Space Station Zemo (1998)

About this game

The game Space Station Zemo is a rare game published in September 1998 by Inquest Magazine (issue #41). Some assembly and dice were required to play, the game was not complete when purchased. The game takes place on the Space Station Zemo. From the Rules/description: "Zemo: the final frontier. These are the escapades of the inhabitants of Space Station Zemo. Their mission: to boldy blow up where no one has blown up before-- or to get the hell of the station before it explodes..." There are five different characters the players can pick or choose randomly. Chuckie the Zombie, Floyd the Droid, Mush the Abomination, Pete the Cook, and The Rats. The players attempt to find the security card, set the controls to their password, and escape the station before it blows up. Killing all the other people also works.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
