To many bugs. The horde aspect of the game is severely broken. I have to run z's over spike traps 4x to kill 1 z. 1 z. Just one. They climb up, and somehow pop up on top of my roof without being able to actually get in, etc. It's like a bad mobile port. I wouldn't buy and wait till it's out of Early Access to take another look.

User Reviews
For my friend and I this game is both incredibly fun yet boring and frustrating at the same time. We have a lot of fun exploring and building but at any minor inconvenience we question why we spent money on it. Like many are saying, it needs more content and refinement before it can live up to its potential. Currently it feels like a $20 Roblox game.
Honestly I love this game I am impatiently waiting for the game to continue
To me, this is a fresh take on the Zombie survival game that forces you to keep moving. Not only are you responsible for your own survival but the survival of the Machine. This massive monster of a machine is yours to take care of to reach "the last bastion of humanity". Since its early access, I'd wager i spent about 10 hours to get through current quest line. Some games dont have 10 hours worth of content even when its a finished product so Id say the devs are on the right track for early access. My gripe with most Zombie Survival games is the lack of moving from place to place. Most games, you find a good spot, you hunker down, and then you only explore and collect the nearby area because moving any farther means you have to start collecting all over again, since most of the games have ton of items and limited inventory space. BUT WHAT IF YOUR BASE COULD MOVE? CRAFT? GET TO EXPLORE AND SEE NEW PLACES? That is Survival Machine. Can't wait to see what comes after the Alpine update!
fun with friends only
