Welcome to Zombiepuram
A multi-faction negotiation and influence simulation.
Welcome to Zombiepuram is a multi-faction negotiation and influence simulation where participants — divided into groups — represent factions in a post-apocalyptic city. Each faction possesses unique information, individual goals, and a shared collective objective that requires cross-faction cooperation.
Core Mechanics
The game requires trading, negotiation, alliance-building, and occasionally breaking alliances. No single player has all the necessary resources, and no faction can succeed in isolation. Success depends on influence rather than authority.
What It Reveals
The simulation exposes authentic behaviours under pressure — with incomplete information and competing objectives. It demonstrates who builds early coalitions, hoards or shares information, earns trust through action, and leads informally without formal hierarchy.
Who It's For
Designed for mid-to-senior leaders operating in environments with competing priorities, cross-functional dependencies, and political complexity. Particularly effective for leadership teams needing improved negotiation and alignment across organisations. Also functions as a diagnostic tool before designing development programmes.
