About This Game


THE STORY
Zombie apocalypse has come to an end! Anti zombie virus serum has been created long ago and little needs to be done - to clear the world of zombies! But it’s easier said than done, the dead walkers will not perish themselves, and the virus inside their bodies is capable of breeding new mutants. Thus, the confederation formed of what’s left of the human race has issued a new order to let anyone take possession of any estate property flooded with walking creatures in case if they’re all eliminated by the claimant.

Needless to say, that there are people who want to - more than enough?

Thus protagonist aimed my feet for one of the three-storey mansions with an ocean view to seize it! I guess it’s crowded not only with bloodthirsty zombie hordes, but other “cleaners” like main character, who do not wish to share their future possession with anyone else.

ABOUT THE GAME
     “Zombies in the dark” is a horror top-down shooter in which you play for the 27-year-old protagonist named Alan Rogers.

[b]2.5/10[/b] From time to time, I like to take a chance on a super-cheap indie title that I find on Steam. I generally like top-down shooters and spooky games, so Zombies in the Dark fit the bill. Although I saw a few negative reviews, these were from when the game was in early access. I had hoped that the most prominent issues were fixed by the time the 1.0 release rolled around. Unfortunately, I was incorrect. There are a lot of issues here that make Zombies in the Dark unpleasant to play: [list] [*]The gun that you are holding changes from floor to floor without you being notified. The game doesn't go into where you found these extra firearms, and it makes the first encounter on each floor a little jarring. Perhaps a "safe room" could be added on each floor of the mansion, holding the new weapon? In addition, the sound effect for your pistol outside of the mansion sounds like you're shooting a gun with no bullets in it. [*]The enemies have no real attack animations - they just s...

I bought this game when it was on sale, It was interesting to play and it does remind me of the old resident evil games with the fixed point of view. I know its in early access, I'm hoping for more to be added. The controls are very sensitive and it makes it a little hard to play. Its best to use the keyboard and mouse instead of the controller. I got further with the PC controls than I did with the console controls. I like the old style of the game, so I'm not complaining.
