Hi Pimp - I have one issue with your interpretation of the 'zombies get in and eat some people' rule.

My read is - if zombies => people in shop, then one person is eaten - after eating one person, they all go away.

The rule says "Once each player has the chance to placy one or more cards, if there is still trouble outside (if there re still enough zombies outside to come into a location) the vote is taken and a character is eaten....

After this feast, all of the zombies preent in front of this location are teken off the game board."

This rule is confusing, I'll grant you, however I have seen some discussion of this on BGG, and I believe that only one character can get eaten in any of the non-carpark spaces.

That issue aside, I think your reviews are great - keep em coming!

That is completely correct. In any place but the Parking Lot, only one character is eaten and all the zombies leave that location.

I've thought about the "not enough zombies" thing, and suggest this:

When there's MORE zombies than players, they still eat just one player, but only one zombie leaves that location for that turn. That means on the next turn there's still an equal number of zombies to players.

This forces players to act more drastically on the next turn, and ups the ante. It makes sense too... if there's a fresh kill, zombies tend to flock in rather than out.

I think you can still clear out all the zombies when you have an even ratio that results in a kill (and thematically chalk it up to killing the distracted zombies as they eat).

Another thing I thought about was when a character is eaten by zombies, they become a zombie (perhaps place a zombie figure on top of the player token), and they remain at that location trying to get back in. These character zombies do not get cleared out after attacks.
