Amazing game with only one suggestion.

Overall, dead ahead zombie warfare provides users with a challenge to defeat the zombie plague. The game is very detailed and provides the player with many different choices. These choices can be units, the items you equip them with, main campaign, PVP, weekly events, and also annual events. Each of these parts make the game extremely fun and entertaining. However, there is one issue I have faced while playing this game. In order to pay for and upgrade units, you require an absurd amount of coins and power points, making the game unnecessarily grindy in nature. I admit that the devs have tried to fix this problem by lowering prices of unit upgrades and doubling supply runs rewards on weekends, but the situation still remains. I understand there is an easy way to farm coins by using a unit called Austin, but he is exclusive and costs a fair amount of green cash (another in game currency, NOT USD). This, once again, only resolves part of the issue. Even though coins can be farmed, the other necessary resource, power points, have yet to be more easily obtained. I would like to end this review on a good note. Dead Ahead Zombie Warfare is an amazing strategy game that presents its players with a fun challenge. While there are still some flaws, nobody can expect a game to be perfect. The devs are constantly adding more to the game and rebalancing it as well. I’m sure the grindy nature of the game will be addressed, I just hope it will be in the near future.

Yes I’m a real person this is not a fake review… see 1,2,3 monkey in a Christmas tree?? Idky but that should prove I’m real lol… anyways… At first glance it’s kinda basic… it’s very grindy too so if you don’t like grinding and slowly leveling units up and their gear this game may not be for you. If however you do like that sort of game it’s got the cool retro graphics… it’s got tons of small things that make it cool like set bonuses on gear and class bonuses for multiple various units that have the same class. There’s a little pvp and the strategy implementation with different teams and abilities make this game all around fun. Again if that’s your kind of game. I sit in my garage in my free time playing this game chillin. I don’t mind the slow pace and the grinding so it’s chill. Oh yea it’s gonna heavily push ads on you, but again if ur already down with grinding and slow pace and chilling then you’ll actually grow to appreciate the ads because watching them gives you way more extra in game currency then you’d get without it. So watch out for the ad bonuses because they help you maintain a somewhat decent pace as far as upgrading gear and leveling your squad up. I give it 5 stars because it is a 5 star game in my book as far as what I wanted to play and mostly because I’m not trying to just be a critic… I have my issues and even within my issues it’s still a great game! No need to nit pick! Thanks for reading!

Great gameplay. Great atmosphere. Great sound. Great art style. (I absolutely love how the wind rustles through the hair and the clothes of the units). The bus, the landscapes and the buildings are all wonderfully dilapidated and run-down. The music is both melancholy and haunting, and a huge contributor to the game's amazing atmosphere. It's is a little on the difficult side, but for some this is part of what makes it such an strong title. I wish there were a bit more 'redneck, trailer folk, white trash' type units. These units are, dare I say, endearing? In my opinion some of the units, like Carlos and the swat team, don't really fit into the ethos they have created. But this comes down to personal presence and is a minor gripe - because overall, the game is excellent. It is both unique and familiar, cohesive and well crafted - and yet wonderfully subversive. The gameplay is quick and fun. The wide range of units and enemies does help with the occasional threat of repetition. The ability to swap parts from unit to unit would be a great addition. Again, this is a personal and minor gripe. Overall this little game is a well polished 'experience' that feels much larger than its parts - a true gem in a sea of mediocre titles that flood our game stores everyday. I hope this company sticks around and is either working on a successor, or perhaps a new IP, or both. Don't miss this gem.

Great game but needs balance

ThisGame has good gameplay, great artwork and animation. It requires different strategies to complete the various missions. You get to use/purchase lots of interesting units to form your team. You also end up fighting all kinds of crazy zombies and zombie like creatures that get weirder and more alien as the game progresses. I think one of the downsides of the game is that each time you upgrade a unit, it is a little underwhelming. The unit only get a slight increase in health and damage. Another downside is the game begins to really grind partway through location six. There are three types of currency bucks, gold and purple power points.I’ve listed them in rarity or difficulty to obtain. As the game progresses you end up with a massive surplus of purple power points, then it’s somewhat hard to accumulate gold and then extremely hard to accumulate bucks. Even if you watch an ad after every mission and get the bonus gold the game is still massively paid to play once you get into location seven. You get a reward for clearing all the missions in a location and for leveling up your blue stars, but as the game progresses the rewards don’t really get much better. At the beginning of the game I recommend leveling up your redneck and mechanic and getting Policeman Diaz as soon as possible. Convert the redneck to a mechanic for 20 bucks and then the redneck in the mechanic can heal the bus 5% each time they enter the battlefield. In my opinion, the grenadier is better than the construction worker and a lumberjack as melee unit.
