About the game

What you do in a play session

Prepare for a zombie apocalypse like no other in All Things Zombie! In this game, you and your friends (or just yourself!) are the last survivors in a world overrun by the undead. The mission is clear: survive at all costs, exploring devastated cities in search of essential supplies like weapons and ammo, while facing hungry hordes. The game's art is breathtaking, and the design, though detailed, is surprisingly easy to pick up and play. The fun doesn't stop there: you might even have to deal with other survivors who aren't so friendly! Whether on a tense resource hunt in an abandoned police station, in a frantic shootout against a sea of zombies, or in a desperate battle against rivals, All Things Zombie keeps you on the edge of your seat. The game shines for both pure strategy enthusiasts and RPG fans, offering an immersive experience. And the best part? The zombies are controlled by the game's mechanics, so no one has to sit out as the 'zombie master.' With multiple scenarios and a campaign mode, replayability is guaranteed. It's easy to learn, but mastering survival against the undead is quite a challenge, promising hours of intense and strategic fun. A note: this edition is no longer available, having been replaced by the 'All Things Zombies Reloaded' version.
