Description

The Plum Island Horror is a thrilling cooperative game for 1 to 4 players that drops you into a desperate fight for survival. In this 2023 release from designer Hermann Luttmann, you'll join forces with friends to evacuate a city under siege by a horrific outbreak, all while trying to contain the threat from spreading beyond the island. With six unique factions to choose from, each with its own strengths and weaknesses, you'll need to work together to optimize your group's abilities and overcome the challenges that lie ahead. As you play, you'll experience a mix of tactical unit management and tower-defense style survival mechanics, making for a game that's both strategic and intense. With a playtime of 45 to 180 minutes, you can expect a deeply immersive experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to fans of board games, and the cooperative gameplay means you'll win or lose together, sharing the blame or basking in the glory of your collective success. Will you be able to contain the horror and save the world from certain doom, or will you succumb to the outbreak and suffer the consequences? There's only one way to find out.
