Dead Grid Reviews

Good timer waster game, get it.

Fun and rewarding. Just needs more areas :)

I was not sure what exactly I was getting into when I purchased and installed Dead Grid but I am certainly glad I did. A card game with fun animations of zombie-splatting combat with tons of items to collect, upgrade and a whole crew of Mercs to recruit, some of them are even unalive. Levelling up your bunch of Mercs is fun and there are skill-trees to invest points in to improve your combat capabilities and passive skills. You usually have a mission somewhere on the map that roughly matches the power of your squad so you can pick and choose the fights you feel you can manage. Or throw yourself at a tough objective for the sheer hell of it if you wish. I did not expect to get around 40 hours of gameplay out of this title but here we are. My squad is maxed out, I have over 20 unique weapons and tons of items to play around with. You slot these items onto your Mercs before battle and can use them as cards in-play. The art style is cool and functional, everything looks like it should and it was lovely to see the old SA80 (L85) as an equippable Assault Rifle,. Oh the memories of being soaking wet, crawling in mud, starving hungry and icy cold but all the while lugging that thing along....sigh...you only remember the good times! Anyways, enough of my rambling, grab yourself a copy of the game, learn the mechanics of how to play and splat those Zeds good! It's an amazing price for what it is and the Dev seems to have a real joy in his work. He comes across as super keen to play the game as much as developing it. I can imagine him sat at the dinner table with his missus and positioning the sausages on his plate as he tells his wife about his latest mission! The sausages are now assaulting the mashed spud fortress defended by some astutely placed broccoli....All the while the long-suffering missus is giving him the eye-over-the-top-of-the-specs look...But I for one am glad that the game was developed by such an enthusiastic and keen person. I really look forward to seeing what is further ahead down the line for Dead Grid. Update 7 promises flamethrowers, what's not to like about flamethrowers??!!

Good game. Well balanced. Few bugs, good flow.

For the price, this game rocks. Highly recommend it, and it is actively being updated.

Absolutely loving this game right now, love the class concepts, the perk system, the combat itself feels rewarding and isnt boring like these types of games can be, its a fresh take on zombie survival while not being overbearing and confusing. Two cons for this game id have would be 1. The grind can be a bit unsatiable (it fells like youre stuck playing in 2-3 areas for too long) id like to see that changed up a bit, not so much loot needed to grab, or changing the way its earned 2. Quests are far too repetive, its simply re-visit the same locations over and over again (could make new timed ones, or themed ones, could make a few new mission 'types' like S&R, or PtB to introduce more variety. Outside of those two complaints i believe the team is on a very well set track for making this a very fun and enjoyable game for many. 8)

Thought I'd sit down and play for 30 minutes, maybe an hour, then get back to my regular scheduled gaming session. Instead I spent 5 hours playing. Easy to get right into, without a lot of tedium. Highly recommend, especially for those that love to rack up achievements quickly!
