Zombie Dice - How To Play

[@ShadowofthePhalanx]

There is absolutely no disputing Rodneys status as the best how to play explainer ever. It's just a bonus that he's loaded with charisma! Great job, you're always my go-to!

[@WatchItPlayed]

So glad you've enjoyed the videos - thanks for the kind feedback!

[@savasyn]

Oh wow, I've been playing this game for years. Never expected a Watch It Played for it, though. It's still our go-to warm up or cool down game. Good, silly fun :)

[@WatchItPlayed]

Hey hey, glad you've been enjoying it too - this was a game I picked up early when I was getting back into the hobby. Nice to be able to cover it.

[@shadowops62]

One of my favorites. Didn't know there was a deluxe edition. Thanks for the throw back!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for coming by to check it out :)

[@CerealKiller143]

As note about the standard version, using the cup is a bit loud so take that into consideration. If you don't wish to but the deluxe version I would recommend purchasing some felt or a similar material to line in the inside of the cup with to dampen the sounds the dice make when shaking the cup.

[@jonkirk2118]

Looks like a lot of fun! I really like that you sometimes look at older games like this. Many thanks Rodney and team.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Glad you enjoyed checking it out Jon!

[@ShunyValdez]

6:00 I like that you rolled the shotgun symbol. Either you tried many times (we appreciate the commitment) or you got lucky on your first tries (or unlucky for this game).

[@mariocrest]

The very first game that got me into Modern Board Games. Looooove it!

[@LungEater]

love it. games that can be taught in 5 minutes but are still super fun are always a good time.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Agreed!

[@specimenseven]

I love playing this game with my nieces and nephew. My nephew and I over two separate games rolled all brains 3 at a time and had to put all the dice in to start a new roll. (Hope this makes sense)

[@WatchItPlayed]

Wowzers - you must have been stuffed from all those brains :)

[@jennifersims5528]

One of my favorite games! I love it. Thanks for the video. 😁

[@WatchItPlayed]

You're very welcome Jennifer!

[@gibsonsimpson]

How awesome. I found your channel years ago due to this very game. Great game. Thank you for the content over these years!

[@WatchItPlayed]

No kidding? That's really cool :)

[@gibsonsimpson]

@@WatchItPlayed Yes! And it has been awesome to watch you content and the evolution of it. Great job!

[@RamonMercadoReyes]

Recently got this game to play with my children during travel… love it!!!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Glad you're enjoying!

[@mikeforner7797]

I have always adored this game!!

[@bathth3ory]

I'd love to know, Sir Rodney, how it feels to know how loved your channel is and how it feels to be the person most synonymous with board games. 😀

[@WatchItPlayed]

Well, I can say that I'm glad that "you" are enjoying - thank you!

[@bathth3ory]

@@WatchItPlayed You're so cool! 😀 Thanks from all of us for your much respected and valued contributions.

[@B3RT1822]

Very informative thank you

[@WatchItPlayed]

You're welcome!

[@MsGinahidesout]

Ooooo, the dice are pretty!

[@WatchItPlayed]

And deadly!

[@henriwhitehead]

Love the video! I’ve never heard of this one.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Happy to get a chance to share it with you!

[@boardgameman6298]

It's nice to take a step backward to admire older games. 😀

[@96632777]

I agree.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Indeed! And fun to think this might be a brand new game, for someone just entering the hobby now.

[@caseys.7804]

I bought the unopened basic game for 50 cents at a thrift store last month. Maybe if we play it enough, I'll buy the expansions. Thank you for your video as always!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Nice find!

[@bavideomaker29]

An oldie but a goodie

[@lemiless]

WHAAAAAAT?.... Did this game come out a decade ago? I love it!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Sure did - we cover older and newer games here :)

[@lemiless]

I'm glad it's available again!

[@MaybeAnnatar]

This is on of those games that the first time I played it I was like "We must be doing something wrong this is too simple" we were not

[@WatchItPlayed]

Glad this helped ensure that :)

[@Webedelic2]

Thank you for allowing me to be lazy. Good explanation.

[@WatchItPlayed]

A pleasure to assist :)

[@ekconley6429]

Wow, did a double take with this video in my notifications! Fun game though, really should get it out more!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Surprise! :)

[@ltminion6814]

We use a 20 sided dice for keeping track of score

[@WatchItPlayed]

Good thinking!

[@ltminion6814]

@@WatchItPlayed Wish I could take credit, my buddy who introduced me thought of it! Tip for others wanting to use 20 sided dice, get spin down dice so the numbers are beside each other and you don't have to search each time for the number you need!

