Zombee

There can be only one!

 

ZomBee hungry! ZomBee wants honey! Your honey!

The game features honey drops, flowers with bees, question marks and ZomBee on the backside as well as dice with symbols for Zzz, Bee, honey and ZomBee.

14 flowers tiles are shuffled and laid out, flower side up. The active player takes five dice and can set aside dice after each roll and re-roll dice; all in all you have three rolls per turn. The yellow symbols – bee, honey drop and Zzz – can be set aside. ZomBee symbols must be set aside and can be re-rolled, if you roll Zzz in your next turn; you need one Zzz symbol for each ZomBee and must roll both dice together.

Our roll is scored in a given order: Zzz symbols are ignored; three or more honey drops in a roll give you one honey marker, you can never own more than three honey markers at any time in the game. For each ZomBee in the roll you must turn over a flower: For a bee nothing happens; for a question mark you choose another player who must turn over a flower, the question mark remains open. If ZomBee is revealed by the active or the other player, the round ends and the active player discards a honey drop; if you must hand in the last one, you are out of the game. All flowers are turned back over and shuffled. If so far, Zombee is not revealed, one flower for each bee on the table must be turned over, one by each player in turn and resolved as before. When ZomBee was not found at all, bees and questions marks stay open for the next round. The last one in play wins!

Fast-paced and nicely aggravating, a nice game for a filler or for traveling. Of course, Zombee appears in my third roll. Greedy beast! Grrrr!
