Last Resort is a cooperative role-playing game set on a tropical island, during a zombie apocalypse. Players take on the roles of Survivors who must work together to stay alive as long as possible on Kahakai Resort Island, a once-idyllic location now crawling with danger.

Survivors can be resort guests, staff members, or people who ended up on the island by chance. Whether you're a vacationer or someone stranded, you’ll have to rely on your limited resources and the relationships you forge with other survivors to make it through.

The island itself is just as much a character in the game. It offers resources that need to be carefully managed, but it also threatens the Survivors’ lives at every turn. The map is deliberately empty and stylized, allowing the Narrator and players to create interesting locations and potentially uncover hidden surprises.

The game’s system is inspired by the resource management mechanics of The Black Hack, later adapted in games like Cthulhu Hack and Mecha Hack. This system emphasizes the strategic use of resources and cooperation among players to ensure survival.
