Start by distributing each player a survivor control sheet, miniatures and initial equipment cards. The survivors are represented by miniatures on the board and have special abilities that can evolve.

Set up the board according to the chosen scenario, placing the tokens in the designated zones and preparing the Zombie deck. Each scenario has specific preparation rules and objectives to be achieved.

Each turn, players activate their survivors, allowing three actions per character. They can move, attack, change equipment or interact with the environment. Plan these actions carefully to control the zombies and achieve objectives.

After all the players have completed their actions, it's time for the zombies. They move towards the survivors and attack if they are in the same zone. Reveal and resolve zombie invasion cards to add new enemies to the board.

Survivors earn experience points by eliminating zombies and completing objectives. With more points, they level up and unlock new abilities, but this also increases the danger, attracting more dangerous zombies.

Change and equip weapons to adapt to situations. Use spells and the survivors' unique abilities to deal with the increase in difficulty as the game progresses.

Work as a team to surround the zombies without getting caught. Use strategies based on the type of zombie you're facing, as some are faster or more resistant. Effective communication between players is essential to survive and win.

The game ends when the players reach the objective of the scenario or if all the survivors die. Manage your resources and skills to maximize your chances of success.
