Moreover, the Game Master (GM) will have the tough task of getting acquainted with all of his/her roles, that of the Player Characters (PC) and with the specifics of the game and read through the whole book before beginning the first session. There are some pre-made scenarios but these come into play only after progressing for a bit. For such an audience, a game with more strict instructions might be better. However, this might feel daunting for newcomers to the genre or to tabletop games as a whole. While the core book provides all the necessary information and a couple of scenarios, what goes on and how, the description of locations and events is really done while you play. As such, even if the board game isn't particularly new, it is still getting expansions and when I got in contact with Free League Publishing, I was happy to dive into the world of Mutant Year Zero and explore its universe. While the game offers a set number of playable characters, makes you face off other types of mutants and explore vast derelict areas, the tabletop RPG from which it is based allows you to do much more. Rather than deliver yet another all too common post-apocalyptic scenario with zombies and what not, the game added mutants as playable characters from the get-go. When I previewed the video game Mutant Year Zero: Road To Eden on PC, I was sold on its plot with its twist on the post-apocalypse trope.
