About the game
Zombicide: Undead or Alive takes the beloved cooperative zombie-slaying franchise into the Wild West, pitting a posse of survivors against relentless waves of the risen dead. New survivor archetypes like the Gunslinger and Brawler bring fresh abilities, while Balconies and the Train introduce new tactical wrinkles. Players scavenge gear, level up survivors, and blast through zombies across modular scenario boards. It's fast, brutal, and built for miniatures fans who love beer-and-pretzels co-op carnage.
Hobbli's Notes
Zombicide games are practically a genre unto themselves at Hobbli, and this Western reskin injects welcome new mechanics without losing the frantic, satisfying core loop. Great for groups who already love the series or want an entry point with fresh flavor.
What we like
- Fresh Wild West setting with new survivor classes.
- New Balcony and Train mechanics add tactical variety.
- Fully cooperative scenario-based campaign play.
- Satisfying miniature combat with escalating zombie hordes.
Keep in mind
- Requires significant table space for boards and miniatures.
- Runtime can stretch with a full 6-player group.
- Rules overhead may be a lot for brand-new players.
Who it's for
Cooperative miniatures game fans, ages 14+, best with 2-6 players who enjoy tactical zombie-slaying action.
