Splatter - Zombiecalypse Now

There's nothing particularly wrong with the game and it does show up with deep discounts, but it's just not very interesting. The gameplay feels like a basic formula from 20+ years ago. The story is just some loose monologues between levels. The level art is more polished than average, but it's it's not enough to recommend. I think there has been just so much development in the top-down shooter space that this doesn't pass the entry barrier any more. You get a full idea of everything the game has to offer after 20 minutes.

A very good top-down zombie game from a small studio. It is quite short, but very engaging, with a well-made gameplay system, a good variety of weapons, a well-balanced difficulty and a story that is enjoyable to follow. There is not much to criticize, especially at its price. Definitely worth playing. 100% Steam Achievements Time: 10 hours Completion Difficulty: 3/10 Playthrough: 2 Missable: Yes Guide Recommended: No DLC Required: No Online Required: No Notable Requirements: Collectibles; finish the game on Maniac difficulty; upgrade all weapons to maximum level; score 250,000 in Survival mode.

ONLY WINDOWS VERSION WORKS. the first boss on maniac difficulty REQUIRES 4 level or a golden pistol. why the ♥♥♥♥ it doesnt say that it just needs fully upgraded weapons to just COMPLETE the FIRST boss in this game? i swear if you have nerfed xis jumps on maniac difficulty or made flares agaisnt xim actually useful,i wouldnt ve bothered to write a negative review. thats just strange,literally forcing me to exploit or something with the currencry by completing first level over and over by starting story over and over,till i get enough money to get a full upgrade.

Meh, but not too bad.

Played only 1 hour. - It doesn't look like much thought went into the design of the levels. - Enemy variety is low. - Weapon variety is low (pistol, shotgun, and SMG had practically the same effect.) - Story is cheap. - You can destroy a lot of the environment (for some $). Was fun for 5 minutes. That’s when I found myself wishing for those 2–3 treasure chests per level back. - Boring minigames, like throwing torches at maggots to clear a path. I wouldn't recommend the game even for free. It is very cheap on sale. But for almost the same price, you can get plenty of top-down shooters that are miles better in almost every respect (even though some of them received much lower ratings). Examples: Alien Breed Trilogy. Shadowgrounds & Shadowgrounds survivor. Alien Shooter & Zombie Shooter (don't know if these still work on win 11).

bought and played this game to buy its steam background profile lmao. this game is bonkers anyway.
