The Dead Don't Spend

When the economy collapsed, the living were no longer enough.

In a desperate bid to restore production, governments turned to the only untapped resource left-the dead. Reanimated through crude science and industrial necessity, corpses became the perfect workforce: tireless, obedient, and silent.

At least, that's what they believed.

Niles Harrow, a mortuary technician, witnesses the truth firsthand. Beneath the restraints and command spikes, the dead are still aware-trapped inside their decaying bodies, forced to work, forced to remember. As whispers spread among funeral workers and families, a horrifying realization takes hold:

The dead are not mindless.

They are waiting.

When the system begins to fracture, the reanimated rise-not as monsters, but as laborers driven by rage, memory, and a need for justice. Factories burn, the powerful are dragged into their own machines, and the line between victim and executioner vanishes.

Now, as civilization teeters on the edge of total collapse, Niles must make an impossible choice: stand with the dead who were enslaved... or protect the living from a revolution that no longer knows mercy.

Because when the dead stop working-

Nothing survives.
