Introduction
Scenario
After a hard night of partying after the dreaded POPL exam, you wake up to find yourself in the
middle of town, your friends nowhere to be found.
As you try and recall how you ended up here, you hear a low rumbling sound coming from the
alleyway near you.
A horde of decaying zombies suddenly appears out from the alleyway, their clothes tattered, blood
and bone sticking out of their bodies.
Not soon after, the zombies notice you and charge towards you, trampling over each other, their
rumbles turning into screams and cries.
But in the spur of the movement, you suddenly realize...
You forgot to hand in your SEPR assessment!
Your goal is to survive and defeat the horde of zombies and get back to your accommodation, to hand
in your SEPR assessment before the deadline is over.
