The world as we know it ended on October 7th, 2011. There were few survivors as the virus spread to the four corners of the Earth. Those unfortunate enough to contract it joined the hordes of flesh-eating undead. It wasn't long before the dead outnumbered the living a hundred to one.

It's time to go outside, to search for some kind of life, to survive as best they can for as long as possible.

The world ended on October the seventh, 2011. Not with a bang, as some theorists predicted, but with a whimper.

Being dead is less boring than expected.

Los Angeles, the City of Angels. At least, that's what the brochure says. What it fails to mention is the earthquakes. Oh, and the flesh-eating creatures that are lying dormant beneath the concrete, waiting for the chance to surface once again. Their wait is over...
