Zombicide: Gear Up
Zombicide: Gear Up review
Zombicide: Gear Up is a fun and fast-paced flip-and-write game that captures the essence of its bigger brother, Zombicide, in a condensed format. It's a great option for a quick gaming session with one or two players.
The game mechanics are simple to learn but provide plenty of strategic depth. The weapon hit shapes add a spatial element, forcing you to think carefully about how you allocate your attacks. The zombie advancement mechanic keeps the tension high, as you're constantly trying to stay one step ahead of the undead horde.
The solitaire mode is also surprisingly engaging, with companion cards adding an extra layer of strategy and variability. I found it to be a satisfying experience, even without another player.
Overall, I highly recommend Zombicide: Gear Up to fans of Zombicide and anyone looking for a quick and engaging flip-and-write game. It's a great choice for a casual game night or a solo gaming session.
