Cost too much for too little content. It should be a 2 or 3 dollar game at this point. Especially compared to competitors.

I actually thought this game would suck with its N64 looking graphics, but this is one of my favorite HTC Vive games. It is just very fun to play. I'm sick of VR games being soo complicated to figure out to play lately. Tis is a get up, grab and go kick ass game. Very good music that amps to blow zombies assess to pieces. I have played over and over again, can't say that for all the other 20+ dollar games I bought for VR. Now with the recent udate this game is like 2x b etter graphics, fun, and animation and immersion. Might be the best Vive game I own. And i own 52 and all the expensive ones.

Update 2 Review:
Updated gameplay video as of 8/23/16. The developer is making improvements to the game and we've seen 2 major gameplay updates so far. There are still some key features that are missing from the game and some balance issues that prevent me from recomending the game.
If there was some kind of checkpoint system and you didn't have to suffer through the first 3 painfully slow waves everytime you wanted to play, That would probably be enough to change my recomendation. I do still think it's a bit more expensive than it should be though.

I have all the Zombie games from the awful "Into the Dead" to Brookhaven and this is by far, my favorite. Ok - not a lot of story here but if you like standing your ground against hordes of zombies, this is awesome. Graphics are solid, decent assortment of weapons, and the game is tough.

The graphics are nice but the zombies are a little stiff and there is some clipping when they turn. There's also something wrong with the pace of this game. It's either really slow (i.e. nothing happening) or the zombies / creatures come at you too quickly, which makes it difficult to shoot ten of them while trying to reload. It would be much better if ammo, grenades, etc appear as "prizes" when you shoot zombies (like HordeZ) rather than in a corner, etc. Sometimes I don't even see the ammo box until just before it disappears. TBH, I got bored after two levels because the action was uneven and I was getting tired of trying to kill some flying ghost shooting green globs at me. I'll wait to play again until after I see some development progress. I recommend this game because it's better than several other similar games I've played, but HordeZ is still MUCH better.

The game even in the early access state lookes good, performes well and has a simple and working gameplay.
THink of Left4Dead as a stationary shooter in an arcade. It is nothing that you would play for hours without break, but with VR I notice I hardly ever play longer then 45 min in one session anyway.
The weapon audio could be improved, sounds a bit tame compared to the zombies.
This is one of the VR titles I will come back to frequently for a quick game.
It is simply fun.

I love this game!
It is fairly short (25 minutes total play) but OK for an early release. I can't wait to get more content.
For an early release though, this game is surprisingly fun and genuinely scary! That little girl scout zombie girl FREAKED ME OUT!!!

I’m impressed. As an early release game this zombie shooter really does shine as a fun and scary experience. In fact, this could be one of the best if the dev keeps at it. Brookhaven and Hordz has a real contender with this one.
My wish list
1. I would really like the fog from the nintendo 64 days washing out the beautiful city streets to go away or at least give us a setting for those of us with better graphics cards to do so
2. Head shots blow off the head
3. Arm shots will take off an arm
4. Leg shots will make the sucker go down to your slow crawling animation
5. Lots of ammo and more frenzy experiences
6. More clowns
7. Melee defense weapons of some kind
8. Zombies busting out of the bulding doors
9. More polish and content
If somehow all of this ended up in your game I think Armed Against the Undead would be top zomdog

Day 1 review : Instantly earned a place in my favorites! Read other reviews of it being kinda scary. Ha I thought... I had 2 big guys barreling down on me and both guns were empty. As I was stuck reloading, for the 1rst time I backed into my TV and entertainment stand... Everything survived, a few scrapes but I did Survive my 1rst play through! Couldn't believe it got that reaction out of me. Definitely one of the better Zombie titles I have had to the pleasure to play!
