Gen Con: Our Zombie Lovers Menu
August 9th, 2013
Conventions, News
It’s almost time to do the zombie shuffle at Gen Con! We open the con on Weds nite by kicking off the fourth and final quarter of the Pittsburgh 68 Zombie World Series. But don’t worry – this game does not play like baseball! It plays like a creepy 60’s zombie flick. One by one, as Survivors are eliminated, they join the Zombie side of the table, shuffling back into the game in Living Dead style!
Below is the full event list for our Pittsburgh 68 games. We added the “Play With The Creator” events last week. Important: These late events will NOT appear in the Gen Con program, but you can find them all via Gen Con’s online registration system. That will also list current availability for each game.
Don’t forget to visit the GameWick Games booth at GenCon and check out our fine, fine games!

Full: Grim thrills and chills await in Pittsburgh 68, a card-n-dice game that plays like a creepy, classic zombie movie! With each and every turn, a central dealt hand of cards reveals horrible events, and players do their best to stay one step ahead of the zombie shuffle. A cooperative game until it’s not, players face an ever growing zombie problem (which they might end up being a part of). When a player is eliminated, they don’t stop playing–they just shuffle back into the game as a zombie in classic Living Dead style! A new and creepy game from GameWick Games.
The Zombie World Series: Pittsburgh 68

Full: Pittsburgh 68 is a fast-paced card-n-dice game that plays like a good old creepy zombie flick. Players are never truly out of the game-if eliminated, they just shuffle back in as zombies.

Will the Survivors prevail for the series or will it be a total zombie apocalypse?!? Series results announced at the end of the summer!
