World of the Dead is a 2010 PC zombie horror/survival MMO game developed by Living Dead Media, founded by Night of the Living Dead director George Romero, and produced and marketed by BigBoy Games. Unlike traditional zombie games which are generally first-person shooters, World of the Dead invites players to use strategy to scavenge for food, build shelters, find other survivors and kill zombies within a randomly generated town. Players can share saved versions of their personal sandbox town with other players using the "Swap" function.
