Zombie Burrito

There are games that offer a more active proposal when it comes to facing other players and here Throw Throw Burrito has a lot to say. Your version Zombie burritowhich on Amazon has a price of 20.49 eurosvaries in mechanics, but always with the goal in mind of using the burritos to compete against other players. The objective is to form teams, collect cards in each round and If it’s time for battle… let’s throw the donkey.

This version is completely themed, so we can find variations in its cards with respect to the original game. There are antidote cards, survivor cards, zombie cards and, of course, battle cards. The idea is to form teams between zombies and survivors.

It is a game for three to six players in which the fun lies in the card that allows the donkey to be used. They are made of foam and are very soft, but I recommend that you clear the table and, above all, that don’t play next to a television. For what may happen.

Marvel Zombies

After the first season of ‘What would happen if…?‘ on Disney+, a game arrived that adapted both one of its episodes and the comics themselves. ‘Marvel Zombies‘ is a series that has just been released, so it is a good time to delve into the board game which now has a price of 84.69 eurosespecially during the month of October and especially on Halloween.

Marvel Zombies It is a game that is based on Zombicide and its objective is not exactly to kill zombies, but to kill humans. In this version we have to face both SHIELD and the superheroes who are still human. Yes, we really are the zombies.

It is a game for one to six players and some of Marvel’s most iconic characters appear. There are also many expansions, which gives more dynamism to each game if we decide to opt for them.
