3The concept of Dark Inside is based on a familiar concept, the ZombieApocalypse. But it's without zombies. Rather than being mindless monsters, ''something'' turns the majority of citizens into amoral, thrill-seeking, violent monsters who retain full brain capacity and personality traits. Their only pleasure is to hunt and kill, for the sake of it.

5In this new, terrifying reality, four teens from different lifestyles must survive whatever awaits them and find safety...if they have the will to.
