What this is
In Zombicide: Black Plague, players work together to kill zombies in the Middle Ages. Then kill more zombies. Players take on the zombie invasion from the medieval streets to secret vaults that create quick passages through the citadel (and often hold special artifacts). Zombicide: Black Plague allows they take control of paladins, dwarves, knights, and magicians, wielding powerful swords, crossbows, and even magic spells to defeat the zombie hordes and its Necromancer overlords.
