Apocalypse Z: The Board Game

A cooperative survival and adventure game set during a zombie apocalypse. Players control one or more protagonists, each with distinct abilities, and work together to secure resources, complete objectives, and keep the group alive. Each scenario combines map, event, and threat cards, with players choosing the order in which characters act and spending action points to move, attack, search buildings, build barricades, exchange items, or use special abilities. Wounds reduce available actions, while the threat deck introduces changing events and escalating danger. Scenarios can be played individually or as part of a branching campaign with multiple story paths.
