The game play is great, the art is not that great. If you want the same game mechanics I would recommend spending a few extra bucks and getting the German version Hunters and Gatherers or better known as Jäger und Sammler same designer (Not sold in the US, can find on amazon.de)

Zombiegeddon is a game is for 2-4 players. The game board and pieces are well constructed, with the supply discs being made of a sturdy cardboard and the player pieces from a solid plastic. I don't really think the name Zombiegeddon fits it much, there are only a few zombie pieces in the game, but I don't think that hurts it. It's primarily about gathering supplies and trying to out-wit and trap your opponents.

The game is quite simple to learn and the mechanics are easy, but the gameplay is full of strategy. You start with four pieces trying to gather supplies from the board, while trying to block the other players from taking those that you want. Each supply is given a point value (with some increasing in points the more you have-> 1=1 point, 2=3, etc) You can pick up weapons and defeat enemies for higher points as well. After taking all the supplies from the board you go into bomb shelters and re-emerge(in any shelter where you dropped off supplies in the first stage, so you can start the post-bomb stage with 0-4 pieces out) with the board filled again with supplies and enemies. After claiming everything from the second stage the game ends and the person with most points wins. It's quite simple, but good fun. I would recommend this to anyone who likes strategy games.
