Old school graphics
I loved playing this game before the cooperative element was added and now it's even MORE fun.
It reminds me of old school Farmville for gameplay but the old gameboy Pokemon games for graphic style... Except its had a makeover in colour and a bit of an upgrade.
I can spent hours playing this game as there is always something to be done or going on and I love building and growing the farm.
Have seen they are also due to release a phone version of this game which I will TOTALLY be downloading to play as well!
  
Tiny Epic Zombies
Tiny Epic Zombies
2018 | Collectible Components, Horror, Zombie / Survivalist
Another in the Tiny Epic series, this one take the trope of co-op zombie survival games and turns it into a small package. The component quality is great, with sweet looking motorcycle and car that your Meeples can fit in, as well as each character Meeple able to hold weapons.

Gameplay wise, the object is for the human players to complete three randomly objectives while the zombies (either controlled by an automa or another human player) tries to eat the civilians/players while running around 8 different rooms around a central courtyard. Combat is done with either rolling in melee, or spending ammo for ranged. There's a great risk vs. reward with ranged and melee, with ranged being consistent, but spends a resource every time, while melee can potentially lose health, but can also go on a zombie killing rampage. The health system is a balance between health and ammo. If your ammo is ever less then the damage you've taken, you get eaten instantly.

I found that playing can be a little bit finicky, especially if the zombie is an automata instead of a human. The pieces are tiny (appropriate) and the gameplay can be stressful ( appropriate for a zombies coop). The missions can be a bit annoying at times and aren't equally fun or challenging.

All in all, tiny epic zombies is a serviceable co-op game that fits its theme very well and definitely looks great.

Doesn’t feature everyone in the MCU
No expansion packs
Feels like Endgame finale when you win
Thanos Rising is unexpectedly a very likeable game. It appears complicated initially but once you learnt the core basics, there’s not that much more to it to really get into the game. Multiple sessions have provided various outcomes from near to death to colossal victory and there’s no short cut to win strategy. It’s essentially down to the roll of the dice. And then you have to make a decision: build your team and get power ups or stop the Thanos henchmen from killing off potential team members. Sometimes it is clear cut, others not so much. Which is why it is important it is co operative.
It’s not without its flaws: it can get repetitive after a while and eventually playing it on difficult is the only way to play to make things interesting but it does provide a great night entertainment.

Worth the 20 year wait!
Literally have played this franchise since I was 8. Never even for a second imagined there being a third installment. When it came out I couldn't afford it, and the wait for the game made finally besting each difficulty and getting the fill story line so very worth it. The Seasonal Play, (comes as an option, not a pass like with Fortnite or Paladins) further adds to the excitement of rare loot and drops. Granted, you are playing the same game over and over, and for some people that would be infuriating, however, it's part of the reason I love the game so much.

Highly recommended
My girlfriend's father picked up this game at a local shop the other day, and this week we've played it 7 times, which should be a testament to the replayability.

You play as some professionals who are working together to cure the raising diseases in the world. Sounds simple enough, until you throw in your epidemics and infections, which will leave you communicating with your team to try and effectively deal with it.

Be warned, it is a game you will often lose, but each game makes you want to try again.

I would advise watching a YouTube video for proper rules.
