Description from the publisher:

Nearly 75% of the U.S. population is infected with an airborne disease: the Z-B13 virus. About a quarter of these people are at Stage 3 of the infection, and the numbers of the "Afflicted" are growing by the day. Cities throughout the U.S. Midwest are emptying as healthier citizens flee for the coasts and roving gangs terrorize the highways. Rumors abound as to the cause — a madman with a chip on his shoulder, a military experiment gone wrong, and so on — but if there's any hope for turning back the tide on this illness, someone will need to find a cure. And the best bet for this cure is a small team of survivors unaffected by the virus, searching from city to city as they find and stop the Mastermind behind the Z-B13 virus.

The pulp-adventure cooperative game Zero Hour balances dice placement with a press-your-luck threat track and risk/reward decisions that add tension on every turn. Combined with an optimistic take on a well-loved gaming theme, Zero Hour flips the zombie genre into an epic quest to find the cure for the Z-B13 virus...all in about an hour.
