I’m sure I could go into detail about all these gruesome aspects, but I’ll spare the squeamish like me and the excitable people who watch horror movies for fun. I’m on to you guys.
In Plague, the flu epidemic from the Lies has taken a turn for the worse. Kids are becoming deathly ill and Perdido Beach is running out of water (like they didn’t need anything else to be thrown in their face). Albert sends Sam and a crew of people to investigate the problem, and ultimately figure out a solution. With the town virtually defenseless without Sam, Drake/Brittany decide to break free and wreck havoc on the town, a la Darkness style. With kids unable to fight back, someone has to call in the big guns. Plague often left me in a state of ‘oh snap!’, which has only happened a few times since the initial Gone days.
