Survival takes skill. Whether you are playing solo or co-op, knowing your surroundings is key to making it out alive. (Reader beware! Survival is not guaranteed beyond this point.

Gameplay:

This game has a straightforward concept don’t get dead. There are two different modes to play, Holdout mode and Campaign mode. In Holdout mode, you can select single player or co-op and face endless waves of zeds in a desperate attempt to see how long you can last. A bonus in holdout mode is the ability to obtain new weapons and special power ups. As for campaign mode, you wake up in a lab, where you discover that you have been injured and have been placed in a virtual world while your body is being healed.

This virtual world is a basic training simulation to help keep your mind from becoming atrophied. What starts out as a simple simulation quickly spirals out of control. As you progress through the game, you slowly uncover the origins of the zeds. There is no shortage of weapons while you take on impossible foes.

Between using random zed limbs and finding explosives to shoot at, fighting never gets boring. Don’t take the abundance of weapons for granted. A weapon is only as good as the person wielding it; and if you are not careful, you will find yourself hopelessly surrounded.
