Previews & REVIEWs
The Friendly Boardgamer (not paid)
"Card Z is definitely a “different” kind of zombie game. It is very much a survival game and it is fairly unforgiving and hard. But what it does do is create stories. Stories like the time you got mauled by the feral dog whilst trying to hit it with your bat. Or the time you shot a zombie clean in the head but attracted a load more. Or the time when you just needed some food and managed to scavenge for a few scraps and a tin can. It is not for the feint hearted."

The vision I have for the game is very specific, and the process of bringing that to fruition has been an incredible 5 year long journey. We are grateful for all the collaborations and play-testers throughout the journey (especially the early ones) and we are happy with the result. It's truly realistic, play it find out if you can handle the truth!
