So how much do you want to kill your fellow man? What if they are no longer your fellow man as you have become something that can live longer? Would you stop caring about the lives of others and choose instead to feed upon them to nourish your own? Well it’s probably not much of a choice when you turn into a flesh eating zombie but this game follows you, one of the undead, chasing down humanity and chewing them up – one juicy morsel at a time!
Kill the living!
We have played many zombie related board and card games in our years at ThinkGeek. In fact, we stock a few of them. But it often seems that in a zombie game, you play the humans trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. That’s fun and all, but with all the zombie material out there, it’s almost too realistic. We’ve been planning for the zombie uprising all our lives, so it’s not really a stretch for us to be the survivors, y’know?
In the original Munchkin game, you are adventurers in a dungeon, killing monsters and taking their treasure. In Munchkin Zombies, you are the zombies, killing the humans and taking their stuff. Some of those humans are helpless and easy pickings, while others will make you work for a chance to crack open their skulls. Maybe you’ll get lucky and find a pot to wear as a helmet to protect you from headshots! The first zombie to reach level 10 is the winner, so get out there and eat some delicious, spicy brains.
