Update I think they gave up on this game, they haven't updated it since 2019. This is a great game with a lot of potential. It's fun to choose your characters/weapons to tackle the hordes of zombies that are thrown at you. A couple complaints. Game overall was too easy. Very rarely did I not get a perfect mission on 1st try. 2nd, there is not much replayability with the game. You can reset the game but that is it. Please consider adding difficulty settings, multiplayer and more maps/scenarios.

very fun game! a little grinding at times oh, so you can get the best weapons and more food to improve your weapons and levels. many of the weapons are useless. melee characters who do not have toxic zombie immunity early don't get to get fielded. with a little rebalancing, would be an amazing game. Update: decided to reinstall and go for another playthrough... but none of my previous purchases were included. I would have to buy all those characters again. Not gonna happen...

This is a frustrating adaption of an alright board game. The original already has more than enough randomness (will I hit one time, or three?) This adds so many extra layers that it's honestly just frustrating (Will I hit one time, or three, using dice with a 74.3% probability to land face up, unless I level up? Will I hit the 1 HP zombie or the 12 HP zombie? Will I do 3 damage or 15?)

I enjoy the game as a way to pass the time. However, I recently had to reset my phone and upon redownloading the app, all the DLC bundles I purchased became locked again. Not sure if they are progress locked or it's an error with the app. Besides this inconvenience, the game is fun and intuitive.

I like the reimagining of the game for the app, but the game is buggy and there are no clear save points or options. I often would come back to the game to find a level breaking bug where objectives I needed had disappeared forcing a restart. There are also just annoying issues like collecting gear, leaving the app mid level, the returning to find the same gear markers had reappeared and the gear upon re-collecting would be different. Often worse. Really needs a skip all animations option too.

This is a really fun game. I enjoyed my playthroughs. My main contention is that it hasn't been updated in a year and, after playing through a few times, there's nothing new or different. When this came out, it sounded like they would be adding on to it over time. They have a lot of material to pull from in expanding the game. But... No expansion, no bug fixes either. Nothing. Fun for a time or two through. Don't waste your money on extra characters, not with it.

I preferred this version over the actual zombicide board game because of the progression system and story. Challenge keeps up with progression through about mid-game, but becomes far too easy by the end. This provided entertainment worth the price tag , but I've seen about everything this game has to offer. I'd pay for a new map/story pack but I don't see the point in purchasing new characters that don't differ that much from stock.

It's well executed, but the lack of any documentation on what the various weapon abilities mean is a serious flaw. Many times I've met the exact condition to use an ability and I can't use it. Clearly the conditions are more complicated than the text in the app says but there is no way to know what the actual conditions for using the ability are. Makes what would otherwise be a great game very frustrating. I'd give it 5 except for this one issue.

WAY Too $$ for small amount on content. Played thru entire game in two days of casual play. For cost of Game plus DLC characters, I expected much more. Asmode, you guys are better than this. Game is fun but cost is just nuts! Not even multi player. Now the good! Low learning curve. Improvements over the board game with zombie damage and upgradeable characters and weapons. And only ingame purchases are additional characters, which are not needed to enjoy the game.

I really like the core gameplay of this. It's a cool re-imagining of the board game's concepts into a persistent RPG. The math is a bit loose, but it's always fun. Problems? Well there are some really annoying bugs, like how trash weapons randomly spawn in my inventory, or how sometimes I can't equip weapons that I know I have for no good reason. Also, I bought all of the DLC, only to have it all vanish when I reset my progress. I contacted the developer and was told tough luck. If fixed? 5 stars
