Description

In Hug Me, the undead are on the prowl, and it's up to you to survive the night in Evans City Mall. This game is all about teamwork, strategy, and a little bit of luck, as 2 to 8 players navigate the modular board, rolling dice and using variable player powers to outmaneuver each other. As a human, your goal is to find the fuel tank and key, and make a break for Old Pop's Minivan, the only vehicle that can carry you to safety. But beware, because as the game progresses, you might become infected and eventually turn into a zombie, at which point your goal changes to spreading love and hugs to all the remaining humans. The game is full of unexpected twists and turns, with players using their unique abilities to steal items, barricade rooms, and search for crucial supplies. As night falls, the zombies reveal their positions, and humans must face the assault, trying to escape and avoid becoming infected. With its simple rules and fast-paced gameplay, Hug Me is a thrilling experience that's perfect for a group of friends looking for a fun and challenging game. Published in 2010 by designers Alessandro D'Angeli, Viviana De Simone, and Valerio De Simone, Hug Me has become a cult classic, with an expansion called Hug Me More available for even more zombie-filled fun. Get ready to join the horde and experience the ultimate battle between humans and zombies in this exciting 45-minute game.
