Spin Master Games Dceased: Zombicide Cooperative Party Game for Comic Fans

$15!? You get a bunch of nice thick (like your mom) cardboard tiles that are fantastic with good art and a ton of standies and the plastic minis are very detailed and nice, nothing is flimsy. Dice and all included. Really fantastic game for the money. Usually you only get a few cards, a rulebook, dice maybe and that's it for this price range. But this one you get an entire game with lots of cards, huge board tiles, tons of miniatures, tokens and other stuff. Pretty easy game to learn to play. Lots of missions. Lots of variety. Lots of random stuff via the cards. You can't beat $15 for a game with this much going on.

(If you've backed the kickstarter and want to know if you should get this, I saved that for the bottom.) Zombicide is a fine game, but it can overstay its welcome with long game times and some fiddley rules. This game fixes a lot of that by not requiring you be in a specific place to search for things to make you strong, you are able to do it once a turn. You have power with you can use to add additional dice to attacks, which makes getting rid of abominations and large groups easier and fun (making you feel like a hero). The bystanders are a cool addition that grant you an ability when they follow you around, but if they get killed, you take an emotional (and game mechanical) hit as well. There are only 6 heroes and 4 zombie heroes in this box, but it's enough to get a good feel for the game and to decide if you want more either in the form of Marvel Zombies (already out) or the full line of DCeased coming out soon. (If you backed the kickstarter...) I've also gone all in with the kickstarter and would still recommend this. First, you get 6 more hero cards and minis. You also get 4 zombie heroes. Heroes: Batman - Repeat character (from core), new Mini, alternate player card Robin - Repeat character (from Gotham Knights), new Mini, alternate player card Batgirl - Repeat character (from Gotham Knights), new Mini, alternate player card Harley Quinn - Repeat character (from Arkham Asylum), new Mini, alternate player card Poison Ivy - Repeat character (from Arkham Asylum), new Mini, alternate player card Bane - Repeat character (from Arkham Asylum), new Mini, alternate player card Zombie Heroes: The Huntress - Repeat character (from Gotham Knights), new mini alt card Catwomon - Repeat character (from core), new mini alt card The Joker - Repeat character (from Arkham Asylum), new Mini, alternate player card Killer Croc - Repeat character (from Arkham Asylum), new Mini, alternate player card So while you don't get any new characters or new forms of characters, you get a full set of alts, which is still cool. But you also get a nice self-contained, small-ish, box to bring new players in. This is done by having zombie standees instead of minis, which really help set the zombies apart from the heroes and are just easier to manage. The missions are all 4 player which means you don't need to manage as many heroes as you would in a typical game. And this also makes the game length a bit shorter, which is great for new players or if you just want a quicker game.

DCeased: Invasion in Gotham City and honestly it exceeded my expectations. The value for the price is absolutely insane. In my city, stores were charging almost $100 USD for the same game, so finding it here for almost a quarter of that price genuinely shocked me. What surprised me the most is how fun and accessible the gameplay is. A lot of people online compare it to a lighter and faster version of Zombicide, which honestly makes it perfect for both new players and longtime fans. The pacing feels quick, the missions stay tense, and the DC zombie theme is just incredibly cool. Seeing characters like Batman and the Bat-Family fighting infected heroes gives the game a lot of personality. The miniatures and artwork also look fantastic for the price range, and production quality is despite. As both a DC fan and someone who enjoys cooperative games, this ended up being one of those purchases that feels way more premium than what you actually paid for. Highly recommended.

Wow! This isnt a partial game, it's a full on version of what will be.DCeased. it has Standee Zombies which is fine giving the price point. Don't expect a watered down game... its the full rules. This is an amazing pre release product to the "full game" which will just have more heroes etc.

Fantastic entry level version of a collectible Zombicide game. Zombies and Batman? Sells itself. Just enough collectible miniatures vs. gameplay to make this worthwhile. Just know that there's a huge Kickstarter version that will hopefully be mass marketed but this one was a fraction of the cost and has the same gameplay. The standees (zombies and bystanders) make this affordable while the miniatures are the main draw. Map tiles are sturdy and colorful. The game is fun and can be added to the full blown game. Highly recommend and the price is right.

Great intro to dungeon crawlers. 4 of the characters need to be played regardless of player count. That's easier to manage than the 6 needed in other Zombicide games. Smaller box than Zombicide. Fitting the contents and getting the lid to close is sort of a puzzle but doable. Sleeves won't fit. Rulebook is clear and not too long. Character abilities are cool. I wish there were a few more item cards. The color rings that attach to the bottom of the minis dont always hang on. My kids have a little trouble keeping the health and power trackers on their player cards. There are 3 or 4 easy levels and then the game gets tough. Kids still like it after about 10 plays. For under $30 its an excellent package.

