Steam reviews

What players say

Mostly positive free zombie co-op shooter; players like the fun with friends and procedural maps, but criticise graphics, thin content and polish.

Many players enjoy the fast, chaotic co-op rounds: objective-based missions on procedurally rebuilt maps, five classes with clear roles, bot teammates that shoot accurately, and gunplay that feels meaty. Some compare it to Left 4 Dead and say it offers similar fun for nothing. Many complaints concern visuals, with models, lighting and textures looking dated or janky, and some reviewers say the first game looked better. Others point to limited content: few maps and modes, a small arsenal, and the best guns or cosmetics locked behind paid add-ons. Some find the Disciple boss too strong and the escape timers too strict. Recent reviews are more mixed than the older helpful ones, with more complaints about a late update that changed loadouts and about matchmaking. Overall it is seen as a worthwhile free horde shooter for friends, with rough polish and thin content as the caveats.

Praised

  • Fun co-op with friends

    Players say the chaotic rounds are most enjoyable with a full lobby of friends, with tight teamwork moments.

    Many players
  • Free-to-play value

    Players say the game is remarkably substantial for a free title made by a very small team, with no pay-to-win pressure.

    Many players
  • Procedural maps and replay value

    Reviewers credit the randomly generated maps and remixed missions with keeping repeat play fresh.

    Some players
  • Gunplay and bot teammates

    Guns feel meaty and the AI teammates shoot accurately, use abilities and carry lower difficulties.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Dated graphics and animations

    Players say models, lighting, textures and animations look dated, rough or unpolished, and some find it uglier than the first game.

    Many players
  • Thin content

    Reviewers note few maps and modes, a small arsenal and classes with limited primary weapons, with some key options locked behind DLC.

    Many players
  • Strict escape timers and the Disciple

    Players find the escape timers too short and the Disciple boss too tanky and fast, causing unfair deaths on higher difficulties.

    Some players
  • Loadout and class restrictions

    Players object that they cannot choose freely, since each class is limited to one operator and class assignment is fixed in some lobbies.

    A few players
Who it suits
Suits players who want a simple, cheap-to-try co-op zombie shooter to play with friends and do not mind rough visuals.
Who should skip it
Players who expect polished graphics, large amounts of content or a fixed balance on hard difficulties should skip it for now.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with many hours tend to complain more about thin content, repetition and the loadout restrictions, while newcomers mostly praise the fun and value.
