Describe LITERALLY ANYONE/THING and turn it into a zombie-slaying playable hero in seconds! Execute The Ritual, get whipped through time, dodge, weave and hurl spells in this sardonic, horde-survival roguelite. Fix the timeline, save the world, and try not to lose your marbles eh?
🥩 IT'S TIME TO GENERATE YOUR MEAT SUIT
In YOU vs ZOMBIES, you don't pick your hero from a boring drop-down menu or mess with tedious character-creator face sliders. You execute The Ritual. Describe LITERALLY ANYONE / THING, and our chaotic generation engine will spit out a highly unqualified, personalized, playable meat vessel in seconds.
The apocalypse is efficient, brutal, and has zero regard for your personal comfort. Here is the catch: your choices actually matter, and The Ritual takes your prompts very literally. Describe a hardened, highly-skilled battlemage with spiky purple hair, and you might actually survive the horde. Ask for a monkey in pajamas, and the universe will happily oblige before watching you get instantly shredded.
Get creative, because exactly what you type dictates whether you become a timeline-saving HERO or an absolute ZERO. Spawning as a slice of sentient cheese might sound hilarious for the Discord chat, but remember: zombies don't understand irony. They just understand chewing.
🧟♀️ WAIT, WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? (THE STORY)
Oh, right, the plot. The apocalypse is in full swing, and only 3 wizards are still standing; Ash, an Elvis lovin' deadpan but wise mage with a buttery smooth voice, Morgan, a music-lyric-maverick who loves a good dose of PTSD, and YOU!
It’s time to break the timeline. Embrace the magic of the AI ritual. The dead are walking, and we’re fresh out of human shields.
🗝️ KEY STUFF TO TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT
HERO or ZERO: Experience a brutally tuned vertical slice of personalised spellcasting combat. Our playtest currently gives you an introductory run through of an 8 beat story, with more storylines coming in the main game.
Sardonic Survival: Navigate the collapsing multiverse guided by a system that truly, deeply, does not care if you succeed. You do have ‘friends’ in Ash and Morgan but they don’t do hippy hand holding.
Chaotic Spellcraft: Don't just mash buttons. Tap to quick-fire your personalized spells, or hold your cast to unleash devastating heavy damage, level-clearing ricochets, and split-shots into the horde.
Pure Skill, No Safety Net: You’ve got to sling your spells with top-notch skill to get through our 8 story beats, OR you will be thrown back into the grinder every time you fail. The timeline instantly rewinds back to the start of the level; there are no loading screens to save you here, and any questionable stat boosts and chaotic new abilities also disappear.
A Shifting Apocalypse: The Ritual doesn't just generate your meat suit. It drops you into 24 constantly varied, shifting 3D environments with unpredictable objectives; from desperate survival and wave defense, to frantic searches and brutal boss fights.
🗺️ YOUR EXPECTED TRAJECTORY
The Ritual demands suffering. Here is exactly how your time in the apocalypse is going to play out:
You are abruptly yanked from your mundane life.
You are shoved into a highly unqualified, AI-generated vessel.
You realize you have no weapons, only unstable, chaotic magic.
The undead horde arrives to welcome ahem, eat you.
You die terribly.
The timeline instantly rewinds, forcing you to do it all over again (loading screens, schmolding screens phfft).
You suffer through the hordes, attempting to master your spells.
You finally face a Boss. You will probably die again.
💫 The Ritual takes what you describe and the world we’ve built; its art, biomes, and magic, and turns it into gameplay that’s personal to you. When you start typing, here is what happens behind the scenes to build your unique experience.
During The Ritual, you describe your hero by typing their name, and how they look, plus curious nuggets about what they love, hate, are known for etc. The Ritual takes this information and (using various LLM technologies combined with our handcrafted story bible, gameplay structures, objectives and constraints) creates assets, in real time, to create your gaming experience; a hyper-personalized story starring YOU!
Within a few seconds, The Ritual simultaneously triggers:
A personal story – each hero’s run unfolds differently, with reactive dialogue and shifting scenarios
A stat profile – an archetype chosen to fit your hero, plus a unique buff to a core stat
A voice – battle cries, taunts, and dialogue that match your vibe
A spell kit – a magic school chosen to fit your hero, plus two unique spells
A nemesis – a boss chosen specifically for your hero
A look – 2D character art generated in our distinctive style

This means when your character gets generated, it is NOT generic AI art; it is our artistic DNA interpreting your imagination. While The Ritual co
