Ahead of this weekend's March for Our Lives, @waypoint is spending the week interrogating the relationship between guns and games across a half dozen or so articles. I explain why, and dig into my own feelings on the matter, here: waypoint.vice.com/en_us/arti…

When all else has failed and the super viruses of the future have conquered humanity, we'll likely have nothing but zombie games to play. Zombie Fluxx is a simple card game with ever-changing rules set in the middle of a zombie uprising. Defeat the zombies and save your friends!
