A. What is Red Scourge?
Red Scourge is a point and click adventure game, settled during the Polish – Soviet War at the beginning of the XX century. Instead of Bolsheviks army, Poland is attacked by a horde of zombies, led by trained officers. Who is behind all of this? We will learn this during the whole story.
B. What's the plot?
We follow story of two people: Tomasz Zarzecki, young and vicious polish army officer, and Joanna Lubieniecka, young daughter of the noble, polish family. They just got engaged, but Tomasz is called to polish army HQ, for a special mission. The separation will change both of them, they will learn about each other's past, character and revise their beliefs. The grand finale of the whole game will take place during the Battle of Warsaw of 1920, and as you can imagine, nothing will be the same. Only war never changes :).

C. Are you gonna to make the whole game at once?
No. This campaign is about funding the first episode (out of 3), in which we learn how it all started, and who our heroes are. We want to make 3 parts to gather funds more easily, and improve our skill and workshop basing on the experience we gain and the community feedback. Each episode will take about 2-3 hours of game for an experienced player.
