Dead Ahead: Zombie Warfare 12+

Actually really fun!

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!

Hello, Aaron! It's Dead Ahead Zombie Warfare team. Thank you so much for your detailed and honest review. It's heartwarming to read these kind words. We really appreciate your support.

Room for improvement and opportunity

I feel like the more we upgrade our bus the more slots we should have for our characters, we should have more details to their outfits and bus defenses. There’s should be different slots for pieces of clothing to benefit the character, like protection against bullets or melee damage. I feel like we should also be able to assign different units to poke their heads out and defend the bus if infected get too close. I also feel like we should have an endless mode that we can play to get more coins and get xp for our units. I also wanna mention how unfair the combat can seem sometimes, and I feel like we should be able to command a unit on which infected we want them to attack. You’ve got the same zombies coming out after I just cleared the field and I have an opening but they close it again because more infected show up. The witches do too much damage and I don’t understand why you put in the wave rush in the game, like why? My main concern is challenge one location 5. A bunch of witches come at me blind rushing my crew and destroy my bus within 2 seconds of playing. Worse thing is you’re telling me a punch of punk raiders in black can do more damage and aim better than a trained cop? That’s crazy. What I find unfair is when the mechanic is conveniently struck by lighting after he gets deployed. It’s extremely unfair

Excellent

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.
