Zombie Fluxx
2007 (2008 Zombie Boss Boxx version) / Card game / 2-4 players
***
Having already parted with the uninteresting Star Fluxx, I wasn't planning on adding more themed variations to the collection, but this vintage set looked like a distinct enough experience from the standard game to be fun and have character, while also coming in a nice wooden box, for some reason.
As hoped, the constant threat of the zombie horde and addition of the Ungoal game-over condition make it more of an actual game and the generic tropes keep it on the approachable level of a lighthearted zombie apocalypse simulation rather than an overly-referential parody for nerds. Throwing in the Flamethrower promo and soundtracking it with the Misfits bumps it up to ****.
