Overview

In Zombicide, players team up as survivors in a city overrun by hordes of the undead. Using a modular board, each game presents a unique and dangerous landscape to navigate, teeming with various types of zombies. Players must strategically use their action points each turn to move, scavenge for weapons, fight zombies, and complete objectives to survive.

With a limited number of actions and hordes of zombies closing in, teamwork is crucial. Each survivor has unique abilities that can be upgraded throughout the game. As you eliminate zombies, you'll level up, gaining new skills but also attracting even larger waves of the undead, creating a tense and escalating challenge. The game can end in victory if the objectives are met, or in a gruesome defeat if the zombies overwhelm the survivors.
