Zombie Experiment Quest!
You are a contract killer, at least, you think you are.
You have your memory wiped of the events of each kill you carry out, as a way of plausible deniability.
Things have been getting slow lately, you rejected the Putin Contract, you owed the Russian a few favors and gave him the heads up, two days later the contract was taken down due. He sent you a gift package, the man knows you love that cheap vodka.
Then you come across this contract, hidden in a spam-mail you got.
*Seeking expert killer, scavenger, survivor for long term One Year Contract. 10,000,000 Euro Payment Upfront.*
Could be fake, but worth looking into....

After four hours of digging, you find out that half of your friends in the field have taken up this job. Several of them have gone black on the vitals, but they are still moving.
You contact a few of your friends, and find the contact number. This isn't about the money anymore. This is about saving your friends.

"So I am going in without my memories, just my instincts, and a false set of memories..." You say in a low voice as this is explained to you.
Apparently this is a Zombie test facility, with several different types of zombies that were created based off the Zombie viruses in popular fiction.
several of your friends were now Zombies, and their bodies were in the process of being decontaminated so they can receive proper burials without risk of rising again.
A few were alive, and were extracted. They decided to not take the money and leave.
"I guess I am going to have to say no." You say, now that you know there is nothing you can do.
"We would offer the collective payment of all of your friends..." You glare at the man.
"The ones who have died will still have the money go to their family and friends, i am not suggesting you take their money, I am simply suggesting that we give you....170,000,000 Million in total."
"What is the catch?" You ask, sitting back down.
"You see, we have multiple test domes, because we have multiple viruses, but there is one dome we have not tested with a true killer..." The man puts more sugar in his coffee, and you just drink yours black.
"It has all of the viruses inside, at the same time." You just stare at him.
"Have a good day." You reply, and get back up.
"You would keep your memories, but you would have to act out as an average citizen, more or less. We would give you a set of memories to act out." You pause. With all of your memories you could survive no doubt, in fact you are certain that several of your friends died just because they didn't have the memories.
"Why me? You could have offered this to any of the others." You reply, and the man laughs.
"All of your friends have said that you were the best among them. Not the fastest, strongest, or the smartest, but you could lead, that you had an animal instinct, and a strange ability to sense when something dangerous was about to happen, almost like spiderman." he chuckled.
You did not.
"We can bump it up to 200,000,000, and you can choose the set of memories, and we will give you a list of the Zombies, the strengths and weaknesses, how they spread, and you can do research since they come from preexisting franchises."
"How long until the viruses are unleashed?" You ask, and the man smiles.
"Two weeks, you have two weeks, but any attempt to prevent it from starting will result in you quitting."
You sigh.
"I'll do it."

Zombie types:

Pros: Easy to kill when alone.
Cons: You are already infected, but the people you are working for have a cure.
Dying Light : More durable then your basic zombie.
Pros: Electricity can kill them.

Some zombie types will attack each other.
There are people like Alice from Resident Evil that will gain powers if infected with the correct virus.
There are aspects of each world in this dome, you must find them to exploit them.
