I have the chance to pick up Zombies and the 3 add ons for a good price.

My question is - Is this a fun game?

I know one guy who raves about it, but he has yet to meet a game that he didn't think was the best game ever, if you know what I mean.

Your opinions, either way, would be appreciated.

I like it. What expansions did you get? #6, Six Feet Under is the best, as it is a true expansion, and adds some very good rules for the end game.

Zombies!!! is a fun fun game. I've got 2 expansions the mall and university. University isn't really worth it since the zombies outnumber the tokens by a wide margin. It's tough to run through it and make it to the helipad. The mall is awesome, but Dawn of the Dead is one of my favorite Zombie genre films (the original not the remake)

I'll have to get this C.H.U.D. six feet under pack

The 3 add-ons are:

Set 2
Set 3
Set 3.5

Those are good fun ones. I would probably order them like this in order to get:

3.5
6
5
3
2
4

I own the game plus a couple of expansions.

It's a great easy to learn game, one that you and your friends can sit down to play when you don't have anything else you'd rather do.

One lesson I learned: don't play this game with sore losers. Those people are bound to have their feelings hurt the entire game session. It's a "screw your opponents before they screw you" style game.

A long time ago, we played a variant with it called "Stormies" where instead of Zombies we put Stormtroopers on the tiles while Luke, Han, and Leia tried to get off the planet via the transport shuttle (helicopter). SWM rules applied in terms of attacking, and there were cover rules, but I've forgotten.

Yeah, its a glorified Sorry. I love playing it with my brother.

OK, I am going to pick it up.

Thanks for the advice/opinions everyone.

I played a walk on game with some guys who take it More Seriously than we[SWM] do!
they had color coded mini's, dog Zombie minis and everything
Still VERY fun

tip from those guys:
You can NEVER have enough Packs of the Zombies

My LGS tried to sell me this game a while back. I didn't have any spare money at the time but now you guys have reminded me of it I think I'll ask if he has any copies left.

This is true; I had to go out and buy the 100 zombie pack after getting an expansion or two. That's how you know the game is really fun actually. You need more zombies to kill
