Escape Dead Island

Escape Dead Island is a survival-mystery game set on Narapela, an island in the Banoi Archipelago, a few miles from Banoi. After the original Dead Island zombie outbreak, you follow would-be documentary journalist Cliff Calo as he investigates the origins of the virus. Narapela guards its secrets, and as Cliff travels deeper into the island, events become increasingly distorted and unpredictable.

Cliff's investigation

Cliff is the son of wealthy media mogul Tom Calo. He has led a carefree life with little interest in the family business, but feels insulted and excluded when his father chooses to hand the company to Cliff's younger sister, Heather. Knowing that Tom wants insight into the unexplained events on Banoi for his broadcasting channels, Cliff and his friends set sail to Narapela to get a story that will prove his worth.

The island also draws in Xian Mei, a top graduate and skilled martial artist who became the first female recruit in the People's Liberation Army's domestic crime squadron. Sent undercover to the Royal Palms Resort on Banoi as part of a secret mission, she was caught up in the zombie outbreak and was later spotted on neighbouring Narapela. As Cliff gathers clues, he searches for the truth behind the apocalyptic outbreak and the secrets of the Dead Island universe.

Explore and survive

You find and use specific tools to reach new areas of the island, and collect clues as you explore. Cliff has no superpowers to protect him, so you must choose between stealth and combat at certain moments. When fighting hordes of infected zombies, you use makeshift weapons and can kill them in a range of ways.

The game connects the events of previous Dead Island games with Dead Island 2.
