In Axis & Allies & Zombies, you'll command the forces of either the Axis or the Allies, but you'll also have to contend with a horde of undead creatures hungry for brains (and territory!). The gameplay has been streamlined to amp up the action, but don't be fooled, chaos is guaranteed with bizarre inventions like chainsaw tanks and zombie mind control rays. The storyline is pure madness, blending the tension of war with apocalyptic horror. The big question is: can you survive this zombie invasion and still emerge victorious in the global conflict, or will you become zombie chow? It's a mix that might sound crazy, but anyone who enjoys the Axis & Allies line and wants a touch of horror and humor will have a blast. It's World War II with a zombie apocalypse flavor, where survival is as crucial as military victory. Brace yourself for unexpected twists and tough decisions, because not everyone will make it out of this mess alive! ## FAQ ### What's the main difference between this game and the traditional Axis & Allies? The big novelty is the addition of zombies as a third faction or threat, along with elements of humor and bizarre inventions, plus slightly streamlined gameplay. ### Do you play in teams or is it every player for themselves? The game is team-based, where you join either the Axis or the Allies to combat the opposing faction and, of course, the zombies. ### Is the game very complicated to learn? The gameplay has been simplified compared to other titles in the Axis & Allies series, making it more accessible, but it still requires attention to rules and strategies. ### Do I need a translation to play? Yes, the game has a considerable language dependency, so a full translation of cards and components is essential to play it comfortably. ### Is this game more focused on combat or strategy? It's a mix of both. You need to manage your units and resources (strategy), but resolving combat and moving on the board (combat and tactics) are crucial. ### Who would you recommend this game to? I'd recommend it to fans of the Axis & Allies series looking for something different and lighter, or for players who enjoy wargames with a touch of humor, horror, and unexpected elements. ### How long does a game take? Games can vary quite a bit, but expect something between 60 to 180 minutes, depending on the number of players and the strategy employed. ## Price Comparison ### Best International Offers - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 40.09 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=1191327&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 41.42 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=3915924&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 50.99 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=7137920&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 55.94 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=4314034&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 60.53 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=1656848&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 63.34 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6740986&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 63.77 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6900084&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 64.86 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=6789187&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 65.00 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=4889327&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - **BoardGamePrices.com**: $ 65.00 (https://boardgameprices.com/item/go?source=A&storeitemid=7100762&utm_source=boardgamesbot.com) - See all on BoardGamePrices: https://boardgameprices.com/item/show/25344/axis-allies-and-zombies?utm_source=boardgamesbot.com
