Mission: Find the cure for the zombie outbreak that started on Camp Zama
four years ago. If you are caught, you will be turned into one of the undead
. good luck.

Narration:
Nearly 200 brave children, adults - and even a dog - gathered at Sagamihara
Family Housing Area to battle the undead with foam dart blasters in "Humans
vs. Zombies 2: The Revenge," a direct sequel to the event that Child and
Youth Services hosted on Camp Zama in 2019.

Interview: Brandon Bergeron, Director, Youth Sports and Fitness

Narration:
The primary mission for the humans was to locate the cure for the zombie
outbreak. However, they also had to complete other tasks such as finding
barrels to establish safe zones, collecting zombie tissue samples to
synthesize a cure, and more.

They had to do all this, of course, while on the run from zombies. If a
human was caught, they turned into one of the undead and had to chase down
the remaining humans. Less than 45 players survived to the end of the game
as humans.
