Description
The world has fallen to the undead. But hope isn't lost — after years of research, brave scientists have discovered an antidote that can reverse zombification. The result? Zombie-human hybrids called humbies. Your mission: build a cutting-edge lab, cure the infected, and lead humanity back from the brink.
Build & Expand
Raise walls and fences to protect your scientists. Set up production lines to process materials, generate power, and support your growing facility. Efficient planning is key — every machine, room, and cable counts.
Manage & Optimize
Assign workers, prioritize tasks, and balance resources across day and night shifts. With four different worker types to manage, you’ll need smart planning to keep your lab running — and safe.
Research & Upgrade
Unlock over 200 technologies to advance through four tech tiers. Discover high-tier materials, develop advanced science equipment, and push closer to the final cure.
Capture & Cure
Use high-tech freezing guns to catch zombies and bring them in for treatment. Watch them transform into humbies — helpful hybrids ready to work. But be careful: neglect their needs, and they might rampage through your lab.
Defend & Survive
Each night brings waves of zombies. Build smart defenses, electrify your perimeter, and keep the hordes at bay. But beware: one blackout can undo everything.
Cure the World
Healing, not killing, is your path forward. Grow your workforce, manage their moods, and turn the tide of the apocalypse — one humbie at a time.

I've made a refund request at 5.2hrs playtime because that's how long the very slow, buggy tutorial took to complete. After the tutorial, it appeared that the unlocked 'real game' was actually just a set of completely
Feels like a scam game. The tutorial walks you through the mechanics well enough (despite glaring bugs that require a fair amount of patience to overcome), but when thrown into the game, it's just a sandbox. During the
Avoid at all costs! Complete mess of a game, most of the bugs they said they had fixed, they haven't. This should be in very early access, its not fit for anything else, especially a console release. 4 hours played and
tl;dr my vote is mixed, neither positive nor negative. The game is enjoyable and has a long playtime, but it's plagued by numerous bugs and poorly designed mechanics that seriously hurt the overall experience. ZCL is a
Zombie Cure Lab is a unique blend of base-building, resource management, and strategy, where the goal is to cure zombies rather than eliminate them. Set in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by zombies, players are tasked
Nice little colony sim, which was released without proper bug fixing, optimization and some essential QoL features. Maybe in a few months from now it will be in a better shape.
