Are you a fan of zombie movies? By playing Zombies you get to star in your own Zombie movie. You will race through the streets trying to escape the advancing horde of zombies.

The game pieces include plastic zombies, plastic people, two six sided dice, and city tiles. To start the game, take out the Town Square and helipad tile. Then shuffle the rest of the tiles. Play begins by playing the Town Square tile in the middle. Place the helipad tile on the bottom of the deck so it's the last card to be drawn. This is where everyone starts the game. At the start of your turn, draw and play a tile. Some tiles are buildings and will have zombies, bullets, and health in them.

Players roll a die to determine movement. You don't have to take all of your movement. When you encounter a zombie, you must roll to see if you defeat him. A roll of 4,5,6 beats the zombie. You can use shotgun shells to bump up a bad roll. Each failed roll will cost you a life. If you win, you get to remove the zombie from play and add it to your collection. If you die, then you re-spawn at the Town Square and lose half of your zombie kill.

To win the game, you either need to make it to the helipad and defeat all the zombies or kill 25 zombies.

Zombies is never the same game twice. You basically build the board each time you play with the tiles. It's best to explore the zombie-infested buildings before heading to the helipad. That way you can collect as many lives and bullets as possible.

Zombies!! is one of those fun games that can be played almost directly out of the box. It's good to read through the instructions but is very easy to play.
There are cards that can give you an advantage or can slow down your competition.

Zombies!! is also expandable. You can buy more tiles and cards that make the game more interesting. You can even buy extra zombies like the one included in the original set. There are also special Zombies!! sets like the one that pits you against the carnival of the damned(Zombies!! 7 Send in the Clowns) or the set of a shopping mall (Zombies!! 3 Mall Walkers). As you can see, if you are a fan of zombie movies, then Zombies!! is the game for you.

Zombies!! definitely takes its inspiration from zombie movies. It's also a fun game that can easily be learned in 10-20 minutes.
