Byte of the Dead is a zombie apocalypse game set during the early days of an outbreak. A contagion has spread rapidly around the world. Civil order has broken down and the cities are in chaos. You are fleeing the main cities looking for a safe place. Traveling south from the city of Spokane you crash your truck outside of the small town of Fairfield. Now you must find shelter before you are overwhelmed by the hordes of the undead. 

Upgrading your shelter unlocks access to new weapons, food, ammo and an escape vehicle. Your shelter will also give you access to fully voiced rescue missions. You can also assemble a vehicle to escape the unrelenting hordes of zombies. Upgrading your base will be necessary for your survival.
