Description

A brand new evolution of Pox: Save the People, ZOMBIEPOX challenges 1-4 players to stop an approaching zombie apocalypse by vaccinating humans against the ZOMBIEPOX. Cure those in the most dire situations and protect the vulnerable who cannot be immunized. (No one wants zombie babies!) Win the game if the deadly ZOMBIEPOX can no longer spread. Lose if too many people become full-blown zombies.

Not only is the game fun, but through play and the zombie themed narrative, players gain an understanding of group immunity, the need to vaccinate, and systems thinking. Casual and hardcore gamers from 12-65 and have enjoyed ZOMBIEPOX.

Players alternate drawing cards. Each card specifies how the ZOMBIEPOX spreads, and then which resources the player has to combat the outbreak. It's important to protect the vulnerable people on the board, because if they become infected, they immediately succumb to zombification.
