Like all horrible things, the story begins in a small town in Bumfuck, Nowhere. It all began with with a flash in the sky, followed by a man crashing into downtown.
...Blah blah blah, he was decaying, etc, etc. Point is, dude was a zombie and downtown had a nice little spat with him infecting people. Sounds like the end of days, right?
Turns out, it wasn't. It only took a couple of hours, but the US military was deployed against the issue and our quaint little town was sealed off from the rest of America. The zombie apocalypse was doomed to failure, particularly because only an idiot would go near Patient Zero.
Fortunately, Bumfuck is proudly amongst the state's most educated areas. It helped that the local popularity of zombies amongst town youths made it so even the stupidest of them knew the rules of Zombieland. Just... walk a bit faster than 'shambling corpse' speed and grab a rock. You'll be fine.
So what now? Well, the government is currently sweeping around to take care of the ordeal, and citizens are mostly advised to stay in doors. That's where you come in.
You're either a citizen waiting for this to blow over, or you're a soldier helping cleaning things out. Either way, your next week is going to be interesting.

{IN THE EVENT OF ENCOUNTERING A BRAIN EATER (zombie rules}
Zombies are a mix of classic Romero and Return of the Living Dead.
They can be destroyed by destroying their brain and electrocution, but not by anything else. Cutting off limbs just sends more after you.
Burning them is regarded as a terrible idea, since it potentially causes the infection to become airborne. Anyone caught burning zombies will be shot. Survivors will be shot again.
They don't want flesh, they just want your brains.
Generally intelligent enough to use tools and speak. They're too stupid to talk well, however. In theory, an undead can be domesticated, as the desire for braaaaains seems to be psychological, rather than physical. However, only a moron would try to do that because it's a zombie, man.
They're slow. Like, really slow. Because of this, they're only really dangerous if they're in big crowds, which is an incredibly rare occurrence.
Use of ammo guns by non-military personnel is not advised, as it is likely to attract the attention of the undead. In the event of a zombie encounter, civilians are authorized to use anything else they feel will protect themselves.
