Other then it needs a fare number up updates to polish it. It COULD have been a pritty good game. But they stoped working on it fair number of years ago.

I started this game with high hopes of an interesting take on a genre and, at the beginning it was fun. The game was fun for the first few hours and then became repeat after repeat of grindings items or finding for the hotel. The nail in the coffin with this one was that it seems simply abandoned, without updates in years, so has reach the point in which i have no faith it will ever be finished.

Okay, I will admit that I wanted to like this game. And honestly, The core of the game was fun. Its just that it was extremely broken. The Devs need to go back and fix the Frame Rate and the Crashes. And honestly, they need to make the game less confusing. The game may say you need to go to this location, but the game is so spread out there is no knowing where that location is. I finally had to request a refund when I couldn't figure out where the hotel was on my own. I stumbled into quest blind, not completely knowing why I was there. The controls for driving aren't laid out, and when I say that, I don't mean 'oh I don't know how to turn left and right' because that wasn't an issue. The issue was I couldn't get out of my vehicle on my own without a random quest being there. Since I'm sure there would be a point where there are no location quest but you have to get food for the hotel, that is a serious issue. The Frame Rate wasn't imposible, I'll say that. But it was slow enough that if I wasn't on my tactical game, zombies would easily come and munch me like a bag of chips. There are many players who would have flipped out faster and gotten themselves killed with that frame rate, So that despreately needs to be fixed. As for crashes, I only dealt with one before I requested a refund. I was in the middle of a hoard of monsters (not completely sure they were zombies) and I needed to change off my shotgun because I had like 3-4 shots left in it. So I press the convient O button to swap to my chainsaw. The game couldn't have crashed faster. I've read below that there were many more crashes in the game so I didn't put up with it. Alright, so why the heck did I buy a game with nearly no positive reviews to it? I really wanted to like this game. I am obsessed with apocalyptic and survival games, as any of my friends they'll tell you the same. So when I saw this, I got excited. I really like the mechanic where you constantly have to forge for food. I love how you craft weapons, ammo, hotel supplies, and food. I think that is amazing and the things on those list aren't really easy to get. Very fun for hardcore survivalist like me. I really like how in the beginning the devs give you plenty of ammo to help you get the learning curve. You essentially have no fear of running out of ammo in the beginning, with over 70-100 shots of shotgun ammo, around 200-250 pistol ammo, and 250 chainsaw fuel (I sadly never got to try out the chainsaw as mentioned above when I attempted) the weapons you start with are not top notch. It is a rusty pistol and shotgun. Still they are extremely helpful in the beginning when you are clearing out zombies from the hotel and maybe a couple missions before you actually have to start crafting ammo. The hotel was pretty nice, for an apocalypse hotel. There were so many issues in the hotel to fix that I got excited, thinking of the time I could have soon fixing up the hotel into a 5 star joint. Since many of you won't play this, I'll say this, Bruno is the most helpful companion in the game, my opinion. He'll charge zombies, bitting them to death taking almost no damage whatsoever. Very useful with the low frame rate, he'll keep you from being instantly swarmed when you load up the map. I guess in conclusion, This game would have been amazing. I'm not biased against it. But these errors were right at the start of the game. I had hardly finished my first mission when all this sadly came to a head. I wanted to love this game, But unless the Devs fix these bugs and add in location markers to help players get to places, This game will never gain positive ratings. One last thing before I go, Only play one day and night to see how it goes for you. The Devs do not give you a time skip button, and at one point try to 'recommend' you to wait it out until morning. Do Not Do This. There is no time skip button, so you are forced to sit there waiting for day to come slowly, which will Wear Down your steam time until the point where Steam will look at your time card when you go to request a refund for it, and they will think you a liar and deny you. Don't get caught in it. Keep to one day and one night to see if you actually like the game.

Simple as it is: the idea is great. Thats all that is positve about it. You can't play this game because it is broken and the dev does not care. It crashes nearly all few minutes or doesn't even start for some people. Please consider following my curator page for more reviews. Thank you! https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40593904/

I'm extremely disappointed in this game. Oh, it's fun. When it works. But it often crashes espiceally since the last update and the developer has no responded to anyones complaints. I've past the point where I personally could get my money back a long time ago. So warning about this before anyone else wastes their money.

Just don't. The game is unplayable--it constantly crashes with some weird error and just like other games from this devloper, they leave comments about this fatel bug unanswered and never fix them.

There's a random crash that has a chance of ocurring whenever a mandatory NPC you get at the start of the game makes any kill. Given the game limits saving, this makes it unplayable and the developers have moved onto other projects and showed no interest in fixing this in over a year.

I really wish I could recommend this game. The premise is fantasticly fun and what little I got to play was great. But constant crashing and less than 10 frame per second playspeed just made it intolerable.

Just bought from sale has some bugs that have been reported for months that are not being addressed. The bug would not let me play even one random mission without crashing. Unless they patch I dont recomend a purchase.

Not worth it. Neat game, interesting concept, fun to play, but game crashes due to persistant error about every 10-20 minutes. This, combined with the fact that you can't save except at the end of missions or when back at the hotel, makes it impossibly frustrating to play. Devs no longer supporting the game. Waste of money.
