Wastelanders: Bite

"Need a ride?"

Kid is trying to survive in a world gone mad. Hungry, thirsty and alone in a desert wasteland, she's picked up on the side of the road by Wolf, Dolly, Tank and Pretty Boy: outlaws with big rap sheets and even bigger guns.

But there are rumours of cannibalism in the wastes, and there are sacks in the back of Wolf's jeep which appear to be leaking blood.

In a post-nuclear future where the raiders might just be her best hope of survival, how long will Kid stay hungry before taking a BITE?

Bite is what would happen if Mad Max, Fallout and Borderlands met, drank themselves stupid, ended up spending the night together in a seedy wasteland hovel and partook in some unprotected three-way drunken debauchery. Nine months later a baby would come out into the world kicking and screaming and that baby would be Bite! Pure awesome! The Tattooed Book Geek
