Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you know that our latest Kickstarter for Zpocalypse 2 is now live, check it out!

Zpocalypse 2: Defend The 'Burbs is a stand alone tower defense style game, evolved from the original Zpocalypse, a survival board game set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

When the city was overcome, we thought, 'This is the end.' Then they bombed us, and we were sure it was over. Somehow, I don't know how or why, but somehow we survived the onslaught. There were only a few of us, but we escaped the pit of hell that was the urban wasteland. They always say the suburbs have it better, right? They weren't hit nearly as hard; we've found a sturdy house. It still has a roof and everything. We're hungry, tired, and it's a struggle to hold back the dead from their nightly assaults, but we're still here, we're not going down yet.

FEATURES:
- Post-nuclear zombie apocalypse
- Co-op and versus style of play
- Modular tiles, so each play-through has variety
- Elements of a tower defense game, wrapped with tactical combat
- Instead of 1 survivor, you control a squad, this allows for the thematic death of a survivor, while the player may continue playing
- Like the original, players each control their own squad of survivors equipped to the teeth with weapons, food, and items
- Your actions as squad leader allow the survivors to choose their tasks on the daily planning board
- Each choice has limited space and will come with benefits (potential for more supplies) and costs
- With gained experience, your survivors level up on a variety skills
- Rather than picking your path for you as in the original game, now you have the ability to carve out your survival scenario for yourself

What scale are your zombies? Would they fit in with say Zombicide figures?

Crazy, I was just reading earlier today how the tiles you guys use fit the ones used in the DnD Adventure System Tiles as well as the tiles from Descent.
The timing on this is kinda lousy as a lot of people are feeling the sting in the wallet from Bones 3. I'm glad you guys have hit your goal though and I hope things continue to go well.

As a suggestion.. any chance of a tiles only pledge level?

Bones 3, sure, but most of us also just paid for Zombicide Black Plague...

I quite like the look of this, but the timing, so close to Z:BP, is fairly terrible :/

@MLaw - We wouldn't be against a tile only pledge level, we have yet to unlock any of the extra tiles though, so until that happens no.

Zpocalypse 2 enters its final week!

If you’re not already in the action check out what has been added to the $75 deluxe package.We’ve added the wasteland tiles and coming back from the long lost archive is the Mad Mechanic miniature. All pledges at the $75 – ZBURBS DELUXE and above will be given this EXCLUSIVE miniature and his special elite survivor card and blow torch armory card.
