Must have for old school gamers
wow, i downloaded this game expecting nothing special, just another average game that is pretty much the same as every other game on reflexive. However i was plesantly suprised to find this game, which turns out to be completly different from anything else i have found on reflexive, it impressed me so much i signed up just to write this review. The excessive blood and over the top voilence gave the game a humorous edge that made me laugh because it was just so overkill.
I was very impressed that it even included admiral ackbar and his famous quote "its a trap", was there anything this game missed out?!! This game had me wide awake and constantly wanting more the entire way. I would definatly recomend it to anyone who would consider themselves an oldschool gamer, but it would most likely not appeal to the average diner dash, or match three player that this site mostly attracts.
Top job 10/10 no doubts |

Casual vs indie
I'm surprised to see this game here really, and it's no wonder it's getting some low ratings. I'm going to write this review a little differently from my previous reviews and explain something which I think is rather important in the indie/casual gaming zone.
I'm sure you all know what a casual game is. Zuma, Big Kahuna Reef, nearly all match 3 games etc. They're built for casual gamers, hence the name. Then you get indie (independent) games. These games come from independent studios, normally of only 2 or 3 people. Generally these groups make all the casual games as casual games are normally rather simple to design for the smaller budget these indie studios have. However, some indie studios do not create such casual games. Examples of indie games that are not so casual would be Gish, Gumboy or Risk II (all available on reflexive!).
Now the majority of people on this site are no doubt after casual games, such as the match 3 games, or the currently rather popular Mystery Case Files series. So when we get an independent game on reflexive that isn't really casual, it can be kinda hit and miss. Most of these "not so casual" games such as this one have been out for years on the developers website and have only come here now in an attempt to sell a few more copies to the more casual market. Obviously these sort of games don't always appeal to this market, this game is obviously getting a bit of a love/hate thing going here.
So, what am I getting at? This game is acctualy good, I'm not going to go into the details because I don't have enough room. However, it probably doesn't appeal to the taste of alot of people here who simply arn't looking for this type of game. What I recomend you do, if you have enjoyed previous less casual games such as Gish or Gumball, is to give this a shot. It's a rather hefty download, but if you can spare it you may enjoy it.
However, if your a casual gamer who's simply after a quick fun puzzle game, you may want to skip on this. |

Actually Pretty Fun
This game is really a lot of fun, I was hooked immediately. To those complaining of gore, what did you expect? They're zombies, and we're smashing zombies! D'OH! If you have issues with violence and blood (it's so overkill here it's hilarious) then find something else to play.
Peeves aside, the graphics put me off at first but then if you look closer it actually fits in with the parody-ish feel of the game. Actual gameplay is amazing, I had trouble adjusting at first but like other players say, level up and it'll be easier. Explore everything, you'll find many opportunities to improve your skill.
This isn't a coffee break game, more like a "I'm procrastinating!!" game, LOL. Just give it a whirl :-)
Only con I see is the music, BLEAH!! I turn it off most of the time. |

wow
this is what i needed. This one does not have the most beautiful graphics or the sound, but its quite playable and fun. It reminds me of an old nintendo game River City Ransom (hey! this one is almost identical). I had quite a lot of fun with it on the NES and this PC remake (!) is surely as good. |
