Just as its predecessor (Rebel Princess) was an elevated version of a traditional card game (Hearts), Zombie Princess is a new take on Spades.

“All in all, I give Zombie Princess an eight. I think it's just shy a little bit of Rebel Princess for me, ultimately because of my preference of Hearts over Spades. But again, I still think it's fantastic and I think it'll click with all of the folks that I just mentioned.”

“If you are looking for an accessible game with thinking and a fun theme to play with your family or game group, I recommend Zombie Princess and the Enchanted Maze. It also makes a great gift.”

“For us, Zombie Princess shines brightest as a team game where players have to work together like Bridge partners to help finesse each other's trick totals.”

“Ultimately the game works and can be fun to play on the first couple plays or with the right type of people, but I'm afraid it won't last the test of time and won't find time on my table compared to the games I have in my collection currently.”

“I had considerable hopes for Zombie Princess and Enchanted Maze. And the game turned out to be a little bit disappointing, uh a little bit underwhelming. One thing is just the production and the way the physical components interact.”(6:17)
