The ever popular Zombies!!! board game is set to be made into a video game and Steam will be one of the distribution methods for the title.
“Zombies!!! is a perfect game for the Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation 3 Network,†said Mr. Gerritsen. “We were surprised that no one had seen the huge potential in the Zombies!!! property.â€Everybody loves Zombies. Everybody.
Originally released in 2001, Zombies!!! has been a consistent seller and is considered one of the core products in the hobby-game industry. The base set has sold over 125,000 copies worldwide. It has also spawned many expansions and spin-offs. Combined, Zombies!!! products have sold in excess of 300,000 units.
In Zombies!!! players race around the board trying to find a way to escape the ever-growing zombie horde. The game is simple to play and extremely addictive according to its fans. The tile based board and the many expansions work to keep the game fresh and new each time you play it.
“We are tremendously excited,†said Twilight Creations’ President Todd Breitenstein adding, “This is a great opportunity for both of our companies. Zombies!!! is a great property and we really can’t wait to share it with a much broader audience.â€
