Dead of Night Type: Board
GM:
Mitch Mitchell
Players: 6
Description:
Dead of Night is a 1 to 6 player game based on scenarios you might recognize from various zombie films. There is
no 'Zombie Master' here: all the players are on the same side, all working together to survive, although the option
to use other players as zombie bait while you grab all the guns and lock yourself in the cellar is there if you prefer. Either
way, you will need to use strategy and your (fresh and spicy) brains as well as chainsaws and shotguns to make it through
the night. Cards drawn throughout the game may help or hinder your progress, but as the night draws on you can be sure things
are going to get much worse before you see the sun again. The game ends when somebody fulfils the main objective (eg, escaping
in a fuelled up vehicle), or at daybreak, which brings respite in the form of an advancing army patrol. If you can survive
until the end of the game, you are a winner.
