Dec. 2024

this game actually is very playable and the animations of the heads and limbs exploding is really good to pull off, well worth a go if you're bored but don't expect anything amazing 8/10

Dec. 2024

(Pre review note - make sure to turn off V-sync for this game! I was suffering bad input lag/floaty aiming at first but turning v-sync off fixed the issue) A straightforward & fun scifi/horror fps - imagine Doom 3 combined with COD Zombies mode and that's basically Dead Effect. The campaign is just the right length to not outstay its welcome, and for those who buy games with the "more is more" philosophy, there are a bunch of challenge modes and higher difficulties you can grind through after, saving up resources to unlock and upgrade a whole bunch of extra weapons. I didn't even unlock half the game's guns, so one criticism I have is that unlock progression should've been a bit quicker, as only people who want to spend a bunch of extra time playing challenges/higher difficulties will actually be able to try all the weapons.

Dec. 2024

Pros It has amazing graphics, amazing atmosphere and an amazing gameplay. You will have alot of fun slaying zombies in it. cons very short and bad voice acting (especially the female character) this game lacks content alot. Apart from the main story there is survival (which is too short) and bio hazard mode with only a few maps. The android/ios version had more maps and some side missions as well. Also the number of zombies in bio hazard mode is way less compared to android/ios version. This game is worth it only on sale. It is a must play if you do not care much about story and only want to kill some zombies.

June 2024

Not a bad little game. Picked it up for .99 cents and I'll say that it is generously priced at 5 bucks. Either way, I'll credit the devs for pushing out something that has more features than the modern game today, I'll be sure to pick up Dead Effect 2 once I'm done with this one.

Feb. 2024

I was very pleasantly surprised at how good this game is. But "Dead Effect" is a really cool zombie shooter with some really nice ideas, like the upgrade system. Of course, there are also a few not-so-great things, like the mini-game to open certain doors, but that doesn't reduce the fun of the game much, but it can be a bit annoying. "Dead Effect" is a bit like Doom's little brother and really fun. I highly recommend it.
