Personally, I didn't really enjoy it. It's a game very much focused on screwing over your fellow players. Since I play a lot of boardgames with my wife, playing this one usually ends with me sleeping on the couch

Also, the game can get bogged down and drag on. Since you are both trying to get to the helicopter, it's easy to throw swarms of zombies in your opponents path, who does the same to you, and you both end up dying. When you die, you restart from the initial location and try again... only there are loads of zombies now wandering around.

If you like an aggressive game of backstabbing, you will probably enjoy this, but it wasn't for me.

The zombie minis are good for cannon fodder though. I still need to pick up some zombie dogs.

Arabin is right, it's very much a screw the other players game! I own it too and think it's fun. It allows you to take a break from team type games, which most of the games we play, RPGs are team type games.

Anyway, I've mentioned else where that I've been doing test builds of the game tiles using the Mayhem sets to make the tiles 3D. All of my tests have worked out really good, so now I've just got to sit down and start converting the tiles from 2D to 3D.

I will take pictures, once I get the tiles built!

Check out what games I’m working on and their status by visiting .

The new and improved Tampa Bay Game Players Forum is here! So see you in the game! .

I have Zombies, and its a fun game, especially if you have a Paranoia/Illuminati mindset, but want simpler mechanics. Its not particularly complicated, and it gets a little repetitive (I suggest that you try the "short" version first), but its fun.

Yes and no - if your like me (scary thought but I think you are) you mightn't give a stuff to scale so long as you have bodies on the table.

At the end of shows a unpainted zombie from the games in relation to other Z'ed out on the market.

If I was you I would grab another bag of these shambliers so you will never be with out - or grab the girlie -zombies that was done for them.

End of the day no one expects you to paint them (god that's funny) and having a hoard on hand is always good fun for the soul. A must for ATZ.

I own all the versions but have never played them. LOL. I was planning on using the zombies for another game.

As noted by others these zombies are very small.

Id' say give it a try. It's not that expensive, and a lot of people do enjoy it... I'm just too competitive.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Zombie game with the manor house... perhaps that will meet our many zombie needs. If not, perhaps we'll all get our heads together on the forum and come up with a custom zombie survival game of our own...

I've played Zombies!!! once, and to be honest I had fun, but I doubt if I'd play it again.

Dungeon Twister, on the other hand, I'll be playing for many years to come.................. I'd buy that game instead if I were you, no Zombies, but a heck of a lot more fun and replayability.

Heh, ok, I'm not competitive, as long as I'm winning If I never win, I get bored, so I have to win sometimes to maintain interest, but once a winning streak starts, I really hate to lose. *shrug*

Of course, with solo gaming, I have mixed feeling since I win, but I only do so through losing

How did I miss this zombie thread???

The little plastic zombies from this series of games stand 26mm tall from feet to top of head, and the thick oval base adds another 3mm. They are not large looking though (these are not "heroic" sculpts), they are rather frail and thin.

There are lots of people who acquire a bag of 100 and use them in other zombie games with their 28mm-30mm figures, and they look okay. Not great, but they do the job.

As for the game, I like it when I'm in the mood for that sort of thing, but it's very much a back-stabbing game, and best when the group is up for that.

Played 4 games of Zombie!!! this weekend. Not a bad game. Very funny to watch my son's friends stab each other in back and then watch the revenge go on.

I have some pics I'll post tonight.

CCotD do you have the ATZ game? If so what do you think of using these dead for that.

Glad you had fun with it, CCotD.