[@waldemarcordero8923]

Hi, Rodney. I want to know where I can buy those giant three meeples you guys have to decorate the background of your studio.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Those come from our logo and were custom made.

[@GeorgeZupster]

I can not imagine you like zombie dice, when I saw Pendragon and other COIN games .)

[@WatchItPlayed]

You would be surprised at most of my collection then, as my tastes are very broad. I suppose some people might only enjoy one type of game, but I like everything from very approachable party games, to dauntingly complex war games. I'm thankful my tastes are wide, as it allows me to enjoy featuring a variety of games here.

[@JoseeBissonnette]

What is the orange pet paw dice for in the cup game?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Do you have a time stamp to the section of the video you are asking about?

[@kishorepurohit8010]

Dear Rodney - Request if you can do a video on Condottiere.. i my view its an awesome game.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5XXdaisfrqUbKM&t=342

[@joserosas7975]

Which dice are better for colorblindness . Black or transparent ?

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'm not sure as I'm not colorblind, and I think there are different degrees of it, so it may vary from person to person.

[@reginarodriguez-martin4928]

Was debating whether or not to get this for a Halloween party. You convinced me to do it! Thanks.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Have a great time playing!

[@SunfishJones777]

i bought the cup version and it had a blue dice with paw prints, the manual had nothing on it, do you what it does?

[@WatchItPlayed]

That’s a different version, so I can’t say (as I don’t have it).

[@WhitieWu]

Yhatzombee!

[@doodleman0170]

for those cards once you cross out the brain can you erase them or do you throw them away?

[@WatchItPlayed]

It's dry erase marker, so it wipes right off.

[@jukeboxhero30]

Hi! Can you guys do a video on Lost Ruins of Arnak? Would be a HUGE help. Thanks!

[@WatchItPlayed]

Hi, could you do an explaination of Tiny Epic Dungeons?

[@Fr05t1984]

New deluxe copy? The one I have doesn’t have translucent dice, that style cloth bag and dry wipe boards

[@WatchItPlayed]

Maybe they made some adjustments?

[@ChrisWhite2008]

How many takes did it take to do the box flip and have it land upright?

[@WatchItPlayed]

Are you suggesting it wasn't on the first attempt?! *gasp*

[@steveparker796]

Don't feel bad. I thought your "BRAINS!" was very nice.

[@WatchItPlayed]

Thanks Steve :)

[@michaklaarenbeek7966]

Which expansions are most worthwhile?

[@voldosmith]

The big yellow dice

[@ekconley6429]

All of them... well both? Double Feature (comes with multiple dice) and the Bus one! I did find that I never really got used to what the symbols meant, so I always had to look them up, but they're fun!

[@alb3318]

We use little plastic brains to keep track of score ...

[@caseys.7804]

That sounds awesome. Where did you buy the plastic brains and how many did you buy?

[@alb3318]

@@caseys.7804 We got them from Amazon, got 50 of them. They were called bag o brains by twilight creations. Note, they are pretty small but they work for us.

Thank you kindly :)

[@the5thmusketeer215]

Thanks for that, Rodney… Another FLAWLESS presentation from the most easy to understand & follow Gaming Channel in the business. Whenever my family wants to learn a new game, nowadays, I ALWAYS show them YOUR VIDEO on it. 😊👍 That SPARES THEM from being subjected to the “Slow Death & Terminal Boredom” 🥱😴 of having to listen to me reading the Rules out to them… And SPARES ME the frustration of having THEM constantly interrupt to ask me for clarifications of a rule THAT WOULD BE CLARIFIED by the rules themselves 🤦🏻‍♂️ - if they only had the PATIENCE to wait until THE NEXT PARAGRAPH of the rules are read out… 😣🤷🏻‍♂️ Incidentally, ZOMBIE DICE is one of my all time favourite portable games… Great fun & easy to pick up & play anywhere. EVEN BETTER - it’s also available as an EXCELLENT standalone APP that’s IDEAL when installed on an iPad, because it comes with excellent (OPTIONAL) sound effects & zombie graphics, so you hear & see the Dice being rolled, hear & see a cartoon animation of the Shotgun Blasts & also watch & hear the mumbling advice, congratulations & ridicule of the Zombie Players who can compete with you as automated stand-ins for live players - thereby allowing you to play the game SOLO against them, or to include as many automated zombies as you wish, to augment the number of live players that you have… HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thanks Again, Rodney 😊🤝😎 & Best Wishes to You & Your Family ~ LOUIS C.

[@WatchItPlayed]

I'm going to check that app out - thanks for mentioning it! And thanks for such kind words about the videos - that really means a lot. I'm also pleased that we can virtually team up to help tach the games in your house! Does this make e the 6th Musketeer? :)
