Absolutely one of the best story based survival games out there. It does tend to lag a bit in some areas but given that its still in Early Access I hope to see these issues fixed soon. If you did enjoy games like 'This War of Mine' you'll definitely enjoy this one to its fullest extent.

The people complaining about low weapon durability and item "scarcity" are the same people that will complain about Balatro or Slay the Spire having "too much RNG" - they simply do not play games like this the way the game wants you to play it. Fact is, every "problem" you'll read in 99% of these negative comments is quite literally user error. The game doesn't expect you to kill every zombie - it has designed levels in a way that expects you to take advantage of hiding spots, door pathing and dead ends to move around zombies quietly and manipulate their patrolling to be avoidable. Anyone complaining about them being "stronger than you" is objectively wrong - you can kill any zombie with your bare hands. That being said, you'd obviously prefer NOT to do this and if you get crowds on you, you're dead if you don't run; but remember - you are SMARTER than they are. You can intentionally kite them off ledges, lure them via sound in to areas you want to move them to, even break down barriers prematurely before exploring the full zone by utilizing sound to anger them in to breaking it for you. The levels are like puzzles, this is not Left 4 Dead. You aren't expected to be a zombie murder hobo. Resources are tight but as you find more survivors you can skillfully juggle resource expeditions with base tending - be smart and send your fighters and scouts out to clear and prep zones, send your bigger backpack guys to clean up afterwards. Many of these POIs are not one-trip spots, plan for multiple visits. Weapon durability is an early game issue - once you unlock higher tier weapon crafting, you will be able to craft weapons that can KO many many zombies in a single relatively cheap craft. The game is a very well designed balance of challenge and reward, just make sure you are maximizing your time efficiently and map out where you find survivors for future runs. As you get better and better at finding them quicker in subsequent runs (they are static in their POI locations) you will be covering more ground quicker and quicker and have a solid resource supply in no time. Stay safe out there!

Made my boy Leo strong. Leader of the group. Go Scavenge at fire station, get overwhelmed, running to roof top. No weapons left, only one solution... Hang off top of building and drop, pray for survival. RIP Leo my boy.

So glad to be one of the first few to review this game. Maybe people will actually read mine this time! Here’s Hoping! So yeah this game is pretty great. Have you ever played “This War of Mine”? If so then you’ll feel right at home as everything here is so eerily similar to that other game that you’ll just fit right in. But don’t worry, even if you haven’t the gameplay is fairly straightforward and simple but let me warn you, this is a pretty challenging game where the focus is on pure survival. Steal from others if you have to, kill anyone who poses a threat but at the same time the game isn’t about combat, it’s about stealth and patience. It’s got great everything pretty much. Great graphics, great sound, great gameplay, replayability, length of play, great price tag. It IS lacking in a few areas like its crappy short and pointless tutorial which barely teaches you anything as well as a slew of glitches and bugs. But for only 25 dollars? I think it’s a pretty safe investment for a game that could end up being pretty damn awesome in the future. It’s already really good and I can’t wait to see what becomes of it later. So I obviously recommend at least checking it out, if you're worried about the price tag then don’t be. When you play, you can play for just an hour and you’ll figure out if you like it or not and still be within the refund window. So why not just give it a try? It’s really good. But if that’s not enough for you then I encourage you to check out the review on my YouTube Channel (link below) where I go into depth as well as show some actual gameplay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3VO4cDkOGU But otherwise, thanks so much for reading and I hope I managed to help some of you out there spend your money wisely.

Solid game so far. Its pretty challenging, I do not like the weapon durability system though. You stealth kill 3 zombies and a combat knife breaks.
