A virulent pathogen tears through major cities in a matter of weeks, collapsing infrastructure faster than governments can respond. The infected do not simply decay — they mutate under neurological overload, driven by hyper-aggression and distorted sensory processing. Streets empty. Power grids fail. Emergency broadcasts loop into silence. What remains is a fractured landscape of quarantined zones, mass graves, and abandoned highways where survival hinges on movement, trust, and timing. A small group of strangers attempts to cross this dead corridor toward a rumoured evacuation point as military containment measures escalate in the background. The infected are not uniform; some exhibit extreme physiological adaptations — explosive bile dispersal, predatory ambush behaviour, brute-force trauma resistance — forcing constant tactical adaptation. Supplies are scarce, ammunition scarcer. Every safe room is temporary. The true threat isn’t just the horde outside, but the mounting psychological strain within: exhaustion, paranoia, and the slow erosion of hope in a world where rescue may already be a myth.
