Quarantine Zone: The Last Check News

[p]In the Quarantine Zone, every survivor hides a secret. Some are wounded. Some are sick. And some? They won’t even be human anymore in a couple of days.[/p][p] [/p][h2]Today, in our first dev diary, we reveal one of the key tools that will help you uncover the truth—or seal a survivor’s fate: the Neurological Hammer.
[/h2][h2]What Is the Neurological Hammer?[/h2][p]This isn’t your average medical instrument—it’s a lifeline for diagnosing survivors and uncovering hidden infections in a world where every decision matters. Strike a limb, and the survivors reaction will tell you all you need to know: [/p]

• [p]Zero/Low Response? The limb is likely dying. Weak reflexes mean decay… or worse, infection.[/p]

[p][/p]

• [p]Normal Response? For now, they’re safe. For now.[/p]

[p][/p]

• [p]High Response? Overactive nerves scream of pain, disease—or something beneath the skin.[/p]

[p][/p][p]But beware: misuse has consequences. Hit non-target zones (like the head or torso), and you’ll face financial penalties, or you might even end up with an involuntary manslaughter charge.[/p][p][/p][p]
[/p][h2]Why It Matters[/h2][p]In the Quarantine Zone, the tools at your disposal aren't about healing. It’s about triage. The Neurological Hammer forces you to make decisive calls: [/p]

• [p]Is that limp just a fracture… or the first sign of the deadly plague?[/p]
• [p]Is heightened sensitivity to pain or nerves showing a possible illness or sign of an infection?[/p]

[p]One wrong diagnosis, and the outbreak spreads. One right call, and you might survive another shift.[/p][p]And if you're brave enough, you can use the hammer for self-defence purposes. [/p][p][/p][p]Stay tuned for more updates! We’ll soon share our roadmap, including new tools, mechanics, and the team’s vision for Quarantine Zone.[/p][p][/p][p]About Quarantine Zone: [/p][p]Papers, Please meets zombie apocalypse. Command the last checkpoint, inspect survivors, and decide their fate: trust, quarantine, or liquidate.

Demo for Quarantine Zone went live exactly a week ago - on May 22nd. It's been an interesting week for the entirety of the development team as we doing our best to process all of the feedback and bug reports we've been getting.

We'd like to share with you the stats for the Demo after the first seven days:


Our team is still in quite a state of shock from those numbers, including the number of answered surveys. We are hard at work processing them and seeing where we should take the game next.

We'll be back with more news regarding our future plans for the game soon enough, we have loads of ideas, and a lot of them are based on players' feedback and input.

Thank you!

Greetings!

First of all, we'd like to celebrate the fact that more than 400.000 people have played Quarantine Zone Demo!

We know of players' frustration with the resource cart, its controls & resource transportation. We are already working on addressing your concerns thanks to the ample feedback we've received on the matter.

With that being said, we also keep a keen eye on all other feedback regarding other parts of the game, including bug reports.

We ask that you give us time to figure out a proper way to address the resource cart and we'll keep improving other aspects of the demo.

Thank you for playing the demo! We'll be back with more news during the upcoming week.
