Description Description
Game description from the publisher: "Crossroads" is a new series from Plaid Hat Games that tests a group of survivors' ability to work together and stay alive while facing crises and challenges from both outside and inside. Dead of Winter: A Crossroads Game, the first game in this series, puts 2-5 players in a small, weakened colony of survivors in a world where most of humanity is either dead or diseased, flesh-craving monsters. Each player leads a faction of survivors with dozens of different characters in the game. Dead of Winter is a meta-cooperative psychological survival game. This means players are working together toward one common victory condition – but for each individual player to achieve victory, he must also complete his personal secret objective. This secret objective could relate to a psychological tick that's fairly harmless to most others in the colony, a dangerous obsession that could put the main objective at risk, a desire for sabotage of the main mission, or (worst of all) vengeance against the colony! Certain games could end with all players winning, some winning and some losing, or all players losing. Work toward the group's goal, but don't get walked all over by a loudmouth who's looking out only for his own interests! Dead of Winter is an experience that can be accomplished only through the medium of tabletop games. It's a story-centric game about surviving through a harsh winter in an apocalyptic world. The survivors are all dealing with their own psychological imperatives, but must still find a way to work together to fight off outside threats, resolve crises, find food and supplies, and keep the colony's morale up. Dead of Winter has players making frequent, difficult, heavily-thematic, wildly-varying decisions that often have them deciding between what is best for the colony and what is best for themselves.

Dead of Winter ist ein hervorragendes Beispiel für emergentes Gameplay. Das Spiel kombiniert kooperative und kompetitive Elemente und lässt die Spieler in einer ständigen Spannung zwischen Vertrauen und Misstrauen agieren. Die Crossroads-Karten fügen unerwartete Wendungen hinzu, und die Entscheidungen der Spieler haben langfristige Auswirkungen auf das Spiel, was zu einem dynamischen und sich ständig entwickelnden Erlebnis führt.

This is my favorite game of all. This one has an incredible complexity that keeps the players thinking while still being digestible from turn to turn so it doesn’t create confusion or boredom. The intensity of this game lies in the spell it casts over the players where they are constantly feeling the pressure of all the dangers approaching them with a lack of time to address them all. I hardly ever win while playing this one but will happily do so whenever I have the chance.

Great semi-cooperative game for up to 5 people. This game flows really well and has plenty of action and tense moments. Watch the 'Watch it Played' videos to learn how to run it. My wife also had the idea to play it without using the traitor card, to please some of the group who dislike that mechanic. I think it is top notch either way.

Similarly to Arkham horror, what I really liked here was the immersion, worldbuilding and teamwork. The setting reminded me of Frostpunk (duh). Would always recommend and enjoy a game session.

My favorite board game in my collection. I love the traitor mechanics, it is deeper than a zombicide but yet enjoyable when it comes to slain some zombies and I also appreciate the little character customization with weapons
