Last Night on Earth: The Zombie Game

Fun Zombie game that has a ton of re-playability. Very easy and quick to learn.

The game is harder skewed for the zombies but isn't that what you want in a horror survival game. It's super fun and is on my groups rotation list

The game is well made and is a nice clash between the human player(s) and zombie player(s). The game sets the human player into an almost watered down role playing type play style, while the zombie player(s) is/are to play a more war game like style. The clash between the two styles yields an amazing game play and an easily experienced variance between zombies and heroes. The downfall is that the zombies in the base set and horribly over-powered with the zombie deck and the game is literally stacked against the hero player(s). The expansions do fix this issue in a beautiful way however. They offer more characters for the hero player(s) to use which allows for a more tailored team for the chosen quest. The hero deck also gains cards that are comparable to the zombie deck cards. Personally this is one of my favourite games from my collection, but one should know that if one is to buy this, then the individuals should also invest in the expansions, as they round out the experience by balancing some issues found in the base game and allow for further game play options.

Fast and easy game play. Enough expansions, scenarios, and characters to keep the gameplay fresh for pretty much ever! Great modular tileset system to keep the game board different every time. And the flavor and feel of being right in a pulpy B-movie should appeal to most. Even if you play Zombicide, you have to give this game a try totally different feel and game type.

This game is a lot of fun, especially if you can get a group into the camp aspect of it. The game lacks a bit of replayability, and the expansions seem to tack on a bit more complexity than the base game can handle. Game feels a bit weighted towards the heros, but I hadn't gotten to play the dual zombies yet. The minis are a lot of fun, but several of mine came too warped to make painting worth while. A call to the manufacturer could likely fix that.

Last Night on Earth was a solid game that was entertaining to play until Zombicide came out. Granted there are enough differences to make them both good games in their own right, but the simple fact of the matter for my group is we will never play Last Night on Earth again now that Zombicide is available. If only because Zombicide is a true co-op game whereas Last Night on Earth is a semi co-op.
