Description

Dead Panic is another incredible co-operative game from designers Justin and
Anne-Marie DeWitt of Fireside Games.
Make a stand in a remote
cabin to survive the night.  Players pick
one of 8 characters, each with a special ability, to start in the center of the
board to defend against waves of zombies. 
Ranged weapons are available, but when all else fails hand-to-hand
combat will be necessary.  Players must
work together to defend the cabin until survivors can bring pieces of a radio
that will have to be assembled in order to call for a rescue.  While venturing outside the cabin one must be
extra careful as the zombies will be drawn to you.  More danger awaits you when it is your turn to
possess the Bait token.  Once the rescue
vehicle arrives players must make a run for it.
Anytime during the game
if a player takes too many injuries the character dies and comes back as a
zombie to chase down their former teammates. 
Players are aided by weapon drawn from the cabin deck and hindered by events
from the events deck.  Winners will
defend the cabin well, retrieve and assemble the radio, then sprint to the
rescue van before they too become a zombie. 
Wow, is this ever a zombie apocalypse!
