This game is a master piece for EA, why because there is so little genre like this one especially in isometric view i have been played all zombie genre like PZomboid, State of Decay 1 and 2, dead age, dead state, hard west, Crai mira, frozen state etc for now it's really playable but lack of content, i love crafting and build a base etc, i hope in next month or more the game more polished (just hoping more like State of Decay in isometric view) because for game play state of decay and project zomboid is the best gameplay i ever play in zombie genre , keep agood work Dev XD. donot let negative review let u down Dev keep polished ur game and ur have a great potential tobe AAA game. i know unity engine have limitation but keep optimation and keep add content like npc, lively town center or suburb etc it make the game more alive think like stalker world where there is bandit and zombie and survivor fight each other

I really hate how this game controls work. They are clunky and complicated. Instead of moving towards the cursor or Mouse pointer you have to be walking in the direction with your W.A.S.D. keys and pointed with the mouse in that direction otherwise the character doesn't move right. What a horrible design and seriously needs to be looked at for now I have completely lost interest in this game until it's fixed or there's an option to just move in the direction of the mouse I'm no longer supporting or playing this game.

I really enjoy this game, there are a few things that do get a little annoying though. If your chopping down a tree and your axe breaks then you go to change weapons it will not let you (me) and it will not let you (me) craft an axe. So I make sure that when I gather lumber I have an extra axe handy. Have not seen many posts from the dev so not sure about future plans or anything. Also it would be nice if instead of only finding one item when you search cars and barrels maybe have a few items that you can find. Like the tree stumps for example. You get 2 items..!!!! :) Love the game and really enjoy it...!! Thank you for the time and effort you have put in, keep it going, please...!!!

- The graphics are a bit blurry.
- Controls are not the best, but you learn to live with it.
- At the start you just wonder around figuring out what to do and how to set up camp.
- Managed to reach level 3, build 'some' stuff like a wood storage and woodworkbench, and for the other stuff you need a much higher level.
- A bandage heals you up for 5%.. found no way to recover my health (food/drinks dont restore 'health).
- Everytime you need 4 pieces of meat and 4 bottles of water to restore food/water needs.
- I don't know, the game just feels so shallow/cheap.
In the end i just got bored and could not be bothered to spend more time.
It has potential though!.. but for now it is still a "nah.."
Maybe i will try it in the future.

Combat feels bad and - disconnected.
You need to eat a lot (i starved, whereas i ate 2 cooked meat, 10 cans of different foodstuff, 16 blueberries, 4 red berries - in about 30 minutes playtime (about half a day ingame), but so far you only find cigarettes in cars, and food just lying about on the floor. well. if you can find it, because the perspective is quite.....bad for locating food, or any other small item on the floor. Building is gated behind your char level.

When I bought this game,it was under test. The official release turned out to be a shit.
Do not buy this shit. Years waiting wasted.

I fell for this game based on how it looked in the screenshots and gameplay videos. However, once I actually played it for myself I soon discovered how awful it is. To begin with, everything is timed with a timer running in the corner until the next wave of zombies arrives to destroy your base. You don't get to build your own base either. You just defend an existing base. The only objectives are to defend the base, kill zombies, and survive. However, everything is stacked against you so that you fail miserably. Hunger and thirst drop insanely fast with no easy way of addressing this issue. I could find no easy way to eat or drink anything, so I just watched my health plummet while invading zombies destroyed my base. You also cannot craft or build hardly anything without grinding for obscure resources such as ammo casings and gun powder to make ammo. By the way, no trainers work with this game as of 2023. Combat also feels floaty and weak and the camera rotates way too fast and jerky even on the lowest setting. There is also no controller support because your character will run backwards and sideways. There is also no option to start a new game after you have started. The only option in the main menu is to continue your current game. This is one of those games that you have to experience for yourself to see how bad it plays. However, I would stay away from this game based on all the negative reviews. There are much better isometric survival games out there such as How to Survive 2.

This game has potential and i would like to see where the Dev goes with it. Yes it is in early access but some things could be easilly taken care of. The area for pick up is way too small, sometimes you have to be in the perfect spot to pick up an item. Also its missing bandages (cloth makes the most basic bandage), or at least i haven't found any and none to craft. Third, when you go into a house thew roof "look through" opens up but you can't see through the trees, you have to adjust your camera angle. There was also some weird part, i was running on the road to the Harvesters when i heard glass breaking and i started bleeding???? Couldn't find a NPC for quest, "Harvesters" don't sell food or water? Only thing vehicles have is metal scrap? Just a few easilly changable minor things.

Half hearted game that is unfinished and has a major bug where every action you do is punished by getting damage...
Try to craft get damage
Try to run get damage
The developer seems to not Know about his game or does not care enough to patch and fix the issue i would not recommend this game in its current state.

Picked this up during the summer sale and while early access seemed promising. Unfortunately the large amount of issues that I experienced within a short amount of time were cause in my mind to request a refund. From the feature to report bugs being unusable to numerous issues with picking up or using items, I cannot recommend this game in its current state. Even if it is on sale. I will, however, continue to keep an eye on its progress and hope to be able to return with a much different review.
