Dead of Winter
2014 · 2-5 Players · ~60-120 min · Semi-Cooperative / Survival / Traitor
Dead of Winter is a board game that lives and dies by the stories it generates. When the Crossroads cards fire, the traitor suspicion builds, and the colony teeters on the edge of collapse, there's nothing else in the hobby that creates quite the same atmosphere of paranoid cooperation. Fiddly upkeep, inconsistent Crossroads triggers, and dice luck that can undermine careful planning keep it from reaching the top tier. But for groups that want a thematic survival experience where trust is a resource more valuable than food or fuel, Dead of Winter still delivers memorable sessions years after its release.
