I’ll have to ask Elliott if this can be considered a “Spooky Wednesday” post but, as we reported months back, a sequel to the out of print Mall of Horror has been in development and City of Horror now has a release date …or month at least. October will bring the latest in zombie gaming to your table as Asmodee Editions and Repos Production have teamed up to introduce another game of survival horror.
We’ll bring you more about City of Horror from Gen Con as there’ll be a prototype at the show.
From Asmodee:
In City of Horror, you’re playing a group of humans faced with a zombie invasion. The struggle against the dead is important, but your own survival is vital! To win, you’ll have to make alliances but also betray your companions.
A game is played over 4 turns. Each turn represents one hour of time before reinforcements arrive. These turns are played out similarly: zombies arrive, players move one of their characters and then each location is resolved (power and attack).
At the end of the 4 turns of play, the player with the most victory points (characters, food and antidote) wins the game. But be careful: to get into the helicopter, the players will have to make sure each of their living characters has been vaccinated.
