How it feels

Managing scarce resources and permanent death while making story-altering choices under constant threat of zombie hordes feels tense and strategic.

What players say

Players say the turn-based combat is repetitive and takes up most of the game, with slow pacing and a tight time limit on quests. The camp management and customization are highlights, but performance is rough and the story is simple. Many recommend waiting for a sale.
