One of the best tabletop games ever made, and it's so simple to play! I have Zombies 1-4, and the 3.5 Deck deal. I also got one of the bags of zombies (they don't glow  ). I want to get a dog bag soon for 4, and the new MidEvil side-story (it's not supposed to be an expansion...just don't call it an expansion!). Plus, I heard that Zombies-5 is coming out in January!! I found it on their website. It's going to be in the Twighlight Academy (college zombies!!). Any other Zombies!!! players? |

Yeppers I play all the time. Its one of my favorite games to play with buddies. I got 1-4 and seen Mid-Evil in stores but have restrained myself because I just got zombies 4 a couple months ago and only played that one once. The 1st one though I have played a ton of times.

I played it once. Ever since then something else has always managed to find a more urgent way to spend my extra cash whenever I think about picking it up. Some day... oh yes, some day... On that topic, a good place to pick up games like this is Funagain Games. |

Quick story: I met the creator of this game at Origins 2005. He was hosting a Zombies Casino Night....it was great! The zombie tokens were used as casino chips. There were monsters everywhere and music videos like Rob Zombie playing in the background. Let's just say it was an enjoyable evening of casino gambling.

So, in a way, even TOM is infected by the Zombies!!!
Since Halloween is right around the corner (literally), there's a game store here that will be open for like 72 hours STRAIGHT! They're going to have all sorts of games going on, one of them being Zombies!!! Since it's like 5 minutes away, you can bet I'm showing up!
Is there anyone who actually has MidEvil?

I have MidEvil, but have yet to play it. It is a stand-alone, since the rules work a little differently from the other games. You get lives like in a video game instead of hearts, and you spend your kills for other things when you draw specific cards or can use them like bullets, IIRC. I've only skimmed the rules thus far.

where can I learn more on these games? I am rapidly beginning to suspect that there is no subject that doesn't have a wiki entry devoted to it. EDIT: Except CotG. Go figure. And this might be something that we want to fix.  |

I just picked up MidEvil today!!! Jimminy Christmas, there's a lot of crap crammed into that little box. They even have come buildings I wish were in the normal Zombies!!! game NOT FAIR!! Artwork looks fantastic, as usual. The Life Tokens was a bit of a shock, wasn't expecting to use those for Life Tokens.
Read from Twilight Creations that both games are going to see an expansion!
ZOMBIES!!!-5: School's Out Forever
MIDEVIL-2...This one is supposed to take place in a castle (similar to Zombies!!!-3).

Here's one we started using recently, changes the game dramatically!
Players can now have more than one zombie on a square. It is a -1 to your attack roll total. A total of 2 zombies can now occupy the same square as a player. This means that up to three zombie dogs can be on the same square as a player.
BTW, if you've ever checked out the Zombies!!! Mini-RPG that was made, contact me! I recently downloaded it, along with a slew of other free zombie games:
The End Of The World
Zombie Dawn
Zombie Plague
Dawn Of The Dead boardgame
I'm also going to pick up this new one called Maul of the Dead, it looks like a deluxe zombie mall mashing boardgame.

How easy to play is it? My friends and I go up to the cabin about once a month or so and we love new things to do. Give me some advice about this game. Can it be played single player as well? Do most comic shops carry it? Do I understand correctly that it is played with minitures?

It is not a single player game. The game play is quite easy as it is merely dice rolling, with cards played. It is played with the miniatures provided in the game box. Nothing needs to be bought. I hope all comic shops carry it as it is one of my top sellers.

Most of the major chains like HobbyTown carry it. A lot of them were smart, and realized it was a good selling game. While it is multi-player, you can easily find solo rules on their website (the link's here at this post...somewhere). The whole game is self-contained, meaning you don't have to buy anything else for it (except maybe the expansion games). It's very tongue-in-cheek style playing.
Does anyone know anything about the "Zombies, Yo!" card, and how to get one's hands on it?

I am really interested in this game. I am going to go check 2 stores close by that are supposed to carry it. I am pumped to play it with friends. I think they will enjoy it. That is in between video games and poker.

Just thought that I would let you all know that I picked up the starter box today and am pumped to play it with some friends. I checked a Shinders close by and they only had one Zombies 3 so I went over to Games by James in the mall and they had all the Zombies stuff. He said they make sure to keep it all in stock there because it is a decent seller.
