Opis

When a pharmaceutical corporation loses control of a weaponized pathogen, the resulting anarchy transforms the average mid-Western city of Red Mesa into a quarantined battleground. Overrun with roving bands of mercenary death squads, nightmarish creatures, and countless undead, the stage is set for all-out chaos. Missing the initial outbreak and oblivious to the danger, Laura, a young pharmaceutical engineer with a promising future, wakes to find her world not as it was. After exposure to the deadly virus, she fatefully crosses paths with a mysterious drifter named Andrew-a man in ruin because of his past. Unwittingly sucked into the vortex of the virus's aftermath, the unlikely pair is forced to undertake a harrowing journey that will forever change their lives. Together, they blindly spiral into darkness and must somehow learn to share the strength in each other to overcome their fears that they might survive the night. Their search for the truth and a vaccine will lead them into an unpredictable mire of danger, secrets, betrayal, and a conspiracy at the genetic level. Trust will be tested and old wounds will be reopened as the past finally catches up. Will the deadly strain be the key to their survival? Or will it destroy them from the inside out? Using prominent themes and elements that defined the classic survival-horror genre, The 'T' Anomaly seeks to delve into the human psyche by exploring the profound effects of violence, death, loss, fear, and sanity through the use of philosophy, theology, ideology, and social morality. Without rule of law, anything can happen, and those that wish to survive are quick to adopt the mantra "Can I kill it before it kills me?"
