Those infected either draw the black queen and die, draw an ace and receive superpowers, or draw the joker and are bizarrely mutated.

Мир Чехова — как тонкий свет утра: в нём нет ослепительного блеска, но всё видно ясно и правдиво. Здесь нет громких событий, но каждое слово откликается тихим звоном правды. Его герои живут — просто, неловко, часто больно — и в их обыденности открывается подлинная драма человеческого существования. Сдержанный, проницательный, нежно ироничный, Чехов видит человека без прикрас, но с бесконечным состраданием. Он не судит и не оправдывает — лишь вслушивается в паузы между словами, в тишину после смеха, в сердце, которое всё ещё умеет чувствовать.
