In Tiny Epic Zombies, survivors are always on the run, collecting weapons, killing zombies, and working towards completing objectives. Completing 3 objectives can win you the game, but if you focus too much on the objectives, the zombies will overrun the mall and that will be the end for you.

Based on gameplay, you will play either as one of the Survivors or as the zombies.

As a Survivor, your turn consists of moving 3 times. Then, depending on where you move, you will be able to do additional things. For example, if you move into a room with a zombie, you will have to fight it by rolling the zombie die. Or if you move into a room adjacent to a zombie, you can spend ammo to shoot it. Killing a zombie is really easy... but they keep coming. It's hard to stop them from overtaking the entire mall while you try to achieve your objectives!

After you take your 3 moves, you will search the room. This is done by revealing the Search Card you hold. Most of the time, you find something useful, like awesome items that you can later retrieve and equip on your ITEMeeples. But sometimes, you may find a zombie lurking in the corner. So be prepared.

After you search the room, more zombies flood the mall. Then it's the next player's turn. That simple!

As a Zombie player, not only will you control unique zombies with special abilities, but you will control ALL the zombies! With your help, the zombies will have brains in addition to eating them. Your goal will be to overwhelm the players with clever placement and movement of the zombies. Drown them in the horde of zombies and prevent them from completing their objectives. If you kill enough players or surpass the courtyard of the mall, you win.
