The Plague is an experimental roleplaying game about isolation, paranoia, and despair. As an unnamed plague destroys the world outside, the characters have banded together, shutting themselves out from the world around them. Detached and removed from real world events, they have only a few radio broadcasts and the occasional television update to keep them abreast of the changing world. The long wait has begun…
As the story progresses the characters become more and more isolated. Food, morale, and supplies run low. Tensions mount. Instincts take over, survival overrides consideration, and the fight to stay alive begins.
Help will surely come… Eventually. But who among us can wait that long?
