Zombies!!! 8  Jailbreak

Thirty Days in the Hole

 

Jailbreak!? To all intents and purposes one could believe that it might not be bad to be in jail when zombies invade the town. In theory this is correct but in practice one zombie within the jail is enough to ruin this excellent plan. The strait jacket is not really of help either, because you start in the Closed Section of the jail and the new aim of the game is to get rid of the strait jacket and to flee the prison. At this point you can end the game or you can go on playing the basic game and try to reach the helicopter landing pad after fleeing the prison or eliminate 25 zombies to win the game.

At the start of the game all players started in the Closed Section and are wearing a strait jacket. At the start of each turn you roll for a try to get rid of the strait jacket. With a 6 you manage to discard it. If you die with the prison limits you start again in the Closed Section wearing a strait jacket. If you die outside the prison walls you start again at the entry of the prison without a strait jacket. There is also the new rule of Evasion: If you meet a zombie you can roll a die, if you roll a 3 you can evade the zombie and can continue your move, if you roll a 4 or higher you have eliminated the zombie. If you wear a strait jacket a 3 or more just allows you to avoid the zombies. For evasion rolls you cannot use ammunition markers. The evasion rule can also be used in other expansions.

As all other edition of Zombies!!! this one, too, is black, scathing, satirical and only fitting for fans of the genre, for them it is a real tidbit and a cute continuation of the story!
