Eat Zem All (2024)

Overview

Have you always dreamed of being a zombie?

In Eat Zem All, play as a horde of the living dead in competition with other hordes. The humans are managed by the game's A.I. (no app). They try to escape from you, or even kill you! Intolerable! Eat them all! Recover the powers of humans bitten by your zombie horde and win the game!

Each player controls a horde of zombies. Turns proceed clockwise. On your turn, you are the active horde.

Phase 1 – Zombie attack

Choose one zombie card from the row. Apply its main and bonus effects, then the other players apply only the main effects in clockwise order. Zombies move, break barricades, bite humans, and climb over obstacles. Each bite removes a bite token from the human. The player who lands the first bite on a human gains that human’s infection token – after death, that human will become one of their zombies. When a human loses their last bite token, they die. Immediately resolve the Feast: each player counts their bite tokens on that human plus their zombies adjacent to that human. The player with the highest total takes the human’s sheet and victory points. The player who owns the infection token replaces the human figure with a Crawler from their supply.

Phase 2 – Human reaction

Draw three cards from the human deck. Reveal them one by one and apply their effects. Humans shoot, move, panic, etc.

The game ends when the last human dies or escapes. Victory points are awarded for bite tokens, property tokens, and human sheets collected. The horde with the most points wins.

The uniqueness of each game comes from the double-sided game board: the House and the Cemetery – two locations with different decks and components that change the rules of the game.