I've been playing Zombicide for 15 years, and CMON (the parent company) keeps envisioning and creating new iterations of the game. Two years ago, Marvel Zombies hit the scene and introduced superheroes to the game. The wide success of that version [inevitably] led to a DC superhero version of the game, as well. For those not familiar with the game, it is a survival/horror-themed game where players take on the roles of "survivors" of a zombie apocalypse. Each game the players will choose one of the scenarios that come with the game to play for the game session. Though each of the scenarios have many similarities, there are varying degrees of difficulty, objectives, and recommended player counts to be found in them. Typically, each scenario will find the players navigating through a city or through a building (made up of double-sided tiles that are mixed and matched to create the game map) to locate hidden objectives that - when found - allow them to open doors to progress to the exit or to another part of the map. Along the way, players will "rescue" civilian bystanders, pick up new weapons and gear to help the survive, and battle hordes of zombies that are intent on devouring them. A game ends when players die, at the end of a certain number of rounds, or when objectives are completed (or failed). Games typically take 1-2 hours to play, depending on how large the maps are and the difficulty level of the scenario. The game has a lot of replayability, and even after players have beaten all scenarios in the game box, additional scenarios created by fans can often be found, online. This particular game box is a smaller, less expensive, and simplified version of the regular version of the game, which will be in stores next year. The full-size version of the game includes more plastic miniatures instead of cardboard standees, more map tiles to create a larger and more diverse map, different heroes and villains, and more accessories. If you buy Gotham City Outbreak and enjoy it, you'll probably want to get the full-sized retail box, next year, to play. If you prefer the world of Marvel characters over DC, you can check out their similar product called Marvel Zombies: Heroes' Resistance.

The theme is great. I have both dc and marvel. I also have most of the larger Zombicide games and kickstarter extras. This box is fun to play quickly, great to teach new players, and fast to set up and take down. The lower price is due to using cardboard stands instead of miniatures for the bad guys and for fewer scenarios. Still, there is great replay ability and plenty of fun for veterans and newbies. If you are wondering whether or not to dip your toe into the Zombicide universe, this is a great option. It is standalone and does not need any additions for a fun evening.

Tolles Spiel, aber...das Spiel kam komplett eingerissen und kaputt an. Und wurde mit dickem Tesa-Band zusammengeflickt. Sowas habe ich bisher nicht erlebt. Ich glaube das kann man nicht mehr toppen! ^^

A posséder pour tous les fans de zombicide car nous ne sommes pas sur que le financement participatif nous fournira le jeu complet. ! Un must!

Received product with packaging cut open and all items in the box had been previously opened. All figures/tokens had been punched out of their cards and the batman experience counters had been assembled. Definitely not BNIB and listing did not mention had been previously opened. Hopefully all the parts/cards/tokens are still all there.

Primero que nada odio el concepto de los zombies como ser. Pero, hace años tuve la oportunidad de leer Dceased el cómic y aunque no creo que sea una historia excelente me gusta mucho el concepto de que se usara la ecuación antivida usando aparatos electrónicos propagarla como un virus en el universo DC. Con esa premisa en mente Zombicide creo una variante de sus populares juegos y los localizaron en el universo DCeased. Y lo lograron de un modo excelente a mi gusto. El juego es divertido, fácil de entender , me encanta como cada personaje está tan bien diseñado que te hace sentir como lo que el propio personaje puede lograr en el cómic. Los materiales son de muy buena calidad, las figuras hermosas y bien detalladas. El arte es buenisimo y la diversión está totalmente garantizada. Sin embargo el juego tiene sus detalles como que los enemigos son (salvo los villanos y héroes zombie) de cartón que puede maltratarse al ponerlos en la base (esto último además agrega que es casi imposible devolver las figuras de cartón con sus bases a la caja y aunque las desmontes de todos modos las bases no cabrían de nuevo en la caja de modo que esta cierre adecuadamente lo cual es molesto cuando intentas acomodar bien tu ludoteca), las tarjetas de personaje tampoco son de tan buena calidad en cuanto a resistencia y el uso de marcadores alrededor de estas que continuamente se mueven pueden mermar rápidamente su durabilidad, los dados pudieron tener un diseño más interesante pero son sencillos y de un color adecuado a la temática pero aburrido, los contadores de peligro son de cartón también lo cual también puede mermar su resistencia al uso. Si bien estas quejas son más sobre la resistencia a el ser usado el producto es algo entendible por el bajísimo precio que pagas. Pero no por eso puede no ser un factor entre que tú decidas o no si quieres comprar este artículo. Fuera de eso estoy encantado con el juego y mi mesa de amigos lo amamos por completo. Si quieres una experiencia de zombicide sin complicaciones y de precio accesible no puedes equivocarte con Zombicide Dceased Gotham City Outbreak.

Great thanks look forward to the expansion packs
