About the game

What you do in a play session

If you are a fan of Zombicide and love adding a touch of style to your sessions, the Paolo Parente Special Guest Box is a must-have for your collection. Paolo Parente is a renowned artist known for his unique art style and striking atmosphere, and he brings all his creativity to the zombie-infested universe here. This expansion does not change the core rules of the game, but it injects an extra dose of personality with two exclusive characters: Dylan and Maki. The best part is that, as is standard in Zombicide, each of these survivors comes with a miniature in both their human and 'Zombivor' versions, just in case things get ugly and they end up getting bitten. It is that cosmetic addition that enriches the table, allowing you to vary the cast and bring new abilities and visuals to your group of survivors. If you already enjoy the base game and want to diversify your character options, these special guests are excellent choices. They fit perfectly into the progression and combat mechanics you already know, keeping the challenge high while you try to clear the streets and complete mission objectives. It is the kind of expansion that pleases both those looking to optimize their team and those who value well-sculpted miniatures with a distinctive design. Get ready to see the zombie apocalypse from a new artistic perspective and try not to let Dylan or Maki become dinner for the undead on the very first turn!
