About the game
What you do in a play session
Hey everyone! Ready for another dose of zombie chaos? This exclusive Kickstarter box brings some new nasties to Zombicide, and they're not your average undead! We've got the dreaded Rat King, a necromancer commanding veritable armies of mutant rodents, and the Swamp Troll, a grotesque abomination that'll give you a headache (and maybe a missing limb).
If you're already into the vibe of Zombicide: Black Plague or Green Horde, this expansion is here to add some extra spice to your missions. We know the original game already has that great mix of medieval fantasy and horror, and these new enemies only heighten the tension. Imagine having to deal with a Rat King summoning swarms of rats while trying to escape a giant troll... it's enough to test your survivors' coordination and luck!
The components are what we've come to know and love: detailed miniatures that bring these terrifying creatures to life, ready to invade your board. Adrian Smith's art, as always, is a standout, adding that dark and epic touch we adore. This expansion is perfect for those who crave bigger challenges and more variety in the undead hordes. Get your dice ready, adjust your skills, and good luck, because with the Rat King and the Swamp Troll on the loose, survival is going to be even sweatier!
