📖 About This Game
Zombie Horde is a cooperative board game for 1 to 5 players. In Zombie Horde, survivors live in a colony, trying to survive the aftermath of the zombie apocalypse. The colony is the heart of the game.
GAMEPLAY
The game is divided into rounds, and one round is composed of 2 phases: the Colony phase, and the Exploration phase.
Each phase is divided into steps.
COLONY PHASE: the Colony Phase takes place on the Colony Board, and is played following 7 steps in order. These 7 steps form one phase.
EXPLORATION PHASE: The Exploration Phase takes place on the mission map tiles. During this phase, players activate their survivors in any order, even alternating them, and perform up to 3 actions. When the survivors finish their activation, the zombies activate. Players resolve the effects of zombie activation, then the phase is over.
When both phases have finished, that is 1 round. The next round starts from the first step in the Colony Phase.
The game ends when the cure is found, or all survivors are dead.
