Rooks Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Anyone else played this? I guess it was a Kickstarter not too long ago, but now they are in full swing. My buddy brought it over a few days ago and it was super fun. It's a collaborative style game (i.e. you work together against the Zombies) and you all either win or lose. Anyone else out there played it? Anyone already ready for the expansion pack (I believe coming in March)? http://guillotinegames.com/en/ Link to comment
katscratch Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 That looks awesome! My favorite game in the last year is Pandemic, so I bet I'd love this one. Link to comment
This is Seth Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I saw this on kick starter when it was getting funded. If I remember correctly, it plays an awful lot like Last Night on Earth. If you want to see a fun zombie game, try the one that had an entire table of geeks trying to kill CoreyD about a month ago. You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that... Link to comment
Thilde Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 My friend just bought this game! We haven't played it yet but it looks AWESOME. I'm a huge fan of collaborative games. tiny threadjack: Anyone ever played Level 7 [Escape]? That's another collaborative game, a new one to us, only tried playing it once, and it seemed like the hardest game known to humankind...we struggled to make sense of the instruction booklet and it felt like key pieces of info were missing or explained in a counter-intuitive way. BUT, a significant portion of our group was distracted trying to keep steaks from burning on the grill, so that may have had something to do with it. /threadjack Link to comment

I was running down streets with a fireman's axe and the other players had the zombies fleeing in fear of my badassery.

Katinka Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 That looks awesome! My favorite game in the last year is Pandemic, so I bet I'd love this one. Zombiecide was my first collaborative game, and I absolutely love it. My husband then bought me Pandemic for my birthday, which is awesome, although I think I still prefer zombiecide. So yes - you'd love this, too. Link to comment
chairohkey Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Bought and played Pandemic with the wife last night, super fun. Now she wants a game to go head to head with just the two of us, any suggestions? Link to comment
This is Seth Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Did you two win? That game is notoriously hard. What kind of games are you into? Card games or miniatures on map games(like Risk). You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that... Link to comment
chairohkey Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Did you two win? That game is notoriously hard. What kind of games are you into? Card games or miniatures on map games(like Risk). We won because we noob cheated (i.e. not moving the Outbreak marker and clearing the board of disease cubes once a cure was discovered). Apparently reading rules is for chumps. Probably leaning towards strategy games with board and pieces. I was leaning towards Agricola Lite. Link to comment
This is Seth Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 I still haven't played Agricola. Another table was playing it at a game night I was at... and it sounded kinda... mehh. I understand the lore but I don't wanna be a farmer. I wanna be a viking. The player vs player games I was watching reviews on today are: Rune Age : a deck building game that can be player vs player, co-op, or player vs environmentDeadwood : a spaghetti western where you're using resource management and worker placement, but... you can shoot your opponentConquest of Nerath : Risk + a bit of D&D. Constant war against your opponents and the ability to dungeon crawl? This will most likely be on my table soon. You ever see those guys who look like they totally used to be in shape? I'm working to get back to that... Link to comment
Shoshie Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 GLORY TO ROME!! Seriously, most fun strategy game ever. The cheap version has crappy art, but we have the pretty black box version. But, either way, it's super fun. Works head-to-head and with up to 5 players.

Rooks Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Just as an FYI... for anyone interested, they just released their second kickstarter campaign. You can get a deal on the boardgame if you buy it through the Kickstarter. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/coolminiornot/zombicide-season-2 Link to comment
