Very clucky controls and slow to respond. Rather be dead than having to play this ever again.

I somehow broke the inventory on my first go so i couldn't figure out what to do. Also why is the EXTREMELY long intro mandatory every time and cannot be skipped? ridiculous.

Doesnt work on my machine, just crashes without starting. Seems a few other people have this issue with no fixes. Ryzen 7 5800xt RTX 5060ti 32gb

Unfortunately the game doesn't work. I assume the problem is that it was made more than 15 years ago and just doesn't work on a lot of modern computers. The problem is that the game crashes immediately when you start up and there doesn't seem to be a reliable fix for the problem.

Hmm, I am on the fence on this one. Interesting game, interesting concept but the controls made me rage couple of times. Are there better zombie games? Yes. Should you play this? Only if you really like to play niche zombie games.

Personally I ended up being pretty disappointed with this. The story and gameplay just aren't that great.
