The iconic 1985 film, Return of the Living Dead, was instrumental in defining the zombie genre. Our officially licensed tabletop roleplaying game, based on the Everyday Heroes™ system, celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Return of the Living Dead film franchise and provides endless adventure across 4 decades of Trioxin-fueled havoc.
George Romero’s original zombie masterpiece, Night of the Living Dead, was based on true events. However, Romero was forced to remove certain facts and the events were covered up. But now, the Living Dead are back with a Return of the Living Dead game world chock-full of morbid zombie mayhem.
Trioxin zombies are awesome: Tear them apart, blow them up, burn them to a crisp…they just keep coming! Join the fight against zombie hordes during outbreaks set across multiple decades or walk among the dead yourself, driven on by the terrible Pain of Being Dead, and hunt for living brains! When there’s no more room in hell, the dead will party!
This book provides everything you need to recreate the frightful events of 1969 and after, including the new Living Dead Origin, 3 new Classes, and a host of zombie statblocks.
