Excellent action shooter with nice graphics, cool weapons and lots of opportunities to lay waste to hordes of zombies.

Oct. 2024

i really don't care for top down games but i love Zombie games so i decided to give the game a try and i wasn't disappointed. My only peeve was that for such a cool game it was just way too short. A few more levels with bosses would have been nice.

I got this game for $1. It's pretty fun for a cheap game. Kill zombies, and other creatures. Stay alive. Fun!

I got the game on sale and didn't play it until I beat other games I had in my Steam collection. I did have fun playing the game and did beat it so here's my review of this game. The game is pretty much a guy who gets into a zombie apocalypse and has to fight zombies, monsters, and robots to reach the end to find the source of the zombie apocalypse. The game gets you guns like the pistol, shotgun, rifle, grenade launcher, rocket launcher, laser rifle, and flamethrower from what I remember. You fight enemies like zombies ranging from small to big, giant frogs, giant enemies that are the same ones you see but are larger, robots, and enemies that shoot flames at you. There are levels where you can do side tasks that can get you collectibles which I got on my first playthrough because I used a guide to get the Golden Gun and flak jacket collectibles. You can get money to use to upgrade your weapons which helped me out a lot in the game. When you die you start from the last place the game saved. Some bosses can be easy or hard depending on how you go against them. For bosses in the game, I never killed them because I played a lot of games so I have experience. You can shoot explosives that can damage enemies. When I'm shooting my explosives the explosive weapons I use never damage me so It helps me out sometimes but when the weapon is in a cooldown before I can fire it again I die so I have to start at that part again from the last save point. There are some missions where you go into a turret section where you defend police officers defending themselves from the zombies and you get rewarded with money. For money, it goes from bronze to gold. Bronze is 5, Silver is 20, and Gold is 50. You can pick up ammo from looking around the area around you so there's that. There is survival mode but I never did it because it's a way to show people how good you are on the leaderboard. The gameplay for this game reminds me of one of those flash games on the internet where you play in a top-down view fighting and surviving against zombies. After beating the game I recommend people to try this game out when it's on sale. For me, I got this game when it was on sale for under 2 euro so it's worth getting when you have no other game to try out. You can beat this game in under 4 hours so it's a game worth getting since it is an indie game. I give this game a 7 out of 10. Thanks for reading my review I hope it makes you think twice about getting this game. Have a good day.

It's a fun little top down zombie game, you've probably played similar games before but if not this is a really good one. It's got a story that takes a couple of hours to finish and a fun weapon upgrade system as you progress. I picked this up in a huge bundle and this is the first game in the pack i've played and I'm pleasantly surprised so far.
