Description
Premise- The Zombie Apocalypse is upon us, and it's much worse than TV, Comics, and Movies have prepared us for! Zombie Cards is a very fast, very fun, and surprisingly strategic game where you must search for essential Equipment while trying to keep your Survivors safe from Zombies, Traps, and Bandits. Search and scavenge as much as your nerve will allow, but once your last Survivor is gone, it's Game Over! Optional (but thoroughly enjoyable) drinking game rules included!
Gameplay- Unpack box contents and separate the decks, shuffle well, place the Search Deck face down in the center. The 12 Survivors are divided up evenly between the 2-6 Players (reduce Survivors to add difficulty). The players choose who goes first and then go clockwise from there. Each player can draw up to 6 Search Cards (one at a time), or end their turn without drawing. Trading cards between players is allowed. Some Loot cards can be discarded to save your Survivors. If a player has no more survivors then they are out of the game and their Loot is placed in the discard pile. If the Search deck runs out, reshuffle it's discard pile and continue. The first player to have 13 pieces of Loot wins! Repeat and Enjoy!
Optional Drinking Card Game Rules- Whenever a Zombie Card is drawn, all players take 1 drink. If the player who drew the zombie is able to save their Survivor, then they don't drink. If not, they take 2 drinks. If a Trap or Bandit card is drawn and the player who drew them cannot save their Survivor, they take 3 drinks. If they can, then all other players must take 1 drink. If another player saves a Survivor from a Trap or Bandit then the player who lost them takes 2 drinks. If trading cards between players, the initiating player takes 1 drink. If a player loses all Survivors then they must take 4 drinks. When someone wins the game, then the remaining players take 3 drinks. Drink responsibly. Not meant for hard liquor. Don't drink and drive!
