Super fun until it’s repetitive and boring – Dark Days: Zombie Survival Review

The game is great and has lots of potential. It makes me sad to give it just 3 stars. I found myself happily playing it for hours, collecting things to craft weapons and items. The behind the player FPS handling is easy and intuitive! However... The game starts off like it might have a fun storyline but then it just disappears and you’re left to collecting and crafting things with no real point. Also some of the essential items are insanely hard to find or craft like the crowbar (Don’t waste the crowbar on fighting!) sharpening stone or bricks for example. Items wear out so fast, it would be nice if you could combine items to “repair” them, rather than having to carry around two of them. Also upon raiding difficult areas where you nearly die and break into the final main treasure chest you find amazing things you’d love to use, but they are worn out to the point of just falling apart immediately. Super disappointing when you’ve spent all your food and water and nearly died many times for a bunch of junk. Add a storyline, repair feature and make raiding have an actual payoff then I would love to give this game 5 stars and a rave review. I can’t see myself playing again until an update.
