About Zoblins

Zoblins is a free puzzle game you play right in your browser. No download, no account, no install.

The story

The mad Brewmaster has been busy. One bubbling batch too many, and a whole village of goblins came out of it green, groaning and very much undead. Now they are the Zoblins: they claw their way out of the graveyard and shamble forward, walking straight into whatever is in front of them.

There is a cure. The Brewmaster's own machine, the Regoblinator, can turn them back, if they can reach it. They will never get there on their own. That is where you come in.

How it plays

You never control a Zoblin directly. Instead you hand out jobs. Turn one into a Bonebuilder and it lays a staircase of bones across a chasm. Make one a Basher and it punches a tunnel through a hill. A Blocker stands with its arms out and turns the crowd around; a Digger tunnels straight down; a Springer becomes a living springboard. Give the right job to the right Zoblin at the right moment and the whole horde follows the path you made.

Every level asks you to cure a certain number before the time runs out. Lose a few on the way and you might still make it. Lose too many and you will have to think again. Pause any time to plan, rewind when it goes wrong, and when you are truly stuck, Show Me plays the solution.

Inspired by a classic

Zoblins is a love letter to the classic Lemmings games that so many of us grew up with: the joy of a crowd marching to its doom and the one clever idea that saves them. It is an independent game made from scratch, and it is not affiliated with or endorsed by the owners of Lemmings.
