For a mobile game and as a diehard Resident Evil fan, Survival Unit exceeded my expectations. The game is split into two modes of gameplay as you progress through the story (as far as I know of). One mode is more along the lines of our classic RE gameplay. Walk through rooms and hallways, find key items, shoot enemies (or run) and solve puzzles. The atmosphere is surprisingly immersive with the ambience and the sound of your footsteps as it echoes throughout the halls and corridors. There are also notes to pick up and read that add to the story, just like in any of our beloved RE main titles. Now the other portion of the game does feel more mobile-like. You place the characters you have accumulated in a given position, and watch as they mow down a wave of zombies automatically. You do get special abilities that can be used during this time like a gatling gun but other than that, it doesn’t feel as immersive as the first mode where you get to explore on your own.All in all I give it a solid 5 for exceeding my expectations as a mobile game, and nailing the classic Resident Evil atmosphere and immersion.

I know I may be a little biased when rating this game, but I do genuinely believe that Resident Evil Survival Unit is the next step forward for mobile gaming as a whole. I haven’t played it for too long, but I can already say that it does a great job porting existing resident evil mechanics into your pocket. It’s also not your standard simulation game that you see oh so frequently in the app story today. RESV thrives on its unique gameplay that you will find almost no where else. The game gives you an exiting tutorial that teaches you all the standard mechanics of a resident evil game. It may branch off from the main canon of the original games, but it does so in a way that feels fluid and as if it could have actually been the plot of the mainline titles. Previous fans of the series will have a great time seeing some of their favorite characters fight within exciting new combat, while newer fans will love the fun new story that provides a good introduction to what makes Resident Evil games so incredible.

Actually a very good survival game like the title says. The graphics are pretty good, the story good as well and the building and stuff is as well. I also really like how they pretty much have a lot of actual people from the games in this game. I think my only issue is like when there is a cut scene and people are talking it kinda goes by fast I wanna say like u got maybe 3 or 5 secs to read something that goes from one side of ur screen to another. If they can maybe make it slow I won’t see no issues in this game honestly. But love the game so glad I got. everyone who likes building and surviving games should definitely give this a try you would like it.

The biggest red flag for me that made me even not want to play the game in the first place is you could not reject or turn off them collecting your data. If you select that option to see what they collect there is a big red button that says do not sell my personal data. If you click that there is then a toggle you need to click. After exiting that menu I went back in and the toggle was on again after I turned it off. Companies need to start paying us if they want to sell our data. The games is just bad. I wanted to get the base stuff but the intro takes so long and is just bad and boring. I also was under the impression this was just a base building game with some fights but there is this whole bad exploration part of it. Having a zombie walk up to me where my gun is in their face and when I shoot I keep getting miss miss miss is not fun. I get it's a free to play but put the free to play aspect in the base building part. Deleted and won't touch it again.
