Each has it's own ingame description (and the editor is too lazy to go ingame and look those up). There are only 8 upgrades available, with 3 tiers to each. Evans City might take place in West part of Pennsylvania, in real life Evans city is located in The state of Pennsylvania. Time is unknown as it is cloudy, but it can be assumed the year is a recent one as the city looks similar to many major cities in America (such as Cincinnati). John not only witnessed the end to all human life in Evans City, but the beginning of something truly horrifying.Įvans City, a major city in (presumably) America that has been completely overrun by zombies caused by a mysterious plague. The nuke had failed to wipe out the zombies. ' No! Sir, we see a lot of undead moving! Shit! It didn’t work! It didn’t work!.' ' Let's pray to whoever’s still up there that we did the right thing.' 'Wh at’s the status on the undead activity?' Listening to the military radio frequency John found, this is what he heard: The nuke has dropped, and the aftermath was unfolding. As a last-ditch effort to wipe the zombies out, the General ordered a nuke to be dropped on the city. The military was trying to evacuate as many people as possible, but could not handle the zombie menace. These zombies are so strong, they can rip car doors off and power-slam hoods (doing minor damage). Surviving soldiers were being sent up north to a nearby river.Īnd just when John thought he was getting the hang of things, then came stronger zombies. Multiple checkpoints had been overrun within minutes. At this point, the military was losing the city faster and faster.

Meaning he beat them and forced them to land.Īfter learning of John's stubbornness, the General sent bombers to run bombing streaks over John. And using the highway signs, John critically damaged each one. So they sent helicopters to eliminate John. The military wasn't just going to stand by and let some (possibly infected as of the military's knowledge) asshole rip through checkpoint after checkpoint.

When John came barreling through the first few checkpoints, nobody could stop him. And to make sure, the military had set up checkpoints throughout the city with orders to shoot anyone on sight approaching the checkpoint. No one is allowed to enter or exit the city. The military had quarantined the city in hopes to contain the zombie epidemic. But then came the first of many checkpoints. John, using his super muscle car, attempts to escape the quarantined city via the Highway.Īt first it was just zombies and abandoned vehicles. The game follows John Creasman, a local mechanic working on his car with his radio on when an Emergency Broadcast airs, alerting him of the outside situation. The first game of the Saga of the Dead created by Evil-dog and SickDeathFiend.
