''The Sagittarian'' is a series of online "Choose Your Own Adventure" zombie games by Website/{{Newgrounds}} user [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/LorestromeGames Hyptosis]]. Notably [[LighterAndSofter less serious and more light-hearted]] than most zombie-themed games, the game follows a normal, everyday person (A.K.A. you) that wakes one morning to a zombie infection, and thus leaves home with what little supplies he can gather to try and survive. The first game can be found [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/560868 here.]] A short spin-off game called Riverside was also recently released.

** ''Exploders'' are, well, zombies that [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin explode]] [[ActionBomb when you hit them]]. They are passive and they just drift about without attacking anyone, so they're not really a threat, unless some bored survivor is dumb enough to [[VideoGameCrueltyPunishment try and kill it up close]]. [[spoiler: Although they've been used as artillery by at least one horde, commanded by a Smart zombie, see below.]]

* EliteZombies: The zombies get several variants, both common in fiction and a few, more unique ones:
** ''Drifters'' are your average shambling, moaning zombies, with no frills.
** ''Sleepers'' are largely the same as the former, the difference being that instead of wandering about, they just wait idly in dark places to someone to come by (and eat their face).
** ''Runners'' are ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: zombies that run very fast and maul survivors, similar to your average Feral variant. They hang out in roads, presumably because it's nice and flat for them to run in and stumble onto the occasional traveler. Scenarios where they appear are [[EliteMooks usually more likely to end up with you dead]].

** There is one particular zombie, known only as [[TomTheDarkLord "Nate"]], who's a Smart zombie. He's the only one seen so far, and he acts as an ArcVillain for the second game, chasing you and the other survivors commanding other zombies as a Horde Master. He is a great strategist, and he even figured out how to [[spoiler: uses Exploders to break open your stadium/fortress at the beginning of the second game.]]
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Nate is an exceptionally smart zombie that commands a horde, and a recurring villain. We know his name is Nate because he's still wearing what's clearly meant to be a ''Best Buy'' employee uniform, complete with a name tag.
