If you’ve read our Dead of Winter review, then you’ll know that we are huge fans of this series. Possibly the coolest thing about Dead of Winter: The Long Night (besides everything mentioned above) is that this is much more than just a Dead of Winter expansion; it can also be played as a standalone game! While we will definitely be using it alongside the Dead of Winter base game, it is great to know that there is so much in the box that it could be used on its own.
You can preorder Dead of Winter: The Long Night at Cool Stuff Inc., and it will be available to the public this summer. For a bit more info on the game, check out the official page.
