A Cooperative hybrid; Defensive Combat, Area Control, Worker Placement, Territory Building, Push Your Luck, Strategic Survival Game. Outbreak is a cooperative board game for 1 to 8 players. You play as a survivor group in a post-apocalyptic world where you are trying to protect the Survivor City from the zombie hordes, before they reach the Main Base and kill the helpless inside. Players control a skilled survivor or team of survivors (in solo play), that must work together to fight back the hordes of zombies. Players start by constructing the survivor city around the Main Base. This safe area is now surrounded by zombie hordes whose goal is to reach the main base and eat all the survivors inside, overrunning settlements along the way. When a settlement is overrun, players can no longer request its support, so each turn players must attempt to destroy zombie hordes and prepare for the next wave of attacks. This is a very challenging game where cooperation is the key to surviving the zombie apocalypse! No two games will ever be the same. The game features over 100 different zombies, over 20 survivor settlements and over 150 action cards, which combine for a fresh challenge every time you play.
