setting
The Ogame is one of hundreds of ships lost in space after the destruction of the home planet Earth. Since terraforming wasn't made possible when it was destroyed the entirety of the human race exist in space ships. The technology is very advanced and life on the ships is not that bad but you can't really call it home.
plot
The ship runs scans on certain planets that may be suitable for human life. During one of the landings they picked up something, it wasn't an artifact or something like that, it was a bacteria. The bacteria was nicknamed Salanum and taken to a research facility for further study. After about a month after it was taken Salanum infected several people. One day later they were all dead. Two hours after death they came back.
So basically the plot is zombies in space. Simple but sweet.
