Survive Alive - Board Game Review - 5 Reasons to be Excited

Survive Alive is a competitive medium weight strategy based draw and write game set in a post-apocalyptic world.
Each round, survivors (players) need to manage their resources drawn from the community bag, build facilities for their characters in order to increase the community health and morale and most importantly defend their base to protect from the Zeds.
Players may scavenge the map for influence or befriend characters to boost their resource pile and grow the community.
At the end of each round, hordes of Zeds will be looking for flesh and if you can’t beat them, you may be joining them!!
The player with the most influence points at the end of the sixth round is declared the winner.

There's a lot to it, think you'll enjoy the depth that's here

[@stefanosstefanos401]

Reminds me of "Dead of winter" but with solo mode.

Thematically there is of course a similarity, but the mechanism work differently, in particular no traitors here! 🧟‍♂️

[@greenskynz]

it would be interesting to compare against Final Girl. as a guy i havent been convinced yet to get final girl despite having so many great reviews. this seems more like a euro game, less dice luck dependent. and graphics just more resonate with me. waiting for this to be available on Amazon. if i dont have a Final Girl which of the games would you recommend?

[@BoxedMeeples]

To be honest, this game is nothing like Final Girl. That game is a solo player only game where you must rescue survivors while attacking a monster. You move your character around a board purchasing cards to do specific actions. Survive Alive meanwhile is a tower defense style game, where you draw resources from a bag to build up your base. There is dice rolling in Final Girl but he gameplay is really all about luck mitigation . There is no guarantee that Survive Alive will have a retail release, so you may not be able to buy it on Amazon.
