Deadland (2017)

About this game

Deadland is a cooperative/competitive survival game. Players are survivors and move through six different areas searching for a certain number of radios to win the game. During each turn, some cards are revealed, and survivors could be forced to raise their infection level. If a survivor reaches infection level 8, they die and play as a zombie, with their goal now being to avoid survivors to win the game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
