Best top down zombie survival game

Yes there is a formula. Yes they all look the same. I’ve played several. This one I actually feel invested in, though, because it’s a show I’m vaguely familiar with. It has the cleanest UI and the female characters aren’t scantily clad help me senpai uwu with the dudes being Buff Guys™️ saving damsels in distress. If I’m gonna stick with any, it’ll probably be this one. Maybe there will be cool mini games like some others. My suggestions to the developers are to play their competitors’ games and consider adding mini games similar to what they do, like actually taking a small group of survivors on a mission and doing almost like a mini tower defense but at a location you’re trying to explore for resources, instead of just sending a character away and poof resources. There should be an option to do it automatically like the way it is now, and then for some extra XP or something do it more involved. I like the formations and how matching certain characters makes the formation overall more powerful. I wish I could create my own character and edit looks as well as buffs, like a real RPG, instead of being this benevolent "boss" and thats who I am. Make me a character, make my decisions matter in terms of how we interact with other groups, etc. Thank you 🙏🏻

It is pay to win...but fun

I've played war strategy games for two decades now. They are all pay to win...don't kid yourself or complain about it. It's how they make money. If we didn't have to pay the games would be lame. My only wish is that there would be more skill required to win. All you have to do is out spend the other guys and you'll beat them. No skill required. With that said TWD is a good game. Graphics could be better but the lower quality creates a faster game experience. I play State of Survival which is basically the same story line based on the TV show. It has better graphics but is slower to play. I prefer faster game play. Again do not download the game and expect it to be FTW....you can play for free but you will be left behind quickly. If you simply want to chat and watch it's fine. I recommend the game and have enjoyed it...but I put some money into it. So if you're one of those still on a quest to find a true free to win war strategy game keep looking. This isn't it. However if you understand that those FTW games don't exist and love war strategy games...try this one out. It's worth it.

Trash

Was booted out of a clan for no reason and can’t join another for 12 hours. This game is expensive and I’m a diligent player actively playing constantly. This game is trash and is not fun anymore. Do yourself a favor and skip this game. Don’t skip it because I’m mad but because I’m a honest reviewer. These almost 5 star reviews are fake. This game is superrrrr expensive and they make it so you have to pay to play and it’s a bit wild for the cost just to do simple things. Upgrading players and builders doesn’t help it just makes it harder and when you upgrade and think your getting stronger they add several hours or days in between to be able to play unless you “buy” things needed to speed up the time or certain goods and it’s usually both. Once you spent an absurd amount of money then you can upgrade or complete but then you gotta spend more to do it all over again. Ten dollars for resources that sometimes don’t even help just to increase somthing so minimal is crazy. 99$ gets you jack crap to or like if you want a player you gotta spend 20$ from the elite shop lol but it can only reach level thirty and then you gotta buy “fragments” and you need a ton of them to upgrade so in reality it’s like several hundred. It’s a greedy and sneaky way to profit and I can’t lie they are doing it and can’t be mad at the hustle but as a consumer that’s not good business. Won’t be lasting long either.

Pay to play

This is a pay to play game. Not a bad game, but you need to buy in order to keep up. That’s not so bad, but when you buy, then dont get what you bought, but get an error message instead, that tells you to contact support, then wait for hours before getting a response, which in the meantime you use other resources, which you paid for in the long run anyway, and then get what you did pay for, because it was obviously paid for, then the rep asks if you think you should be compensated, and you thank them and tell them you’d appreciate that, and they come back and tell you, “nope, that’s a network issue, no compensation” That, after buying things for several days running. You would think they would want to keep paying customers happy, but apparently they make more then they need. I didn’t mind spending a little bit, but since I see their greed, probably spent my last in it. Plenty of other games P.S. After telling the rep that I would go do a review, I was filling out the review as to the performance of the customer service, and in the middle of filling it out, the game, for the first time ever, suddenly shuts down and the review can’t be brought back up.

