About the game
She was born from a cesspool of mutating Virus and Zombi corpses, a toxic pit dug by the Survivors to dump their defeated enemies in. She is the manifestation of Dr. Z's lixir, arisen to exterminate the Survivors and to make the walking dead her immortal slaves. The remaining Survivors, the last of the living, finally band together in a last desperate struggle for survival and to rid the Isle of the Virus-Infected Undead once and for all. Chaos Isle: Survivors is a 28-card Character Replacement Upgrade for Chaos Isle: Zombi Deck. The deck contains every Character ever made for Chaos Isle, six brand new Characters, and the all-devouring Brood Mother, a sort of anti-hero Character with her own set of rules. All cards have brand new artwork and design. Also included are rules for Outbreak: an entirely new way to play the game using strategic cooperative play, and Split Personality: a new way to enhance Mission-Based game styles.

Questions and answers
Chaos Isle: Survivors supports 1–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Chaos Isle: Survivors is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Chaos Isle: Survivors for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Chaos Isle: Survivors has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
