Red Plague: Retro Roguelike

Zombie Apocalypse Ruled by the Red Moon.

Do you remember those old games where the whole world fit on a monitor screen with green text? Where you had to imagine the monsters in your mind, and every letter on the map meant something?

Red Plague is a return to that era — but with modern mechanics.

Welcome to a world that has survived the zombie apocalypse. But the dead aren't the main problem. The real horror comes when the Red Moon rises.

🌕 A WORLD THAT CHANGES WITH EVERY RISING

After the fall of civilization, Earth's satellite drifted out of orbit. Now the Red Moon distorts reality. With every rising, the world rebuilds itself:

Buildings you explored yesterday may vanish.

Zombie corpses mutate, transforming into new life forms.

The familiar map no longer works — landmarks shift.

This isn't just a change of day. This is a new reality you must adapt to.

👁️‍🗨️ RETRO SCHOOL: TEXT AND ASCII

We've preserved the spirit of old text quests and ASCII games (like Rogue from 1980). But we've made it accessible for everyone:

Classic Mode: Symbols like @, Z, H on the map — just like in the good old roguelikes.

Visually Impaired Mode: Full text descriptions of locations. Your phone reads the screen aloud, and the game tells you: "You stand beside the rusty carcass of a truck. Movement spotted 2 km to the north. Something glitters underfoot." We've made the game accessible to those who can't see pixels but still want to feel the atmosphere.

📦 UNIQUE ARTIFACTS: NOT JUST JUNK

The zombie apocalypse has merged with the anomalies of the Red Moon. Now ordinary unique items gain incredible properties. These aren't just "+5 damage" — they're game-changers.

Rusty Flashlight: Doesn't work in the normal world. But under the Red Moon, it begins to glow, scaring off mutated creatures.

Old Photograph: Keep it in your inventory, and NPCs start treating you with trust. They think you were one of their relatives in a past cycle.

Geodetic Marker: Find 3 of them and place them on the map — they'll create a safe zone where anomalies don't work.

⚔️ SURVIVAL, CRAFTING, AND QUESTS

Crafting at the Workbench: Gather spare parts to repair armor and fix your own vehicle.

Cooking at the Campfire: From zombie-deer meat and found mushrooms, you can brew a poisonous stew to defeat enemies that ordinary bullets can't touch — or a nourishing broth to restore your health.

Quests: A group of survivors at the church asks you to bring them "living water" from an anomalous spring. Can you make it through the zone swarming with creatures under the Red Moon?

🕹️ KEY FEATURES:

Adaptive Interface: Play however you like — with graphics or fully text-based descriptions.

Red Moon Cycle: The world changes, enemies mutate, items reveal hidden properties.

Unique Artifacts: Items that affect dialogues, enemy behavior, and reality itself.

Deep Crafting: From repairing gear to creating anomalous devices.

Classic Roguelike: Permadeath, turn-based combat, procedural generation.

When the Red Moon rises, your old knowledge will stop working. Listen, feel, and survive.
