How long can you survive in the Dead of Winter?

Dead of Winter is a meta-cooperative psychological survival game. This means players are working together toward one common victory condition, but for each individual player to achieve victory, they must also complete their personal secret objective, which could relate to a psychological tick that's fairly harmless to most others in the colony, a dangerous obsession that could put the main objective at risk, a desire for sabotage of the main mission, or (worst of all) vengeance against the colony! Games could end with all players winning, some winning and some losing, or all players losing. Work toward the group's goal, but don't get walked all over by a loudmouth who's looking out only for their own interests! The game supports 2 to 5 players and takes approximately 1 or 2 hours to play through a session.

Each copy of Dead of Winter is full with a ton of awesome components:

  • 329 Cards
  • 6 Location sheets
  • 5 Player Reference Sheets
  • 30 Zombie Standees
  • 30 Survivor Standees
  • 60 Plastic Standee Stands
  • 134 Tokens
  • 1 Colony Board
  • 1 Rule book
  • 30 Action Dice
  • 1 Exposure Die
