The new “flip-and-write” game is a variation of the popular roll-and-write genre of tabletop games that have grown in popularity in recent years. While Yahtzee is the best-known roll-and-write, many designers have taken a stab at the genre, as roll-and-writes can provide a more streamlined version of existing game engines and offer a quicker and more easily replayable game experience.
Zombicide isn’t the only popular game franchise to receive a new roll-and-write adaptation. Fantasy Flight Games recently announced a Twilight Imperium roll-and-write called Twilight Inscription, which is described as the most complex roll-and-write of all time. CMON is also producing a new Zombicide adaptation of the Marvel Zombies franchise, with both hero and zombie versions of numerous Marvel superheroes.
No release date or pricing information is currently available for Zombicide: Gear Up. Expect more information to be released in the coming months.
