We are in a video game. It is also life.
Sam and Pig are avatars in the video game Zombie Thoughts. Armed with just a book, a rubber chicken, and the help of the audience, they try to overcome Sam’s anxiety and defeat the monsters the evil Machine throws at them. The only path to victory is if students make a series of choices that help Sam and Pig learn empathy for each other.
