About the Game
Zeno Clash is an action/fighting game set in a punk fantasy world. The game is played from a first person perspective and the combat is generally up close and brutal.Experience a deep storyline set in a fantastic world. Play the role of Ghat, a man banished by his own brothers and forced to begin a desperate journey past the forbidden desert and to the end of the world.
Nominated in 'Excellence in Visual Art' at the Independent Games Festival, the original visuals, which make full use of the Source engine features, breathe new air in the fantasy game genre. The new close combat mechanics are also a deviation from traditional action in the first-person genre that will feel fresh for new and veteran players.
- Engaging melee combat in first person
The new melee combat system allows players to perform a variety of movements like deflect & elude combos, knockback finisher punches and punishing grab attacks. Learn new attacks as the game progresses and confronts you with more formidable foes.
- Fantastic visuals powered by the Source engine
Players will be immersed in a fantastic world, beautiful and disturbing at the same time. The unprecedented art style brings a fresh new approach to the first person genre. The surreal environments and characters will keep players wanting to discover more.
- Survival mode challenges
Jump right into the action in engaging unlockable "tower challenges". The player must overcome enemy waves to progress through the tower levels. The game will rate the player in different categories like speed and performance. A leaderboards system will rank you against your friends, so the challenge never ends.
- Deep storyline
Players will play the role of Ghat; the son of a impressive hermaphrodite creature called Father-Mother, whose children form the most powerful clan in the city of Halstedom. Ghat must escape from his family and start an incredible journey with his female companion Deadra, who will aid him in the dangerous lands of Zenozoik.
- Bizarre weapons
The game features an unusual arsenal of eccentric weapons that are built from scraps and junk. Hammers and clubs will be the most effective when fighting heavy characters that can only be brought down with extreme force.
- The Zeno Clash Model Pack for Garry's Mod
The pack includes 70 models with the characters and creatures to be used with the popular Source engine mod Garry's Mod. "This is a great addition to the existing library of assets and we really hope the fans will enjoy the content and start developing their own Zeno Clash inspired videos, screens or machinima." says Andres Bordeu from ACE Team. Zeno Clash owners can download the free DLC from the Tools tab in their Steam client.

Unique and strange, short but very enjoyable.
I bought this game when it came out.
Played through this on the 360 back in the day and was happy to purchase it twice, even if only to make sure this wasn't just some feever dream I hallucinated. An absolutely entranceingly hideous art style and a surreal story that floats along like a dream. The game is centered around first person melee combat, which is certainly awkward in ways you can predict, but the exploration of something so underdone is very inspiring in a weird sort of way.
There is nothing in this world quite like Zeno Clash. Admittedly way too short but a fascinating and very fun game nonetheless. Story makes absolutely no fucking sense and the game raises so many questions that go unanswered but the mystery is part of the fun and undoubtedly an entertaining backdrop to the satisfying combat. I leave a positive review on games I liked; that's what I do.
I am like a Corwid, but my obsession is telling people to play the wacky fighter game that's been in your Steam Library since forever. You can do grappling moves in first person! Thanks Chile!
I absolutely loved Zeno Clash. Its surreal visuals and bold character designs drew me in right away. The first‑person melee combat felt satisfying in every punch and dodge. The voice acting immersed me fully in its bizarre world. While the story is deliberately vague and some enemy encounters repeat, the overall experience is captivating and unique. It's a refreshing, artistic indie gem I’m glad I played.
يا جدع اللعبة دي عظمة، ومبنية على الـ Source Engine القديم كمان. إيه الهبل ده! تبص كده وتقول لنفسك: إزاي نفس الـ engine اللي مشغّل CSS ولا حتى... TITANFALL. دي لعبة تقيلة، لازم تجيبها.
Games kinda janky, but overall not bad. Very short tho
I hate that the "throw weapon" button is tied to the dodge button, but besides that it was pretty good
