just got TWD game from zman games this weekend, and played it.

did a 4 player game.

we used the fast start rules and played it. had hoped it was more PVE vs PVP, but using the regular rules, it has a fair amount of PVE in it since your encounter cards sometimes effect other players.

There are rules to play more cooperatively, as well as solitary rules.

we are going to play it again using the coop rules, and I may try a solitare game this evening.

Overall.. much better than some of the other 'small' zed games I've picked up int he last few months.. like zombie town and zombie survival, and better IMHO than zombies!! not as good as LNOE.

neat that each player character has special abilities, and other survivors have specials, and some that work with other specials.

i got lucky.. played andrea and right off the bat, the survivor I started with was amy.. so I got an extra wound capacity.... etc.

there are a few catches inthe rules that hopefully there is a faq on.. but otherwise pretty smooth play.

one catch is dale seemingly gets no special when he uses a gas token, vs anyone else using a gas token.. we fixed this by letting dale's character move 2 spaces using gas, even if it was a non clear space, vs anyone else using gas that could move 2 if it was an open space... etc.

will see if there is a faq on it.
