Parallel Zombies is a PVP gamemode ran on the Parallel Events server, inspired by Mineplex's Zombie Survival gamemode. The gamemode consists of two teams, the Survivors and the Zombies. The Survivors have to try and be the last one standing while being bombarded by player controlled and AI zombies. There is no time limit, the game ends when there is one Survivor left standing.

When the game begins, a player is randomly chosen as the Alpha Zombie. AI controlled zombies will spawn every 12 seconds at preset "graveyard" locations, in groups of 1 to 3. Player controlled zombies, when killed, will respawn in a random graveyard. When a Survivor is killed, they will turn into a normal Zombie and respawn at a graveyard.

Roles

There are currently two roles, Survivors and Zombies, each with specific loadouts and/or abilities.
