Take turns building the barricade to keep the zombies at bay!
In this abstract dexterity game, you take on the roles of a group of survivors trying to escape a zombie apocalypse.
To keep the zombies at bay, each player needs to help build up the barricade with random pieces carefully stacked on each other. However, at times a player must also remove a part of the barricade to salvage parts for fixing the escape car.
The die adds luck to the situation which can land a player in the dreaded "blind stacking" event where they must depend on the other players' directions/clues to blindly place a barricade piece without toppling it all over. It only takes a handful of mistakes for the players to lose so keep a steady hand and focused mind. The barricade must not fall!
A game turn is comprised of 3 phases:
Barricade Phase - roll the red D6 Action die & consult the Action table (add zombies or add to the barricade)
Car Phase - roll the red D6 Action die & consult the Action table (add zombies or remove from the barricade)
End Phase - zombie check & increase the black D8 Hour die
Players loose if there are 10 zombies at the barricade.
Players win if the D8 Hour die value exceeds 8.
