For me, this was fun and challenging but too many annoying edge cases with sounds pulling zombies, random hordes, and other things that will turn a fun play through into wasted 1 to 4 hours as the fun quickly turned to annoyance.

It's made to be that way and I wouldn't recommend it for that reason because the challenge to reward balance isn't really there in my opinion and I didn't enjoy the campaign particularly.

That said, plenty of people enjoy it, and it doesn't crash or bug out in any particular way.

Great game. But a coop mode would be great!

It's like starcraft 2 zombie mod but an actual game

Stressful

Been playing it since before the campaign existed, love the game and keep coming back. I don't really care too much for the campaign but I wouldn't let that hang you up, the real game is in Survival. Set it to as hard as you can handle without getting too frustrated and the game will continue to challenge you.

its an okay game but the UI is horrid if you run a 2-3 monitor set up simply adjusting just the sound switches the monitor your on and also having to deal with a force restart when tweaking literally any of the settings is annoying as hell if its was major changes that makes sense but switching a windowed or adjusting the resolution really should never require a force restart also when the screen swap happens it bugs out if i use shift+win+left or right arrow key to get it back to the correct screen. all around its a very buggy mess when using the badly implemented UI

Very entertaining, a fantastic mix of city building and zombie survival and it doesn't pull any punches. It is super satisfying to win, especially for the first time, and its great being able to challenge yourself to your liking. I'm always a fan of the simple feature of being able to unlock content such as new maps to play on, by playing the game and beating challenges. Solid game 8.5/10

I really like this game and I'm irritated at the amount of other reviews that scare people (me) off with the 'it only takes 1 zombie to destroy hours of work'. While that can absolutely happen, it isn't always that black and white; the player has full control over whether that happens or not. I've had plenty of zombies get through my defenses and I've been able to save the city from complete destruction by pausing the game and reacting quickly to the issue and then plugging the hole so it doesn't happen again. So that whole argument is invalid, those players either didn't learn how to play the game or are pissed cause it all went to hell.

The campaign is also often trashed, I really don't know why, it's pretty good and it teaches you slowly elements of the game if your paying attention. It's very low on story but you get the general idea. Lots of people seem to hate the 'hero' missions; I love them, it is a change of pace but it also nets you valuable research and empire points which you'll need to tackle future missions.

I think the game is done quite well and its a really good looking game as well. This game rewards logical defense planning, small burst growth and situational awareness. The game feels like a logical puzzle game, how to grow settlements while mitigating the zombie threat. That doesn't mean there is one way to solve each mission though. I like it, it's kind of a RTS turtle type game where you want to expand your base while keeping on top of the defense of those expansions and the city overall.

Real glad I gave the game a chance and ignored a lot of the very specific nuanced negativity from many reviews; they are baseless in my experience. You will lose, but if your smart, you will learn and adapt. So far I have never failed for anything that wasn't ultimately my fault and that is the mark of a solid game.

FUN but is hard to play

Awesome
