Cryptozoic 1617680893 The Walking Dead Board Game (TV Version)

Product Information

In addition to "The Walking Dead" branded games (i.e. games that have only been changed in appearance, such as The Walking Dead Risiko, Bang TWD), games set specifically in the TWD universe have also been designed (e.g. The Walking Dead: Here's Negan). In addition to regular board games, there are also The Walking Dead card & dice games. Looking for a board game from a different universe? New evidence! - This review has been edited to reflect a game score of **6**, but the initial score cannot be altered. Updated comments at the end of the review.) The ulterior motive cards, though optional, add nicely to the theme. Yes, you’re a team working together… but you’re also a group of individuals from all walks of life, each with your own responsibilities for survival.

Like most licensed games, there is an extra level of immersion you’ll enjoy if you are a fan of the TV series. At the same time, you’ll still have just as much fun if you’ve never heard of The Walking Dead.It's always an excellent service with brilliant products at a very competitive price - will use again! The life counters are double sided. One side has a 1 and the other a 3. So that can get confusing and for that gamer that likes to cheat they will be flipping it. The game plays as many tower defense games do – you shuffle around the board protecting resources from the invading hordes. In this game, the hordes are zombies thirsting for human flesh. Looking for a really good The Walking Dead card or board game 🧟‍♂️? Then we've got just the thing - a list of the top The Walking Dead games. What is "The Walkind Dead" anyway?

After choosing to stay or defy, the non-leader may draw a resource card from the location their survivor is on, trade one item with a survivor at their location and then must play one of their event cards (discarding the other). Fight the walkers At the start of each round players will discuss their strategies and then each player is dealt two event cards. On Beginner difficulty players can continue to discuss their strategies. On Expert Difficulty strategic discussion is no longer allowed until the combat phase.The miniatures in the set are, on the whole, excellent and are a joy to paint, the detail in the Walkers is extremely good and these characters show a wide range of sculpts, from zombie waitresses to old men. The sculpts for the human characters don’t seem to be as refined, and whilst clothing details are great, a couple of their heads seem a little bulky and large. As the leader you get to move each player one space, or leave them where they are. This movement is based HIGHLY on what event cards you’ve been dealt as the leader, but also what event cards other players were dealt. My biggest gripe, and yes Cryptozoic – this is your fault, is the box and box insert. The box is huuuuuge compared to what you get inside. It’s a store shelf billboard trying to sell you on the fact that this is The Walking Dead game. I can’t fault them for that, but it’s a beast of a box to try to transport when all the components could easily fit in a box the size of Pandemic. And that insert! Whoever designed a beautiful looking insert that allows almost all of the cards inside slide around like a small tornado ripped through zombie town should get a boot on their car. I’m seriously going to look into a card container to fit inside the box to protect the cards. I’m also going to replace the very lightweight, very bouncy six-sided dice. Expert Difficulty: Event cards are hidden from other players until played, and there is very little cooperative discussion

Most of the components just felt really cheap. The Box is way too big for what it contains. The only reasons its that big is to say “Hey Walking Dead Game Here!”, also for the cover art on it. Have to say its a pretty nice picture.To win a game of Best Defense your group must survive for 12 rounds and make sure none of the four resources run out. Actually surviving 12 rounds is not an easy task. You will probably lose the game quite a bit (depending on the difficulty you choose), but that’s half the fun and the challenge. If you win, it will usually be by the skin of your teeth! Protect your resources

First Season • First Season (Special Edition) • Second Season • Second Season (Special Edition) • Third Season • Third Season (Special Edition) • The Complete Seasons 1-3 • Fourth Season • Fourth Season (Special Edition) Each player starts off with one Equipment card, two Allies, and two Food. One player (chosen by the highest die roll) will start off with the Badge of Leadership. Don’t get too excited, it just means you have to make bad choices first. Risk, ‘the game of strategic conquest’, is an area control game where players compete against each other to take over territories and dominate the world map. In Risk, each player controls a faction that is randomly assigned a certain number of starting territories depending on the player count. Each faction has a starting number of soldiers represented by miniature plastic figures. Players allocate these figures to their starting territories as part of the set-up phase. At this point there is the drawing of a random event card that dramatically impacts on the gameplay. For example, a car alarm has gone off, drawing all the zombies towards one of the die-cut cars in a certain direction meaning that your previously “safe” spot on the table is now in the path of the hoard.Walking Dead Risk has two playable versions, Conquest and Survival. The Conquest version is for 2-5 players and is similar to the classic Risk style of total domination. The fifth player assumes the role of the Walkers as each player attempts to control all territories and eliminate all of the other players. Two modes of play allow for beginners and experienced players to tailor the game to their skill level
