About this Survival Test

The Ultimate Zombie Apocalypse Survival Test is a 90-decision fictional survival challenge that places you inside a developing zombie outbreak. Instead of testing your knowledge of a particular movie or television series, the test asks you to make choices as conditions change around you.

The situations cover many aspects of survival, including food, water, shelter, transportation, medical problems, dangerous encounters, resources, leadership and relationships with other survivors. Some decisions focus on immediate danger, while others require you to think about what could happen several days or weeks later.

Your decisions determine your Survival Score. Certain questions also contribute to a separate Morality Score, allowing the test to measure two different aspects of your choices rather than treating survival and morality as the same thing.

The test is designed as a fictional entertainment experience and thought experiment. Your result is not a scientific prediction of how you would perform during a real emergency or disaster.

What This Test Covers

The 90 decisions cover different problems that could arise during a fictional zombie outbreak. Some situations involve immediate threats, while others focus on managing limited resources and making decisions that could affect your group over time.

Food and Water

Questions may involve finding, protecting and managing essential supplies when access to food and clean water becomes limited.

Shelter and Transportation

The test includes decisions about choosing secure locations, moving between areas and deciding when transportation is worth the risks involved.

Medical Problems

Some situations involve injuries, illness, medical supplies and difficult decisions about how to respond when professional medical help is unavailable.

Dangerous Encounters

The scenarios include encounters with zombies, dangerous environments and other threats where choosing when to fight, hide, escape or take a risk can affect your survival score.

Other Survivors

Some decisions involve trust, cooperation, leadership, conflict and relationships with other survivors. Working with others can provide advantages while also creating additional risks and responsibilities.

Morality and Difficult Choices

Certain decisions include a separate morality component. These choices can involve compassion, fairness, trust, responsibility and the willingness to help others when doing so may create additional risks for your group.

HOW THE TEST WORKS

The complete test contains 90 fictional survival decisions. Every decision presents four possible choices. Read the situation carefully and select the option you believe gives you the best outcome within the scenario.

Each decision can contribute to your Survival Score. With a maximum of 5 Survival points available from each decision, the test has a maximum possible Survival Score of 450 points before the result is converted into a percentage.

Some decisions also contain a morality component. These choices contribute separately to your Morality Score and can reflect factors such as compassion, fairness, trust, responsibility and your willingness to help other people.

The two scores are intentionally separate. A player can make highly effective survival decisions while making choices that produce a lower Morality Score. Likewise, a compassionate decision is not necessarily the safest decision in every fictional situation.
