From publisher blurb:
“Taking the zombie genre to new depths.”
It’s 1986; American and Soviet nuclear subs collide deep in the Pacific Ocean. When the warheads aboard detonate near a fault line, the resulting atomic tsunami drowns L.A. with a 200-foot wave of radioactive water. And riding the crest comes The Surfing Dead!
Player characters are refugees, fleeing freeway gridlock as an all-encompassing flood swallows the trapped motorists behind them. But drowning isn’t the only danger, because there’s something in the water—legions of bloated, flesh-hungry ghouls! The only safe place is higher ground, and getting to it means getting through fellow survivors!
The Surfing Dead is dual-statted for both Basic Roleplaying: Universal Game Engine (BRP) and the rules-lite, cinematic Everywhen system, based on Simon Washbourne’s Barbarians of Lemuria. 4 pre-generated characters and maps included.
Quite possibly the greatest post-apocalyptic nuclear disaster 80s aquatic zombie survival horror adventure ever written!
