Drop Bears

Drop Bears: Survival Series, Chapter 1 is a co-operative horror survival board game from Platypus Industries, set in the Australian bush at night. One to four players, with a dedicated solo mode, take the roles of inexperienced campers who must last until dawn while koala-like Drop Bears fall on them from the gum trees.

You can't fight the Drop Bears, so the campers need to scout and run, rest and heal, and search for gear. They also have to keep their heart rate in check. Each time a camper is eaten, that player picks another one, but every death brings the Drop Bears closer to winning.

• Co-operative play for 1–4 players, with a solo mode
• Detailed Drop Bear miniatures
• Modular hex map tiles
• Camper, gear and event cards, dice and tokens
• Ages 16+, about 45–60 minutes
