The cause and origin of the Knox Infection are unknown. After about July 18, most of these channels go off air. The lore of Project Zomboid and the Knox Event is given through radio broadcasts and TV channels.

Project Zomboid is The Indie Stone's first commercially released game. Since then, Project Zomboid has appeared on Steam Early Access and continues development to this day. In 2011, The Indie Stone were subject to a high-profile setback within the indie gaming community following the theft of two laptops containing the game's code. It was one of the first five games released on the alpha funding section of the gaming portal Desura. The game is set in the post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested exclusion zone of the fictional Knox County, Kentucky, United States, where the player is challenged to survive for as long as possible before inevitably dying.

In the game, instead of a hero with superpowers, we are managing an ordinary person. Your survival skills are put to the ultimate test in the sandbox game. In Project Zomboid, players are guests in a city occupied by zombies. Project Zomboid is a fun zombie game that combines a Minecraft-like structure with the leveling system and isometric camera angle of action RPG games.
