About the game
New expansion under development for Off the Dead From the publisher website: Less than a week after the onset of a virus that has transformed a large part of the California population in tanned and rabid cannibals, Venice Beach is the site of another disaster. Vicious creatures, evil and mentally undeveloped, land on the beaches: the military. With this first expansion of Off the Dead, play a new survivor, go in search of new equipment and slaughtered new nasty zombies. This new chapter also introduces another way to win: scenarios. Flee on a desert island, find an antidote against the virus or eradicate all stiffs with a nuclear bomb, it is you who decide! Included in the box: The rocket launchers, flamethrowers, smoke grenades, shovels, a soldier severely burne, a mad scientist, a general freak, zombie dogs, a bunker, a hypermarket ... Off The Dead? What else!
