Dead Island with Jesse - Part 1

1 hour 33 minutes

Jesse is back and what else would we talk about but the book based on Techland's zombie game, Dead Island!? It's pretty bad! And more than a little racist. And there will be some trigger warnings in parts 2 and 3. But episode 1 should be fine if you're cool with the gore and the subtle racism. So that's a thing.

Check out Jesse on the NoClip Podcast. You can find him on twitter @Guarascia

Book Synopsis

Welcome to Banoi, a tropical island where you can leave the stresses of the world behind...

Welcome to the Royal Palms Resort - which offers its guests from around the world the ultimate in luxury and relaxation...

Welcome to the holiday paradise where your dreams should come true...but where a nightmare is about to begin....

Because a mysterious epidemic has suddenly, and without warning, broken out across the island. The local islanders, hotel guests and workers alike are struck down - only to rise again, craving the flesh and the blood of the still living. For four of the holidaymakers and a handful of others scattered around Banoi who are seemingly unaffected by the plague, they must face the awful, terrifying reality of a zombie apocalypse. Now there is only one thing left to do: survive.

Welcome to Dead Island... a paradise to die for.
