Steve Jackson Games Zombie Dice
by Steve Jackson Games · Ages 10+
Researched as the best push-your-luck filler for adult game nights. Roll three dice from a cup of thirteen - brains score, shotguns kill, runners give you the choice to press on. Community consensus calls it the cleanest 10-minute filler on the shelf.

What we like
- ↑Decisions matter - press your luck mechanic creates real table tension
- ↑10-minute play time makes it a perfect appetizer before a meatier game
- ↑Cup-as-table-presence is half the fun, with satisfying dice rattle
- ↑Scales painlessly from 2 to 8 players
- ↑Two sequels (Zombie Dice 2, Zombie Dice 3) drop into the same cup for variety
Worth knowing
- ↓Zombie theme can feel dated at this point
- ↓Cup is light cardboard - won't survive being sat on
- ↓Quick games sometimes end before quieter players have warmed up
