How it feels

You scavenge and craft in a lonely, decaying world where survival means eating the zombies you kill, creating a grim and desolate atmosphere.

What players say

Players are nearly unanimous that Herd is Coming is painfully slow, with sluggish movement, looting, and animations that make even zombies seem fast. Some appreciate the crafting and survival loop, but even fans warn about the grind and a frustrating upgrade system where expensive chemicals fail.
