‡PJ Zomboid RPG + Spiffo ‡

[ Apocalypse Story; The infection is known to spread through saliva, blood, and later through airborne water droplets. However, the player is immune to the latter form of infection. After becoming infected, the player will begin to experience anxiety and nausea, which will progressively worsen until they eventually succumb to the infection. There is no cure for the Knox infection, and it is invariably fatal.

The video game begins on July 9, 1993, approximately three days after the United States Army has established a lockdown surrounding the infected areas of Muldraugh, Riverside, West Point, and Rosewood, dubbed the Knox Evacuation. General John McGrew, a U.S. Army general in charge of containment measures within the Knox Exclusion Zone, later releases a statement about the event, telling people to remain calm and stating that "There is no evidence of any deaths within the exclusion zone."

On July 11, the WHO suspends all non-medical or military international flights to protect other countries from infection. Riots begin to break out in cities across the United States, and curfews are imposed in New York City and Miami after riots cause multiple deaths and injuries. Later that day, an image of West Point is leaked to the media, showing a one-armed man with blood at his mouth, standing in a street littered with corpses.

On July 14, thousands of infected people break through the military blockade surrounding the exclusion zone, leading the military to retreat. Louisville also becomes infected around this time, though the player can visit Louisville on July 9 and find it infested with zombies. As the exclusion zone widens, it is revealed that the virus is beginning to spread through the air. In a last-ditch effort, the United States destroys the bridges spanning the Ohio River, trapping the survivors and zombies within Knox County.

Finally, on July 17, the virus is confirmed in Cincinnati, several cities in England, Mogadishu, Seoul, and Okinawa. After several days without commenting, General John McGrew gives a final broadcast to the remaining survivors, informing them to take up arms against the undead to defend the United States and its future, claiming that they have not been forgotten and that the army will come to their rescue. After that, the radio and television networks are cut off forever, implying that the entire world has fallen against Knox's infection and is now at the mercy of the zombies and the threats that humans can represent in times of crisis. ]

[ Spiffo's story; She is simply an anthropomorphic animal that was mutated from a cross between a human and a Tanuki, being born in a laboratory located deep in the forest of Okinawa. Spiffo was able to escape in the middle of the zombie apocalypse which also reached the laboratory where she was held captive. Once she escaped she got down to business and began to survive on her own, having the challenge of learning to speak, read and write in a language she had not been taught before. ]
