    I love the game. Fallout style gameplay where you can take on multiple missions in an open world map. Zombies, nice scenary and good dialogs.

    The only thing that completely ruined the game was that you CANNOT save the game manually. You must rely on the games autsave feature. So when you complete a big mission you cant just save and turn it off. you have to wait for the game to decide to save. This doesn't always work and sometimes tells you its saved when it hasn't.

    I lost around 5 hours of gameplay due to this bug so I sent it back. If the game wasnt lacking a save feature it would be awesome.

    For me this game was very fun to play but only in solo. My reason for this is that when playing co-op with others they're not on the same level as you which makes the loot harder to grab. PROS -Each of the four characters was unique in a way. Each character specialized in a certain class like ranged weapons or blunt weapon -graphics were beautiful for a zombie game, there were a few bugs, yes, but everyone seems to forget that all games have bugs. Lower your standards!!! -the scenery an maps that you're allowed to explore are endless and each map is well designed to grab you're attention CONS Like many games of it's kind, the potential was wasted. -voice acting could've been better -it did become repetitive -side quests make up the game All in all this game gets 4 stars

    Graphics arent the best,story was promising, but its very repetative,and quite frankly,becomes boring very fast. I gave it a good couple of hours before turning off and sending back.

  • Great zombie game

    good game, but the engine is a bit choppy. if you like having a massive choice of weapons and hordes upon hordes of zombies then this is the game for you.

    Its one of them games in which you enjoy at the start... but you can't wait for it to finish. It was very long and quite buggy.
