In this strategy game based on the action blockbuster starring Brad Pitt, outlast the zombie pandemic by assuming any of six military or Special Forces roles. Players begin in North America and spread out across the world to battle Zombie’s or “Z’s” using a combination of weapons, tactics, and unique abilities. Work together, and choose wisely how boldly to strike at the zombie hordes. Being too timid may result in the entire world becoming overrun, but act too aggressively and you could be overwhelmed by zombies and turned against your allies by becoming a Z yourself. Zombie hordes appear in four different strength levels—defeat them with the right combination of strategy and luck, using the six, eight, ten, and twelve-sided dice included. The starting layout is random so that no game is the same twice! Will you succeed in clearing the world of Zs, or will you become one of the infected? Challenging and action-packed, this game is a must-have for both strategy gamers and fans of the movie.

The escalation deck and weapon deck keep the game interesting and the different dice keep the random nature alive. Feels similar to Pandemic. Definitely worth the buy. I would recommend the…