Read the negative reviews. Don’t do it.

I’ve played for about 6 months and paid about $200 into the game. Read the negative reviews and don’t get sucked into this game. It has a lot going for it. It’s fun to meet people from around the world and create cooperative groups to move forward. However, the negatives outweigh the positives. It is absolutely pay to win. Realize there are some people out there who will waste tens of thousands of dollars on this game to bully everyone around. When a few of these people join together, the game is over for everyone else. One of these top spenders can take out an entire clan of a hundred people. After this, you either live under a shield with limited activity, or you sit on the season 1 map and farm vegetables, which is absolutely boring. In the last season they allowed several clans in a server to join into mega-clans. Inevitably, one of these servers will create a mega clan that is stronger than all of the servers on the map put together. At this point there is zero competition because no one else stands a chance. The game is essentially over unless you want to spend thousands of dollars. Simply put, this is a game for people with no skills and a lot of money to waste so they can bully others around. Don’t do it, there are lots of good games out there.

Watch out

While the game can be fun to play, it seems to have a certain amount of bugs and be careful about spending. I had a friend magically have $1700 stolen out of his account shortly after buying something for this game! He wasn’t able to use it because of a bug and when he contacted the GM, there were all these charges to his account. 2nd, you can’t delete the your account! If you ‘bind’ your account, they have your Facebook info and Facebook book is big on selling your info. But in general, there is no way for you to just delete and you should be able to. I even looked it up and still no info. This seems to be a trend with games now, why these games are so bent on hanging on your info is obvious. 3rd, it’s pay to win. Don’t spend a lot of money on thing that doesn’t exist or brings you benefits in RL. I can see $.99 here $4.99 there once in a while. But there are people who spend $100s if not $1000s. Why? It’s a ‘rinse and repeat’ type of game. And you know the developers are like - sucker! ; 3 And to the developers- why should I send a screenshot of any type of feature? You should know your own game. Please respect people’s privacy and rights and create a way for them to leave, you’re just trapping them and their info.

Worst customer service

It’s a fun game. I have been playing for over a year now. Once you get past the beginning and join a clan. It’s definitely worth it. But please note the customer service is very poor and won’t take responsibility for anything. They make excuses after excuses. My game kicks me out after a long play. I was attacking another player and someone attacked me while I was not in the game because it dropped. The customer service wants to blame everything but….first said it’s my internet and I should get better internet. While home I have home WiFi and phone internet. How is this happening. Then they tried to say it’s my storage on my phone. Which that is not the case. Then they said it was the memory space. Please I pay extra for a memory plan for more space. They will not take responsibility at all. So keep that in mind. I gave 1 star. Because in today’s world customer service has gone down hill everywhere. Time to take that back and refuse that service. Thanks *Update had a new issue today. The game glitched during an in game event. Till the bitter end. I reported it and they still blame my phone instead of fixing issues. Maybe this shouldn’t be a phone app if it can’t support phones properly.

Pay to win, don’t waste your time.

The game’s art style is pretty lame, I’ve seen browser games with better art direction and style. Over all, the gameplay is pretty much what you’d expect from a clash of clans-esque game. You build your town hall, you upgrade buildings and you train your troops. Rinse, and repeat, it gets really boring and pointless after about a month. The in game events are as boring as it’s art style is, they lack creativity and diversity. The rewards usually force you into spending other precious resources, and they are leaderboard driven, so anyone willing to dish out real life money will be the ones to take the gem rewards. You could save a month’s worth of speed ups, but it is so dissatisfying once it is all said and done. The pvp is the worst part of this game, IT IS PAY TO WIN. You can pay to skip town hall levels, you can pay to upgrade your equipment, and you can obviously pay to roll the loot boxes. You can pretty much imagine the state of the game, it’s very one sided, and not even worth your time. I played for two months and checked out a couple of regions just to give my review, unless the devs fix the pay to win, which they won’t, I recommend you save your time/money and take it elsewhere.
