"Awesome game!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Initially I wasn't interested in the whole zombie theme, but this one is different as it doesn't take place in modern times like the previous Zombicide incarnations. Since I like sword and sorcery, I decided to get Black Plague. It doesn't disappoint. Wish Mighty Ape stocked the special guest boxes though!

"Best board game I've played yet"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Been collecting board games for only about 6 months now, but of the 12 or so (highly rated and recommended) games I own, this one blows them away, love the theme, love the game-play, miniatures are amazing – got me back into painting!

"Light & fun hack and slash miniatures boardgame"
5 stars"

A very easy to learn, fun miniatures game. Quick to setup, either one off games or a series of missions. A typical game takes 1 to 2 hours depending how you want to play. Recommended for anyone who likes miniatures combat but doesn't want to have to invest a lot of money or time as it is playable straight out of the box.

Description

The ultimate zombie board game, reinvented in a medieval fantasy setting!

Zombicide: Black Plague is a standalone cooperative board game for 1 to 6 players that brings the relentless zombie-killing action of Zombicide into a brand new fantasy setting, featuring different Survivors from all walks of medieval life and even some fantasy races like dwarves and elves! Each of these heroes possess their own unique abilities to face the zombie horde, from familiar skills to all-new ones! Players control a party of Survivors as they fight to rid the land of an invasion of the fearsome horde of zombies raised and controlled by Necromancers. Survivors find weapons, learn spells, battle zombies, and gain experience. The more experienced they get, the more powerful they become, but the more zombies rise to face them!

Familiar and New Gameplay
Armor introduces a new twist for Zombicide veterans. A survivor wearing armor (or carrying a shield) has a chance of blocking multiple zombie attacks with a lucky roll (although it’s no help against the Abomination). Each card's symbol indicates the slot where it's used. Weapons and magic spells must be equipped in-hand. Armor must be worn on the body. Special items like extra arrows can be stashed in your backpack. Survivors have varying equipment specializations, allowing them to equip a particular card on the body slot and still have it instantly accessible.

Fearsome New Enemies
The zombie hordes shuffling around Zombicide: Black Plague’s alleys were raised by powerful Necromancers. When these dark masters enter the board, even more zombies spawn every round. Instead of mindlessly chasing survivors, Necromancers will try to escape and spread more dread across the land! If they’re not eliminated, the avalanche of zombies only gets worse! And there's the always terrifying Abomination. It ignores your armor, and is practically invulnerable to your weapons. Your only hope is to lay a trap of Dragon Bile in his path. Light it up with a torch at the right moment, and you’ll see there’s almost no problem that can’t be solved with the judicious application of Dragon Fire!

Zombicide, But More
Zombicide: Black Plague is much more than just the classic Zombicide game you know and love transported into a fantasy world. While it retains the general Zombicide mechanics, several changes and additions were made for this new iteration. Each survivor in Black Plague receives a quality plastic dashboard to keep them organized. A built-in sliding arrow tracks experience and plastic pegs mark wounds and indicate new skills. Finally, multiple slots hold all your cards, making the new inventory system intuitive and structured.
