Zombie Game is a turn-based party game, large group of people to play together.

Players are divided into 2 groups, most of them are humans, small portion of them are zombies.

When game begins:

• Judge tells each player his/her identity, a human or a zombie.
• Judge announce, the number of zombies and humans.

Each turn, players interact with others:

• One player can interact with another player once in a turn
• One player can interact with several players in a turn

If

• Human player interacts with human player, both of them get 1 score!
• Human player interacts with zombie, human player got temporaryly infected, zombie player get 1 score!
• Temporary infected player turns into a permanent infected player after 3 turns! And whose scores are cleared!
• Temporary infected player can cure himself/herself by appling anitdote. Every player, including the zombies has 1 antidote when game started. Temporary infected becomes human again after used the antidote, the antidote can be used only once!
• Antidote has no effect if applied to human player, permanent infected player, or zombie, but the antidote is still consumed.
• Human player interacts with infected player, either temporary or permanent one, human player get infected too.
• Permanent Infected player get 1 sccore when he/she successfully infected a human player.
• Temporary Infected player doesn't score, even he/she infected a human player.

• (Optional) One player can give his/her antidote to another player.

When the turn ends, Judge will announce:

• The number of human and zombies, infected players (both temporary and permanent) will be counts as zombie.
• The score (Not name) of the human and zombie player who got the highest scores.

• All players are turned into Zombies by the end of the turn, zombie wins. The zombie players and permanent infected players are ranked by their scores!
• Only 1 human player survives by ** the end of the turn**, human wins. The survivor wins.
• Game reaches the maximum turns, human wins. The human players are ranked by their scores.
