Barricade Night
Play Barricade Night free online. Nail planks over five cabin windows faster than zombies rip them off, grab supply crates from the sky and survive every night.
How to Play Barricade Night
You are holed up in a small cabin, and when night falls the dead come shuffling out of the dark toward its five windows. You cannot fight them. All you can do is nail planks over the windows and keep them boarded until the sun comes up.
Tap a window to nail a plank onto it. Each window holds up to four planks. A zombie that reaches a window starts ripping planks off, one every couple of seconds, and gives up and wanders away after tearing off a few. If it finds a window with no planks left, it climbs in, and the night is over.
You start with six planks in hand and two on each window. More come from supply crates that float down on parachutes. Tap a crate to grab three planks, but be quick: crates vanish after a few seconds.
Survive until dawn to win the night. You score a bonus for each night survived, plus points for every plank still up. Each new night is longer, zombies arrive more often and they rip planks off faster.
Controls
Touch
- Tap a window to nail a plank. Tap a falling supply crate to grab it.
Mouse
- Click windows and crates the same way.
Keyboard
- Keys 1 to 5 nail a plank on that window, counting from the left. Space or C grabs the supply crate. P or Escape pauses, M mutes.
Tips and Tricks
- Do not spend all your planks on one window. Two planks on every window is safer than four on one.
- Watch the lawn. A window with a zombie heading toward it needs a plank before the zombie arrives.
- Crates are your only source of planks. Grab every one, even if your hands are full right now.
- Zombies give up after a few planks. A well-boarded window can outlast a zombie on its own.
About the Game
Barricade Night is a quick, tense survival game about juggling. There are five windows, a handful of planks and never quite enough time, so every tap is a choice about which window can wait.
It is set on a moonlit lawn outside a wooden cabin, with shambling green zombies and crates drifting down on parachutes. It plays in short nights that build into a long siege. Your best score is kept in this browser and can go on the Top 10 board.
