Tales tell of gold in the hills, and also stories of Zombies. For some strange reason the prospectors are turning into flesh hungry ghouls. For you, digging for gold is still high on the agenda, but with the walking dead infesting the area it isn't going to be such an easy task. The objective is for the players to move around the board, digging for gold, or digging holes for the zombies to fall into (where they are more easily dispatched). Both methods reward the players with points. But there is always the threat of each action drawing the unwelcome attention of the roaming Zombies. The zombies movement phases are in-game driven, and Cut-throat gameplay often sees other players placed between the target and the marauding ghouls.
