Just a deck of a hundred poker sized cards, so it is easy to bring with you and needs very little table space. A perfect game for those who are visual oriented because the game is all about determining which cards have more or less of a certain color on them!
This is a real time game in that it has a “timer” … which is the gimmick :) It is a small marble that rolls down the zig zag track – when it hits the bottom your turn is over:) While I DON’T like “timer” based games, I saw this game for $5 and got it just for the fun of it:) And you can play the whole game in about TEN MINUTES as well!
Interesting … he explains the rules clearly (they are simple) but then does not FOLLOW the rules himself! (smile). He was supposed to make a word that started with the letter N … so he used the word PEN. Umm… that starts with a P :)
Don’t worry – evolution is not in the game at all – it just means it is the sequel to Zombie Kidz
Personally, I don’t see what OTHER people see in Zombies… but they seem to be the big thing in games (I suppose they are a good alternative to fighting off aliens). If you are OK with fighting off Zombies, then here is a very interesting Cooperative game! (so all players are working together to beat of the Zombies). The unique thing about this game is that the rules gradually change as you play … there are secret envelopes that you open when you win that grant you more super powers etc.
Plays on a vertical board. Player pieces have magnets. Players can only see one side of the two sided board so they need to communicate with each other! [available at I’m Board Middleton or Sun Prairie]
