About the game

Last Night on Earth: Timber Peak is a standalone game and expansion for Last Night on Earth, moving the zombie horror action from Woodinvale to a new mountain logging town. It introduces six new heroes, four Generator objectives, a fresh set of zombies, and new scenarios, along with rules for spreading fire and a full experience system for both heroes and zombies. One or two players control the shambling undead while the rest play survivors racing to complete objectives. The modular board and photographic art style deliver a strong B-movie horror atmosphere.

Hobbli's Notes

Timber Peak builds smartly on the beloved Last Night on Earth formula, adding meaningful new mechanics like fire spread and an experience system that gives long-term progression to both heroes and zombies. The modular board and varied scenarios keep the horror-movie survival experience fresh across many plays. It works equally well as a standalone entry point or an expansion for existing fans. Team-based asymmetric play between heroes and zombies remains the heart of its appeal.

What we like

  • New experience system adds progression for heroes and zombies.
  • Modular board and varied scenarios boost replayability.
  • Works as both standalone game and expansion.
  • Photographic art style delivers strong horror-movie atmosphere.

Keep in mind

  • 90-minute playtime with high downtime grade can drag for some.
  • Asymmetric team balance depends heavily on player skill.
  • Miniature and component count add setup time.

Who it's for

Good for horror and zombie fans in groups of 2-6 who enjoy team-based, scenario-driven miniatures games.
