About The Cemetery
Shovels and Tombs, rotten Corpses and Zombies, the life of an undertaker is plenty of dangers. Keeping your cemetery in check is a challenging job! First, you need to bury corpses, then you need to keep them buried! You can’t rest a minute. Tombs are scarce and you may just think to bury corpses in any tomb, but don’t be fooled, these are the corpses that will haunt you! As soon as you think you may keep your dirty deeds in the ground, someone could just exhume a corpse and let you end up with a zombie in your cemetery! It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it! The Cemetery is a cynical fast-paced game, easy to learn and fun to play where you cover the role of an Undertaker and your job is to bury corpses 3 meters under. Each corpse has a value and until their tombs are sealed you need to watch out! Your opponents can exhume your corpses and rise a zombie in your cemetery! All corpses in sealed tombs are your Victory Points. Every card holds an ability, choose which to bury and which to use to support your plan and undermine your opponents', Developments can help you find the finest strategy to achieve victory. Strategically intriguing for the savvier players, The Cemetery with its minimalist design is suitable for everyone thanks also to the alternative easy setup for the youngest players. Beautifully illustrated by Agni Sen (has worked on Disney and Nickelodeon animated shows), The Cemetery comes in 2 versions, “original edition” and “Pet edition” that combined can be played by up to 8 people. Your dream finally comes true… You are now in charge of the afterlife! Grab your shovel, start digging, and build the most fun Cemetery in Town.
