**Undead City is an animated web series with the visual style of an 8-bit, NES-era video game that is set five years after the entire world has been mysteriously afflicted by corpses returning from the dead and a dramatic rise in global temperatures. In this parched world devoid of most plant life, the living are forced to do whatever they can to survive among cannibalistic zombies with insatiable appetites.** br br In Episode 1 we meet Jacob, whose travels have brought him to the town of Ennead City (or "Undead City" as the surviving locals have come to call it), where he plans to sleep one night, maybe forage for food and supplies in the morning, and then be on his way. Fate, it would seem, has other plans.
