Save the Animals! Zoochosis

Save the Animals! Indie Developer Clapperheads Announces Bodycam Horror Simulation Zoochosis

A zookeeper’s worst nightmare is unfolding… will you survive the night?

Exciting indie developer Clapperheads invites you to spend a terrifying evening as a newly employed night zookeeper where the animals are not as they first seem . . . Welcome to Zoochosis, the heart-pounding new bodycam horror simulation game coming to PC via Steam in Q2 2024.

Zoochosis will introduce you to a spine-chilling new horror experience as the main gameplay view is shot from a bodycam perspective strapped to your chest, capturing the horrific events of your first night shift in a zoo. The animals need feeding and checking on, but as the night progresses, you discover that a few of the animals seem to be falling sick, infected with some kind of parasite that is turning them into bloodthirsty mutants with terrifying consequences. Will you be able to cure them before the parasite spreads to the other animals in the zoo or will you die trying? Either way, it’s going to be a long night. . .

“We are thrilled to unveil our latest horror project, Zoochosis, to the world.” Commented Oleg Gaze, CEO and Co-Founder at Clapperheads. “We’re always on top of trends, and we think bodycams are a killer way to amp up the tension and really get players really in the heart of the game. And trust me, in Zoochosis, there’s a lot going down! We have handpicked a theme that we feel is a real crowd-pleaser, not just for our team but for many more people; animals. Not just animals, but the big focus on saving them, stopping them from vanishing off the face of the earth. Then bam! You’re thrown into this crazy scenario where as a night zookeeper, a parasite infects your animal friends, and it’s a matter of survival for you and the animals in your care.”
