About the game
From the publisher: Unbeknownst to most living humans, zombies enjoy the competitive atmosphere of racing. Frequently shown in movies as masses of undead seeking nourishment, these zombies actually depict a group participating in a no-holds-barred zombie marathon. At other times, it's just another example of humans intruding in a private sporting event at a local graveyard - just a couple of zombies trying to improve themselves by reaching the ghoul-line. After all, what self-respecting zombie doesn't dream of becoming a ghoul? Zombie Rally depicts zombies at their competitive best. Zombie Rally is a non-collectible card game of zombie foot racing to two to six players ages 10 and up. It includes 54 cards and instructions. You will probably need a pen or pencil and some sort of scrap paper to keep score. Games can last from 15 minutes to an hour, depending on players.

Questions and answers
Zombie Rally supports 2–6 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 Zombie Rally is 15 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 Zombie Rally for ages 12 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.
Zombie Rally has a complexity rating of 1.1 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a 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.
