Customer Review

Video on Amazon.com Watch The Walking Dead - The resistance is the second game for the Walking Dead series from Cosmos. The first was so modest reviews and should not have been playing really great.
The more tense you are, of course, on the new game, just because the series is so popular and popular. Zombie Games there are many, but a good game with the correct license is missing as yet.
And much to my surprise is Walking Dead - The resistance quite successful. It is a cooperative game in which only it goes to one: survival! Or. more concerned to secure their own resources, so that you can survive.
I have the game again created a video where I show the game play once. That's great, I think as a review that consists of 80% of it only to reproduce the sequence Spie - why is there a rule Downloads?

Briefly sees the gameplay like this: the hero move to one of four places in each round to fend off zombies there. Everyone has two cards vn where he has a play, usually come through the cards at certain places new zombies into play. The leader of each round must even play both cards, which is never good. There are heroes in the places they can fight the zombies. After the fight are more zombies in the relevant place as hero this cause damage to the hero and eventually destroy resource cards. At each location is a deck of 25 cards resources.
If one of these decks empty before the game is over, the players have lost.
The resource cards represent an interesting dilemma: Players can map from the respective stacks attract when they are at the place. This is necessary in order for example to get weapons or to get new ammunition or allies. But at the same time wants to draw as little cards as possible as you get closer by each drawn card of their own defeat.

So you have to permanently deny, look where exaggerating the lesser evil, and how you can fend off the threats brings into play itself. Each round is basically the search for the optimal train you could make quite - but that will take. And has led us to the fact that the games lasted in the basic variant loose two to three times as long as given. But what no one has perceived as bad.
Something "annoying" was just that the game is so much leciht. While it lasts, but it actually runs never losing risk. Above all, it runs almost rare risk to die, because you just can heal again the most damage and thus often simply takes into account.
We have constantly considered in our first game, we can make the game more difficult.

It is interesting because the option when you can not talk in the phase in which one plays his Event cards. So you do not know what the others have for cards and what actions they trigger. This leads then to the fact that one in front and talk after this phase thereof one must be able to how to best position itself working more efficiently, but it robs the play one of the elements that ensure that it is so cool: The ongoing debate and discuss what you will do next.

But in the variants can be obtained by simply try and see what you like best. The game as a whole is already done better than me. However, it is also always the same. One can arrange the different places and take the stack resources elsewhere, but that's my sham variability than really change. For real experienced players who otherwise only au tough stuff of FFG & Co are the resistance is probably too shallow.
The issue is only partly well captured. In The Walking Dead, there are zombies. But these zombies make more the backbone represents the background, but in the story itself is primarily concerned with the group. To the conflict in the group, interpersonal relationships, etc. A game would really capture the flair of The Walking Dead, had precisely these elements as a central theme.
In this game, it's simply to dismiss all about zombies, of the conflicts and tensions in the group there is no trace. There are license games such as Battlestar Galactica, which perfectly capture the atmosphere create a series. This is not the case with the resistance.
Those looking for a game that just creates zombies as external threat - core of the game the tensions and mistrust within the group to have a theme, which should even look at Dead of Winter. This is not yet published, but could the first reviews one of the best zombie games ever be. But is also a very different number than the resistance, which is rather designed as a family-friendly zombie game.

For people want to hear but not an hour before they start playing rules that fans of the series are and like to play is The Walking Dead - The resistance highly recommended. When a Walking Dead fan wants to give a license to the game series, then this.
