Scenes

Scene summaries may contain spoilers
1
Janine is your operator for a mission to retrieve some crucial resources. The location: a tower block whose community went dark after the Resurgence.
2
You enter the tower’s back door and descend to the dark basement. Unfortunately, a zombie has followed you in. You hit it with your torch, then head for the lobby, hoping to shake it.
3
You find a barricade in the lobby. Its position indicates that the inhabitants were attacked from the rear and you realise there are more zoms in the building. With the original zombie blocking your retreat, you’re forced to head up.
4
In an abandoned gym, you find the electronics you need. But when the zombie follows, you are once again forced to flee upward.
5
The pursuing zombie seems to be deliberately making sounds to rouse the others in the building. Janine blames herself for getting you cornered. Then you find a red arrow pointing towards a fire escape. This could be a way out.
6
You’ve been driven to the roof with no obvious escape. But the arrows now point to a neighbouring building. It’s clear you’re intended to jump – but could you even survive it? You have to try.
7
You make the jump – and survive, thanks to the mattresses that have been piled below to cushion your fall. It’s the work of the former residents, some of whom survived. Janine tells you to return home for a break, but only a short one. There’s work still to do.
