Zombicide is one of the must-have games for zombie fanatics and other horror fans. Here's what you need to know about this board game.

Who makes Zombicide?

Zombicide is a cooperative board game published by Guillotine Games. This company is also behind a number of board games such as Blood Rage, Massive Darkness and The Others. These are generally horror board games.

The French edition of Zombicide is distributed by Edge Entertainment. Zombicide is aimed at children aged 13 and over, and a game can last between 30 minutes and 4 hours, depending on the scenario chosen.

How does the Zombicide board game work?

Zombicide is a miniatures game that also has a board, i.e. it comes with a Zombicide board.

Zombicide dice accessories are also supplied with the game. The aim of the game is to survive in a world where zombies rule. The game can be played by up to 6 players. After choosing a scenario, each player can control between 1 and 4 survivors (4 for a solo game). The survivors are humans trapped in a zombie-ridden environment. Each character in the game has special abilities that must be unlocked, and the more of these that are unlocked, the more zombies land on the Zombicide board. Players then work together to survive.

Although missions can change depending on the scenario, all players can lose together if they get caught by the zombies, or win together if they complete their mission. Alternatively, you should know that a Zombicide miniature is not painted, and that each one can be painted using a suitable brush and Zombicide paint, all included in the Zombicide paint pack.

What types of actions can be performed in Zombicide?

Several actions can be performed in Zombicide. For example, depending on the version of the game, a player surrounded by Zombies can build barriers to avoid being caught. They can also find weapons in buildings, cars to get around in or make Molotov cocktails.

Depending on the add-ons purchased, players can also fight against various types of undead. These include skinner, seeker, berserker and toxic zombies, as well as zombie dogs and crows.

How do I choose a Zombicide game?

Choosing a Zombicide game depends on 3 essential criteria. These are your gaming experience, the game's universe and its storyline.

As far as the game's universe and atmosphere are concerned, Zombicide games come in 3 universes: a contemporary (modern) universe, a medieval-fantasy universe and a science-fiction universe. It's essential to choose a game that suits your personal tastes.

The best way to do this is to look at the overall aesthetic of the various boxes, not forgetting to take a close look at the game's setting, the miniatures supplied and the narrative experience presented. On the other hand, if you're a beginner, it's best to go for the simpler Zombicide games. These are Zombicide Invader (sci-fi world), Zombicide Season 1 (modern world) and Zombicide Black Plague (medieval-fantasy world).
