What's So Rotten About Zombies Defending An Ancient Temple
This is a game about zombies that protect an ancient temple, with the goal of defeating their enemies and exploring dark themes such as religion, worshiping evil gods, violence, death, mutilation, gore, etc... The players use two six-sided dice to roll for actions. There are three people playing in total (GM included), pencils/paper allowed, approximately 2 hours required per player/game master role and an additional 30 minutes if you're designing a god or temple with your group of characters..
