How it begins
The game gives dictionary definitions for 'plague' and 'redux', and warns "The following text adventure contains scenes of graphic violence, gore and strong language." You are asked if you want to read the introduction.
It's Thursday evening. You are Stacie, a young woman returning from a night out with her friends. You are waiting for a train at a London Underground station, when it's overrun by zombies. In the ensuing panic, your friends become lost and you are trapped in the station, weaponless and thirsty.
