In order to stop the epidemic ravaging North America, the CDC created a vaccine to supply to the public. Unfortunately, the “cure” had adverse effects—namely, it turned a great chunk of the population into zombies. Those who were naturally immune to the virus were also immune to the vaccine; but nobody, even the healthiest person, is safe from the bite of a zombie. The human population quickly dwindled while the undead numbers were on the rise. All survivors were forced to pick up arms and look for safety on the road. Outrunning the dead isn’t easy, especially when there are so few places to truly find rest, and even fewer members of humanity who are willing to reach out to help one another. Bobby Sutton, an amusement park owner in Jacksonville, Florida wasn’t one of those people. With the help of Alice Thatcher, he fortified his amusement park and made it a safe place for dozens upon dozens of survivors. Together, they sent out a broadcast to instruct any and all people looking for shelter to come to Florida.
The Zombie Park is an original role play game set in a fictional amusement park (Coaster Land) in Jacksonville, Florida. The game centers on the survivors of the zombie epidemic as they try and rebuild a safe community together in Sutton’s once very unpopular park.
