First the good news: OMGEvil Dead RPG! Now the bad: It’s not a real thing.

There’s been a handful ofEvil Deadgames sent to market, including a Commodore 64 title released in the 80s. With the popularity of platforms like the iPhone, I can’t think of a better time than now for the world to get its 16-bit-styleEvil Deadrole-playing game.
