The Dead are Not Dead

Don't get fooled by the high review score, this is a terrible survival horror game. Here are the reasons why: -tank controls, just why??? -controls overall are just bad -you can't attack crouching zombies with the knife, also they are way too fast -cutscenes when going through a door -no cross hair, aiming just sucks, bullets often don't hit even when you feel they should have -at the other hand zombies damage you from way too far -you can open the inventory during a cutscene and shoot, zombies still move towards you and play their attack animations (even though they can't damage you) -the two singing parts in the game are annoying -in general you barely find any items, exploring is usually not rewarded -it's clunky and buggy -lots of backtracking -first boss sucks hard, I could only beat him because he glitched out -performance can be bad even though the game has ps1 graphics -randomized sliding puzzle

The Dead Are Not Dead (T.A.N.D.) is a nostalgic nod to the golden age of survival horror, unapologetically drenched in PS1-era aesthetics and mechanics. Drawing heavy inspiration from classics like Silent Hill and Resident Evil, this low-poly indie title offers a brief but enjoyable journey into a gritty post-apocalyptic world, complete with tank controls, fixed save points, and a VHS-inspired presentation. You play as Alfred, a lone survivor navigating a decaying town in search of his brother, Jake, five years after a zombie virus decimated civilization. With a guitar slung over his shoulder and danger lurking in every shadow, Alfred's journey unfolds through combat, light puzzle-solving, and atmospheric exploration. While the narrative won’t win awards—it's serviceable and surprisingly serious for a developer better known for quirky titles like Poop Killer—it sets a decent tone for the gameplay loop. The gameplay will feel instantly familiar to fans of old-school survival horror. You’ll explore a handful of interconnected environments, collecting weapons, key items, and battling or avoiding undead threats. There's no reinvention here, and the game doesn’t try to be more than wh…

Hi,this iisnt about the game,but i play on laptop and i cant do the 2 clicks (mouse) at the same time,and there is no way to changes control,making it impossible for me to attack,so i couldnt enjoy the game at all,

A fun and straightforward homage to survival horror games of the 90's. It's quick and simple.

Pretty fun little low poly survival horror game. Runs nice and smooth and doesn't overstay or understay its welcome at all. It's not exactly anything too special or memorable, but it's absolutely worth the small asking price for anyone who likes this sort of thing. The story is not very interesting, but serviceable for what it is, don't expect anything too powerful here. 616 Games is responsible for a series of games called "Poop Killer" after all, so I doubt anyone is going into this one with particularly high expectations of the story telling. That said, the story was more on the serious side than I personally expected. You''l be wandering a small town area similar in design to some of the old silent hill games, traipsing back and forth between a handful of locations while fighting and evading the undead as you solve minor puzzles, collect new weapons and get key items to unlock new areas. If you've played any survival horror games before, you already know how it works - no surprises in the mix really. I found the controls/camera relationship a little odd but nothing too problematic, just feels a little peculiar to play a game with a character controller set up like classic Res…

- Very entertaining ps1 graphics stylish and cheesy story - Game heavily similar than first resident evil games and little bit silent hill and walking dead vibes too. - Very nostalgic trip to old resident evil games and if you have played those older RE games this games controls etc.. is easy, got same save system/ink ribbons like re, same aiming and some RE bullet sponge boss fights as example. - Fun trip to ps1 resident evil era times and very cheap so easily 7/10 enjoyable little game.
