About Drag the Dead
A mind virus has taken hold of the population! Assume the role of drag-queen--zombie-slayer extraordinaire Zane Dmaaj and battle your way through mobs of NPZees, Fatties, SoiBois and more in the high octane, pearl clutching shooter Drag the Dead! A heart of gold, a corset of vengeance, fabulous in a world of revolt - don't get in her way! Dive into the chaos and fight to the end and see if you can put a stop to the mental pathogen that's turned humanity into a mindless mob of miscreant monsters!
COMPLEX AND DEEP PUZZLES
They don't exist in this game. You aren't going to have to worry about getting hung up on any block pushing or backtracking endlessly until you figure out how to trigger some kind Rube Goldberg machine style contraption to move on from one area to the next. Nope, not here, you just need to focus on killing everything.
INTRICATELY DEFINED GAME MECHANICS
Yeah, these are also not in the game. Drag the Dead is simple. Walk, aim, shoot. That's it. Kill a zombie and don't stop moving. We've stripped this project down to basics. No running, no jumping. No reloading, no health kits, no ammo. Just walk, aim and shoot.
ARCADE STYLE ACTION
Alright this is definitely part of Drag the Dead. You're going to be tearing your way through hoards of the infected - each mob bigger than the next - with new zombie types joining the fray as you progress through the game until the final showdown with "The Big Bad". If you die, don't worry, there's no pesky checkpoints and you'll be able to start right back at the beginning of the level.
MULTIPLE DIFFICULTIES
Drag the Dead features three difficulty levels. Firstly there's "Dragged Through Hell" which is normal, which is difficult but that's what passes for normal. Second is "Dragged To Hell". This option is not normal and more difficulter than the prior option. Lastly there is "Journo" which is designed for those players who may really struggle with the other two options, which means it's really easy. We're talking really, really, really easy.

Mindless action game in which you mow down hordes of undead. Sadly, issues ruin what could've been innocent fun. The hero of the game is a drag queen Zane who wears a cape and is dressed like a superhero. The entire package is very straightforward. You get a machine gun with endless ammo, four special skills that recharge quickly, and a city full of zombies that must be eliminated. There are four stages that must be completed. You are stuck in a city location where each stage plays out exactly the same manner, despite tiny changes in location. The objective is to eliminate every last zombie. Large tentacles prevent you from moving further because the levels are large and it’s very easy to overlook a zombie. Tentacles only vanish after the area's zombie population has been wiped off. Your weapon's only drawback is how frequently it needs to reload, but I can accept this design choice. Since there is no manual reload and you cannot tell how many bullets you have, this occurs automatically. Although the small range of the weapon is odd, I can see why it wouldn't be fair to be able to snipe zombies from a distance. Special skills don't exactly make you feel badass. You have a grena…7 found this helpful
Although it says I have only played 0.2 hours, I have played many hours of this game. I received this game for free; and if you're looking for something quick and to the point, and are tired of clutching your pearls then I would recommend this game. This game features a drag queen mowing down hordes of NPZees that come in all shapes and sizes in a dystopian modern world. As the player it is up to you to keep mowing them down and fight back against the mind-virus. I found this game perfect for me as the setting is something I'm interested in and considering how busy life gets, I was able to hop in and get right down to it.5 found this helpful
Highly recommend! Easy straight to the point 3rd person shooter.. You have everything you need off the bat with no weird strings attached. The little messages on the walls and advertisements are a neat and funny addition.. Not a ton of time has to be invested which is cool. Just beware of blowing yourself up from time to time (not that I have done that multiple times or anything....)5 found this helpful
