Zombies!!! is a multi-player board game realsed in 2002 by Twilight Creations Inc. Now that World of Warcraft has dominated the market, and has starting making more and more gamers anti-social, Zombies!!! is a boardgame thats just too much fun to pass up.

In a town where the zombie apocalypse has been put into full motion, you and your team splits up to find the best way to the helipad to high tail it out of town and into safer areas. However, with each new street you wander down, and in each new building check, zombies have a risk of not only threatening your life gathering in masses very quickly. Will you be able to make it to the helipad before your friends?

The rules are simple. You are given 30 map tiles, 50 card event deck, 100 plastic zombies, 6 plastic shotgun guys, 30 life tokens, 60 bullet tokens, and 2 dice. Each town card tells you how many zombies to place on the card, how many life tokens, and how many bullet tokens. If there is nomention of zombies, you place one at each road intersection. You then choose your pawn and start in town square. To battle a zombie you must roll one die. If you roll a 4 or above you win! Congratulations, you are now a zombie hoarder. Simple right?

The best part about the game is that since you have town tile cards that you shuffled before each game you always end up with a new map and unpredictable zombie madness! Also, there are now 7 expansion sets that allow you to relive zombie movie classics like “Dawn of the Dead” and “Day of the Dead”. With each added expansion you get new event cards, new zombies (like super zombies) and more tokens.

Expansions:

Zombies!!! 2: Zombie Corps(e)
Zombies!!! 3: Mall Walkers
Zombies!!! 3.5: Not Dead Yet

Some games however can get pretty lengthy and players may encounter a zombie shortage…great for real life, but terrible for your zombie killing spree in this game. Don’t fret! Twilight Creations Inc. offers a Bag O’ Zombies to help the invasion go full force!
