The world of commerce and decadence has given way to a world of responsibility and survival. An epidemic of apocalyptic proportions is causing the dead to rise around the globe to feed on the living. After a few months, society has collapsed: there is no government, no supermarkets, no post offices, no cable television, and no internet. In a world ruled by the dead, everyone is forced to finally take life into their own hands. The undead are almost everywhere and pose a constant threat. However, perhaps the greatest danger to your survival in this horrifying new world comes from your fellow humans. The game includes a game board, four armies in different colors, 64 territory cards, two wild cards, 60 adventure cards, a ring marker, and three red and two black dice.
