Steam reviews

What players say

Mostly positive: players find it fun and replayable with friends, though the open alpha brings bugs, progress loss and balance problems.

Many players enjoy the simple loop of scavenging, crafting and surviving zombie waves, especially in co-op, and several praise the satisfying gunplay and smooth performance on modest PCs. Some players compare it warmly with the original browser game. The complaints centre on the alpha state: some players lose inventory or progress after crashes or disconnects, and local saves reset on a new PC. Others find the damage interruptions of reloading and healing unfair, the late waves too hard, or the ammo scarce for the weapons they have. A few want attachments, cloud saves, a better island and more content. Recent reviews are more mixed than the older helpful ones, with more complaints about the combat changes and bugs, though most still recommend it.

Praised

  • Satisfying shooting and weapons

    Players say the gunplay feels smooth and rewarding, with a good range of weapons to try out.

    Many players
  • Fun with friends and co-op

    Players say the game is at its best in co-op, where the chaos of zombie waves becomes more enjoyable.

    Many players
  • Scavenging, crafting and loadouts

    Players enjoy gathering loot, managing inventory and testing different loadouts from run to run.

    Some players
  • Runs well on low-end PCs

    Players with modest hardware say it runs smoothly, which makes it a good choice for them.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Crashes and lost progress

    Players lose inventory or progress after crashes or disconnects, and local saves reset when they change PCs.

    Some players
  • Reload and damage interruptions

    Players find that taking damage cancels reloads and healing, and that reloading is too long, which feels unfair in fights.

    Some players
  • Difficulty and scarce ammo

    Players find the zombies too fast, the late waves too hard and ammo too scarce, so the game can feel stuck.

    Some players
  • Repetitive and linear

    Players say the gameplay loop becomes repetitive and the content is limited for now, as expected in an alpha.

    Some players
Who it suits
Players who enjoy simple zombie survival and shooting, especially with friends, and who accept an unfinished alpha.
Who should skip it
Players who want polished, bug-free content or a faithful copy of the original, and those who dislike harsh difficulty and interrupted combat.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with short sessions often praise the quick fun, while some players with many hours want more depth, more content and fewer repetitive runs.
