Description
You play as Frank West, a freelance photo-journalist, and you're on a hunt for the scoop of a lifetime. Following a lead to the town of Willamette, he finds that the town has been practically taken over by zombies. Trying to get away, Frank makes his way to the Willamette shopping mall hoping he can find help there.
The merchandise in the stores gives you many options to use to defend yourself from the walking dead. Ever the journalist, you must also find out what is behind this epidemic. You'll also interact with other survivors that you find that can help clue you in as to what happened. Try not to be eaten or becoming one of the zombies yourself.
