We are the Plague is a tactical role-playing game with turn-based combat in a dark fantasy setting. The events of the game take place during the time of the great Pestilence, which destroys entire cities. The united rulers are trying together to defeat the epidemic, but every dead person becomes a mortal threat to all living ones. At one point, there is a precarious balance between life and death, and neither side can gain the upper hand. Only you can turn the tide of events by siding with Pestilence and quenching your thirst for revenge.
