Right on time for Halloween! Welcome to a spine-tingling episode of the Board Game Dinner Party Podcast!

In this episode, we're diving headfirst into the heart-pounding world of "Carnival Zombie," a thrilling cooperative board game that will have you and your friends at the edge of your seats. Picture this: Venice during Carnival season, a city alive with masks, music, and mouth-watering delicacies. But suddenly, the festivities are shattered as the earth trembles and the dead rise from the canals. This is "Carnival Zombie"!

Join us as we embark on an epic adventure, guiding a group of survivors through the labyrinthine streets of Venice, fleeing from hordes of the undead. Your objective: find one of the four exit points or make a daring last stand at Doge's Palace. But beware, the game operates on a day-night cycle, with daylight hours for exploration and nighttime for survival.

When night falls, it's a whole new ballgame. Defend your refuge against waves of zombies in an intense tower defense showdown. Will your team have the cunning and firepower to repel the relentless undead horde?

Our hosts are joined by special guests, and we set the mood for this eerie escapade with a Brain Hemorrhage Shot. We also indulge in delicious Porchetta and broccolini sandwiches, followed by pine nuts and raisin frittole with gelato for dessert. You're in for a treat, both in conversation and cuisine!

So gather around the table, prepare to outwit the zombie menace, and savor the flavors of Venice as we unravel the mysteries of "Carnival Zombie." Join us for an unforgettable episode that combines gaming, storytelling, and culinary delight. Don't miss this pulse-pounding adventure in a city overrun by the undead! 

Did we escape Venice alive, or did the hoard take us?

Tune in now for a podcast episode that's a true carnival of the senses!
