GamesRadar+ Verdict
Zombicide is a silly game for people who are serious about board games.
The game comes with a whole army of unpainted miniatures including 12 Survivors and 76 Zombies.
Each of these is a good deal more detailed than those found in the original game.
It also does away with the distracting multi-colored Survivor minis, which is a welcome change in my book.
In addition to the miniatures, the game components include sturdy map tiles, cards, and tokens.
All of these pieces are not only visually appealing but also durable.
Character inventory is kept neat and tidy with the help of the dashboard too.
Enjoy a single shot of zombie whacking.
Ready to hunker down and playthrough a makeshift campaign across an entire evening?
you might do that too.
No matter how you choose to play Zombicide, youre in for some goofy, gory fun.
Of course, youre still incentivized to smash up some undead on your journey.
Character skills give you a leg up and are definitely helpful but theyre not total gamechangers.
In groups of less than six players, there still needs to be six survivor characters on the board.
So, in these cases, you and your group have to split them between you all.
How do I fairly divide 6 by 5?
Am I supposed to break one of these beautiful minis into fifths?
From its impressive minis to the clean, easy-to-read player dashboard, the game is definitely delivering quality.
5/5
