The military is on high alert, and the citizens are terrified - the city has been infiltrated by a mysterious virus. What they don't know is that patient zero is... YOU!
You first control only one infected and your goal is to spread it to everyone else. Nobody knows that you're infected - that is, until they see you infect someone else. You can assume control of anyone that is infected and once you have infected a number of people you can activate "Frenzy mode", so that all the infected are induced in a blood thirsty rage. These mechanics make for some tactical stealth gameplay, especially while trying to infect the heavily armed military bases, where civilians will be shot on sight regardless of whether they're infected or not.
The screen might be black for a few seconds upon starting the game. It didn't crash, it's completely normal :)
