: This game has been rated as High risk. You WILL die! Before combatants are allowed inside the arena itself they are strongly advised to read the rules and understand the risks involved.
Zombies Forever! is a minigame that was built by Cubic Worlds players Birdtross and Muako. It essentially consists of a zombie spawner in the center of a death-pit. Players enter this death-pit with some basic fighting equipment and are awarded points for where and how they kill zombies.
Getting There
From Greenview Plaza, players need to taken the eastern path (the direction the sun rises from). Follow the path out of the public crafting area and enter the maze of streets. Keep heading east, past the Cube Tower. The path should now change texture. Pass by Sunshine Tavern and head over the small bridge. Now head through the small tunnel cut into the side of the mountain here. Following the path past the Cursed Forest will bring you to the Arena entrance.
Gameplay
Once you drop into the arena, the resident zombies will begin their relentless attack. A 'judge' (most normally Birdtross) will keep track of your score. Once you have died, the game is over. The judge will then announce your score and, if it's high enough add it to the highscores.
Only the top 8 scores make it onto the highscores for any division.
Points are awarded for the way in which you kill a zombie:
- 1 point is awarded for an 'arrow kill'
- 2 points are awarded for a 'sword kill'
- 3 points are awarded for killing a zombie that's on fire with any weapon!
The center of the arena is a Double-score area (marked by mossy cobblestone on the floor). If you and the zombie are standing on it when the zombie dies, you will be rewarded with double points!
Before fighting in the arena, you must choose which division you wish to play in. Each has it's own set of requirements you must fulfill in order to participate. This includes weapons, armour and entry fee: Anyone know how to make tables? The following list would be cool in a table. Thanks! -Birdtross
- Conan Style! Normal weapons, no armour - 30 Kubes
- Leather Man Normal weapons, leather armour - 30 Kubes
- Iron Lung Normal weapons, iron armour - 30 Kubes
- Gold Digger Normal weapons, gold armour - 30 Kubes
- Diamond Knight Normal weapons, diamond armour - 40 Kubes
- Robin Hood Bow only, no armour - 20 Kubes
- Outta Ammo!?! Sword only, no armour - 10 Kubes
-THE FOLLOWING IS UNEDITED TEXT DIRECTLY FROM THE FORUMS-
We've also installed some rather nasty lava traps, which will be activated every minute or so.
'Normal weapons' are classed as: 1 Stone Sword, 1 Bow and 30 arrows. At this time, we do not sell armour, but if you'd like to supply some, let us know! You can bring any amount of food into the arena, but it has to be bought from the chest shops there (this is in addition to the entry fee). The general rule is that the food is worth the amount of healing it gives you (so a piece of bread is worth 2.5 Kubes).
In the weekends, we'll also open up some special divisions: Gamble: (Minimum of 3 players) Normal weapons, any armour, maximum of 3 food. The entry fee of 50 Kubes is hefty, but if you get the highest score, you win back 75 Kubes! Endurance: Anything Goes! Diamond swords, multiple stacks of arrows, you name it you can take it in (This may be a bad idea, as scores could run into the thousands... we'll have to see!). - 50 Kubes Doubles: 2 Friends take on the horde! One wields the sword, the other the bow! - 25 Kubes each Pumpkin Slayer: Bone, 60 arrows, any armour, maximum of 3 food items (This division is only available to Pumpkin Head Clan Members). Don your Pumpkin Mask and bone and show you're the toughest of them all! - Free!!
