Dead Effect 2: Space Zombies 17+

I love the game and have played it on and off for close to a year. The graphics and sounds are amazing for a mobile game and the side quests really keep you going even after the well constructed campy. The only complaint I have is that it’s way too time consuming to get all the boss kills required for weapons training. Needing 30-50 Boss kills is way too much for how long it takes to actually get to a boss. Even with maxed out weapons it takes a minimum of 3 minutes before you can get to a boss and kill it. I suggest either lowering the boss kill requirements or providing a faster way to get them. Another addition that I believe would make the game more enjoyable would be an endless survival mode that becomes progressively harder.

I really enjoyed the first Dead Effect and since I’d recently upgraded from an iPhone 6 to an XS, that meant I finally had enough storage space to install the game so I went ahead and did. I looked up some videos of people playing to learn a few tips and tricks and one thing I noticed from watching old gameplay was that you don’t earn nearly as many credits per mission anymore as you could before the game was deleted and this version took its place. You literally earn about 10% of what used to be possible. Plus the best weapons/armor cost crystals rather than credits but you won’t get enough of those unless you pay for them with real money.

I understand that the game is free and was made by a small group of developers so they need those micro transactions, but it feels like the game could be balanced a bit better for those of us who like to play to win, not pay. Mind you, I’m more than willing to pay real money but would prefer to do it because I want to, not because I have to. Anyway, it’s still a great game and I’d recommend it to anybody with the patience to grind their way through it.

I was an avid player of Dead Effect and Dead Effect 2 on IOS. , until I tried transferring them onto my two year old iPad Air using the latest IOS operating system. I lost all of my progress and all of my in game purchases when I loaded Dead Effect 2 onto my new device. You can’t play long with the miserly mission payouts compared to the absurd cost of upgrades , armor , implants and weapons , many requiring actual cash purchases . I change my review slightly because I found that there is a reward system for many of my achievements and accomplishments in the game. It would be nice if this was easier to access and made as common as visiting for upgrades , armor , and weapons . I can also see the list of achievements and previous progress I made through Game Center , I don’t understand why previous upgrades in all required areas can’t or won’t be restored , still disappointing .
