Even I question the usefulness of a zombies board game. The whole point of zombies as an environment is the frantic anxiety that is created in the survivors as well as the people watching – and, let’s be honest, I’ve never felt frantic anxiety while playing a board game.
But, it’s zombies and it has the potential to be better than it sounds – so, without further ado, I give you Zombies!!! the board game.
The goal of the game is to either kill 25 zombies or make it to the helipad and escape the town that is represented by the board.
From Wikipedia:
Players must decide whether to avoid combat and allow the other players to dispose of the zombies for them, or to strike out and collect the various items that the board and event cards provide. Once the Helipad tile is placed, the players can choose between racing to the helicopter (which will often result in death); holding back and hoping to rush in when another player dies; or ignoring the helipad entirely and trying to kill 25 zombies.
