The Zone - Frontline Events

[Lofty]

Are the a Stalker game fan? If so The Zone is for you! 

 

Welcome to Frontline Events - The Zone, a first-person role playing adventure combining airsoft, survival & horror elements based off STALKER, a series of PC Games. It takes place in a Sci-Fi exclusion zone around the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The game world is divided into several territories, some of which are initially inaccessible.

 

How can we build a STALKER inspired exclusion zone in the UK? Well, we are glad you asked. We use your imagination, an app and physical props to provide the atmosphere! You may even stumble across mutants!

 

The Zone offers an experience like no other in the UK. You will be consumed by The Zone if not careful. А тепер забирайся звідси, СТАЛКЕР!

Meet out first NPC The Trader!

 

The Trader is someone you can interact with for quests and buying or selling items. While almost all friendly and neutral characters can be traded with, a Trader is defined as a character who has items independent of his own inventory.

 

Traders reside in safe areas and can be easily accessed by all STALKERS. A full trader will usually buy and sell a large selection of goods such as Water, Food and Ammunition.

 

Speak to the Trader if you have radiation poisoning. Vodka can heal up to 25% of radiation absorbed.

Looks very interesting but that's a lot of rules and information to learn and remember!

Is there a rough date or location planned for this yet?

The rules and details are far too much to me.   A hardcore fan of the game could be interested in that level, but you’ve then got a very niche within a niche for the customer base

 

If you manage to build a regular crowd then things could build.

 

I’d recommend either themed gaming which lightened down the elements into mission stages , or ‘actor’ led experiences with a very much toned down rule set.

 

 

The app sends me major alarm bells with just the first mention of needing your own device then the battery issue on top.

But then add on that it must be Android (I  do understand about other issues of just getting an iOS app up let alone cross platform issues),  but having to have the right specifications, possibly certain models etc means quite an expense, and then needing to uninstall / reinstall for a return visit

You should be providing these - or even better having less reliance on them per person with an actor led experience and those being the ones carrying the app

As above. In my experience the more complex you make a game the higher chance it has of going tits up.

 

I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't want to have to take their phone into a game and risk it getting broken.

 

I wish you the best of luck with it but I don't think it's for me so
