Billed alternately as a story game, a roleplaying game, or a board game, Zombie Cinema: Story Game of the Living Dead straddles the lines between the usual definitions. The game uses a board to create a cooperative story resembling that of a zombie movie, as the characters race to stay ahead of the walking dead. The game is structured around sessions, two to three hours in length, and is generally played with three to six players.
Notes on This Edition
Packaged in a VHS cassette case, which contains the board, 27 Cinema Cards, 6 character pawns, 6 dice, 1 zombie pawn, 1 round marker, and the rules sheet. $20.00.
This refers to the English language release. The game was originally released in Finnish in 2006. While the rules are the same, the English language version is shorter and has less advice on strategy, and uses cards instead of the original sticks.
