Pandemic Express is a game about a bunch of humans escaping a bunch of zombies. The humans, who all resemble French mimes in plague masks, are attempting to board and pilot a train to freedom. The zombies, who all resemble horrible goblins who ve crept out of a Hieronymus Bosch painting, are out to stop them, using their fangs and claws to monch and clonch the humans to death. Zombies can respawn forever, and dead humans turn into zombies, so games last until either everybody is a zombie or at least one human has made it out of the map with their precious humanity intact.
