About the game

What you do in a play session

Brace yourself for the most chaotic zombie apocalypse you've ever seen with Zombie Fluxx! Forget everything you know about card games, because here the rules change with every play. It starts simple, with the basic 'draw 1, play 1' rule, but soon you'll be dealing with cards that alter how you draw, how you play, and, most importantly, how you win. The goal? Survive and, who knows, be the last zombie (or human?) standing. This version brings the zombie theme to the already crazy Fluxx series, adding new elements like 'Ungoal' cards, which can make everyone lose at once! You'll find 'Keeper' cards (your possessions), 'New Rule' (changing the game), 'Action' (quick actions), 'Goal' (victory conditions), 'Creeper' (zombies that hinder you), and the dreaded 'Ungoal'. It's a fast-paced, unpredictable game full of twists. Perfect for those who enjoy controlled chaos and aren't afraid of the rules changing at the last minute. With a playtime ranging from 10 to 40 minutes and for up to 6 players, Zombie Fluxx is ideal for livening up any gathering, guaranteeing laughs and perhaps some screams of despair (mild ones, of course!).
