“Everything Will Be Fine” is an informative mini-series by ForkLog and the developers of the gaming metaverse Undeads. Explore a post-apocalyptic world, survive, and earn in the new AAA-class Web3 game.
Episode 1: Patient Zero
In 2035, the HÈL virus broke free from the secret “Rubicon” laboratory, turning the world into post-apocalyptic ruins. The few survivors joined factions in a struggle for survival and control over resources. Trading their last satoshis for an NFT rifle and a bag of radioactive mushrooms, the ForkLog editorial team and Whimsy Games studio recall how it all began.
