That's horrible. I've played Zombies!!! it is a fun game. I think of it as a grown up version of Sorry, you can move the zombies in such a way to royally screw your opponents.
And I'm afraid that people generally don't recover from stage IV cancer...there is no stage V =/ A former coworker of mine died from stage IV lung cancer. She lingered for about a year. Several rounds of radiation and chemotherapy just ravaged her body. She was so...emaciated. It killed me to see her so miserable. Very sad news. |

That's truly awful news. Zombies!!! is the reason I bought LNOE, and is in part responsible for my ongoing obsession.
He leaves behind some truly remarkable games that innovated within the genre. Something he created will long outlive him, and has inspired some and given enjoyment to many others. I hope that's some consolation to his friends and family. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD |

RE: "Zombies!!!" board game creator Todd Breitenstein fighing cancer
Yeah, it's hard to believe he's gone. "Zombies!!!" was my entry in to boardgaming, I was a superfan from word go, continued to be big TCI fans ever since. One of the things I've enjoyed ever since is the steady flow of expansions for "Zombies!!!" plus new games of every kind. I had just bought "Zombie Survival" last year & it's a great decision making simulator of the titular subject.
So the reality that Todd isn't with us any more is still a bitter pill that I have a hard time swallowing. ---MS "If you had any sense, you'd leave now! Get out while ya still can! It's too late for th' rest'a us. The Horseman rides tonight, an' he's comin' to take us all ta Hell!" |
