I don’t remember how I’ve heard of Metal Dead, why I got it or when, but I sure am happy I did. In this life of work and paying bills and running around worrying about stuff that will never happen, the crudely drawn point’n’click about two metal heads navigating zombie apocalypse by skewering and exploding the undead, marching through gore with some good choice words and an electric guitar is a soothing, bloody balm for a soul I never knew I needed. Your basic zombie survival kit includes: - Two characters that are as far from knowing how to survive on the “make it out alive” spectrum as possible. They usually have all the creative solutions. - One of these characters is just a head. I mean it in a physical sense. So, you know, less wandering more thinking. Or so you’d hope. - A supporting cast of characters that is somewhere between an aggregate of your typical zombie flicks tropes and a sudden injection of indie point’n’click silliness. - A sense of humor. Goofy and absurd, this tool is, arguably, more useful than a Swiss army knife. - Well-put together string of classic point’n’click puzzles. It involves some crazy stuff, but it all works together nicely, giant sharks included. - Adult cartoon visuals. It’s a thing. It’s somehow rudimentary and complex at the same time. Looks like an 8-year-old attempted it, but you know it took hours upon hours to create. What makes it “adult” is, of course, gore. Gore makes everything adult, wouldn’t you say? - Really solid soundtrack of the understated variety, playing up some tense moments. Just the sorta thing you’d need sticking questionable things in the zombie’s eye. - An appropriately epic conclusion, serious in its ridiculousness. Perfect for all ends-of-the-world saving scenarios. I feel like with this basic kit, you should be fully equipped to survive zombie apocalypse. It’s unfortunate that the authors who created it seem to not be in business of adventure-making anymore, but at least their legacy lives on. Comedy, gore and metal is a precious combo we need to preserve and keep in mind when (not if) the zombie apocalypse would come. And, hey, take your guitar with you, it might come surprisingly handy.

Muy divertido, me recuerda mucho a "Ben there, Dan that". Los gráficos son muy cutres, y algunos puzzles tienen una lógica un poco extraña (defecto común en las aventuras gráficas). El gameplay es lento, y los controles se podían haber integrado mejor. Pero tiene mucho sentido del humor, y el protagonista hace comentarios graciosos de casi cualquier cosa que se te ocurra. Además, al ser corto, los defectos del juego se ven reducido mucho. Muy recomendable.

Surprisingly fun game that manages to be something very original despite tons of homage to genre films and music.

Game is short, but very funny. Highly recommend. It's definitely worth the couple of dollars.

Charming, funny and exciting! The puzzles are easy to medium - enough to make you think but not so much as to ever get really stuck (I never needed to ask the 'hint system' character for help). Well worth a play if you want a few hours of Shaun Of The Dead/Ben There Dan That style fun.
