Why Acworth?

Most zombie games drop you in a fictional city or a procedurally generated nowhere. We're doing something different: Deadhead is set in the real Acworth, Georgia—a town of about 25,000 people northwest of Atlanta, with real streets, real landmarks, and real geography.

Why? Because a real place has texture that's impossible to fake. The weird dead-end by the old rail depot. The shortcut through the church parking lot. The way Main Street doglegs at the tracks. When you learn Acworth's map, you're learning something that exists—and that knowledge transfers to survival instincts in the game.
