The Walking Dead occurs simultaneously with events from the original comic and television adaption, with the onset of a zombie apocalypse that overwhelms much of society. Characters in the game come to call the zombies as "Walkers", as they move slowly and are only drawn to the living by loud noises. Though initially believed that being bitten by a zombie would be the only way to become a zombie, it is later discovered that the act of dying with a functional brain can cause one to be re-animated as a zombie after death. As with the comic and television series, the game's events occur in the state of Georgia.
In Episode 4, In Savannah, the survivors find it overrun with Walkers. Upon finding a boat, they make plans to secure supplies from the Crawford community, only to learn that it has been overrun with Walkers. Clementine is kidnapped by a mysterious man, and Lee gets bitten by a Walker, leaving him little time to save her.
