I want to like this game so much. But it's a crapshoot. It is pretty detailed in that you make camp, then proceed to fortify and defend while maintaining survival skills and needs such as food shelter and defense. However every mission you go on has a pass/fail percentage. While these pass/fail percentages are fine, what you find and what your reward is is not. I had a hard time picking up the resources I needed to make my camp self sustained. It was a 60/40 grindfest/fun. The potential for this game is through the roof, I hope they work out the kinks to make this the game it could be. Positives: Pretty detailed and varied abilities, such as farm, kennel, walls, sandbag crafting etc. Base building is fun, altho a grindfest for materials Randomness to it, with bad weather, zombie raids, and more Negatives: The locations you discover need to have details about whats there, ie wood, metal, etc. I mean you scouted it, you should know Grinding feels a bit tense at times The potential ...

*My review is dated and as of yet I have not put the time into making a new review of the game - my advice is read other reviews.* The game is updated regularly and so far I am happy with my purchase! A VERY VERY early access game. it has potential but right now its unpolished and needs alot of work. I will update my review as I play it more. right now character creation is very basic with only one type of person to make but multiple outfits to pick from. the male and female both Look the same. the survivor management in the camp section seems to be ok the actual controlling of the character is strange to me but fairly easy to pick up. I have noticed multiple light glitchs and bugs in the game but nothing too game breaking. the main character for some reason seems small compared to the surroundings - IE doors and things. It is not all bad though, the atmosphere of the game around the city feels right and really helps to immerse you into the game - the sounds and such add to this C...

newest Update. Game continues to evolve gettting better with time still fun to play even though i havent gotten to it alot the last month Update, they continue to Update on an almost half weeekly basis, feedback is implementent and you actually see your suggestions and feedback in the changelogs. Long time since i saw something like that. Hmm well..., this game is fun. Do you know the Browser Game "the Last Stand" a flash game. It's like this only nicer Graphics and a bit more complex. The scaveging part is fun as that is the FPS part, but you also get a simulation were you build your base, look for food , harvest amterials. And the More survivors you find in the FPS part the bigger your camp gets. Downside those useless bags of meat also want food. So send them on the hunting missions or scouting. My only downside cureetly is I have a TOP end machine , and this game draws on your CPU like crazy my Inter5 6600 goes into overdrive and the fans of my R9 390 Blow like a Nuclear pow...

At present this game is at its very bare bones of EA, I would consider waiting to buy this game until a lot more is added, the combat in this game is weak to say the least and there is a severe lack of resourses which are needed to build your camp which is what you need to go further in the game, i reached well over a month of in game days to acheive nothing. Pros Regular updates Good FPS Very promising Cons Controls are terrible Dated graphics (this could be overlooked if the game had alot more to do) Lack of usefull resourses (you go to cities junk yards etc and your lucky to get a scrap of wood I mean come on just from a scrap car you could take alsorts) Boring Repetative Not much of a tutorial Combat is poor especially as if when youi first start out you have no weapon the only thing you can do is kick which has simply no effect on the zombies Lack of player customizeation To end I would not advise buying this game at all in its current stage and I for one will not play this g...

I opted to give a review after 10+hrs of play time. I would recommend not being fooled by review with less than 0.4 hrs of gameplay since those types of individuals imo are addicted to the refund mechanism of Steam only and troll reviews. I am amazed on how nice this game is in its state, I am a fanatic of survival games and found this title buried within Steam sale. Not only you venture in an open world looking for loot while killing zombies you actually need to take care of your camp and survivors you find along the way. Among the numerous guns, sub machine guns you find you also have to fight bandits to gain control of valuable resources. This title is keeping me on my toes at all time and this is what I want in a survival game. become the leader of a group and maintain morale and reputation through the journey. Its a nice game for sure, I hope the devs keep updating and introducing new sites so we can explore further but also keeping in mind game content and not derive from the...

Hands down this is the best zombie game I've played, if not the best game on steam - I'm completely addicted. Its designation as Early Access is misleading, the current version feels more like a highly polished game and is already in class of its own. It is teeming with things to collect, places to explore and endless hours of entertainment. I've spent over a 100 hours already and I still feel like I've only scratched the surface. I can't wait to see what they do next - you won't regret this purchase. Pros: Perfect combination of fps and base management. Huge number of weapons, craftable items and upgrades. Highly active and dedicated developers. You'd expect to pay $60 for content like this, the price is a steal. Cons: Navigation difficult at first. Finding items at first is frustrating. Once you figure out where to look and where not to look, the game becomes much more manageable. Combat system confusing at first if you don't read the guides. The zombies aren't so OP or nume...

For an Early Access game I'd say CM Softworks nailed it! This game has features that most games don't implement until the Beta stage. They may be small features, but they're still there! This game has provided me with 10 hours of suspense, and zombie slaying fun! If you like games where you get to kill zombies, earn/spend skill points (on three attributes at the moment) and manage your own survival shelter then this game is perfect for you. Not many zombie games give you the ability to loot cities in real time, and manage a camp where you can build Farms to have a food supply, and a Radio Tower so you can communicate with other known camps! There are many more things to create that help your camp grow and survive. You can even simulate the ability to search for other areas to loot, and you can choose to loot them in real time or simulate the loot phase. This game has you make some serious decisions too. An example: "There is a horde of zombies spotted near your camp. This will conclud...

At first, I purchased this game as a joke, I came in expecting trash. So perhaps I just enjoyed this game by comparison. But fuck it, this is actually a decent game, with a lot of potential. On to the actual review. I'll to the typical thing and just start with pros and cons. Pros, +Fun concept +Somewhat interesting loot system +Decently done survival gameplay +Neat crafting system Cons, -Really poor optimization -Graphics mostly consist of pre made assets -Pretty clunky controls In general it's an alright game with a shit ton of potential. I recommend you support the dev and see what they do with future updates. 6.9/10

I just bought this game along with 4 others, had $50 to blow so picked up a few low priced ones that looked good. I seen the reviews and check out the game, and it seemed like something I could play here or there. Now that I have actually played it, I can say I really enjoy it and it has surpassed my expectations. This game is like a mix of This War of Mine (camp management), A 3D Project Zomboid, DayZ and a little something of it's own that pulls it all together. Now I won't say this game is for everyone, yet if you like the game I mentioned above, and are tired of the endless killing other zombie games eventually end up at. This is a game I would recommend. 10/10 would randomly buy again. worth the price, would suggest grabbing now while it's cheap.
