About the game

What you do in a play session

Alright, folks! Get ready for another dose of the zombie apocalypse with 'Zombies!!! 4: The End...', a standalone expansion that throws you into a dark and sinister forest. Forget the distant howling, it's probably nothing... or could it be zombie dogs? That's right, the threat now comes with four paws and sharp teeth! The goal is to be the first to reverse the spell that brought the dead back. To do this, you need to collect pages from the Book of the Undead, rush to a cabin, and cast the counter-spell before other players outmaneuver you (or the zombies bite you).<br><br>In this version for 2 to 6 players, the map is always a surprise, assembled with tiles that reveal themselves each turn, ensuring no two games are ever the same. In addition to classic zombies, you'll have to deal with a hungry pack of undead dogs, adding an extra spice of danger to your journey. Players take turns placing map tiles, spreading zombies, running like mad, screaming (mentally, or not!), fighting, and generally turning the forest into total chaos. The cool thing is that 'Zombies!!! 4' can be played on its own, as a complete game, or combined with any other 'Zombies!!!' set for an even more epic and undead-filled experience. Who's up for the challenge of saving the world (or at least their own skin)?

The game is for 2 to 6 players, but the experience gets more chaotic and fun with 3 or 4 people, as the competition for book pages and the race to the cabin become more intense.

Yes, absolutely! It's a standalone expansion, meaning you can play it as a complete game on its own, without needing any other 'Zombies!!!' set to have fun.
How long does a game of Zombies!!! 4 last?
A game usually takes between 60 to 120 minutes. The time can vary depending on the number of players and how lucky (or unlucky!) you are with the dice.

The core mechanics are dice rolling for movement (Roll / Spin and Move) and Tile Placement, which builds the map as you explore. It's simple but effective for creating tension.
What are zombie dogs and how do they affect the game?
Zombie dogs are a new threat introduced in this version! They add an extra layer of danger and unpredictability, as they are faster and can catch up to you more easily, forcing you to rethink your escape routes.

I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a light, zombie-themed game with plenty of direct interaction and a touch of luck. It's great for B-horror movie fans and those who want a more casual and fun gaming experience.
