This asset flip has you fighting waves of asset flipped zombies on a single map while doing a couple of fetch quests... even as far as asset flips go, this one is badly assembled and plays terribly. Only a bare minimum of effort was put into putting this together... it's a true testament to just how harmful Steam Direct has proven to be to the average level of quality of all video games on Steam, with shovelware like this pulling the average down sharply.
Needless to say this asset flip has zero real value for gamers as a product... and the kicker is, this isn't a free tech demo or anything, the developer genuinely wants your money for it! It's also, amusingly, proof that Microids don't bother vetting games from their indie program to see if they're asset flips. Ouch.
Two notable criteria for what makes an asset flip instead of legitimate use of stock assets are whether those assets comprise the majority of the game, and whether the "developer" properly credited the people who created most of the assets in the game. This game fails both of those tests. The "developers" here didn't credit any of the artists and real, actual game developers who created the assets here, so this is plagiarism, as well as cash grab shovelware.
Taking this shovelware seriously as if it was a genuine attempt to make a game, it doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard.
The controls can't be customised, which will be an annoyance for many, but it can also render the game unplayable for differently-abled gamers, left handed gamers or gamers using AZERTY or other international keyboard layouts.
These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game.
The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 8 players. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected.
So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam?
ALPAGES : THE FIVE BOOKS is relatively cheap at $1 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, and the questionable ethical nature of the developer and/or their associates (as outlined above), this is impossible to recommend. Remember that if you buy a game from an unethical developer, you're putting your money at risk.
Listen, it's bad, but it's not *that* bad. Everyone is talking smack on this game, it just is a fun lil project, and obviously wasn't intended to be a full game. It's a dollar and can be fun for a lil bit!
Great Game!
its actually challangeing to beat,
all dem haters just rate bad because they dont concider this is a game from 2015 xD
but actually it kninda looks like from the 2000s :D
Would recommend as a funny gift or challange to friends for christmas or so, rather cheap :^)
It's 99cent and I don't know if you manage to stay alive longer than 3 minutes, but if you do, you are probably a god. The enemies spawn just everywhere, the graphics are a huge plus tho, I kinda liked them and didn't expect them to be like this. Get it for the memes.
Well, well, well.. What can I say?
I have played a total of 7 minutes and can say that this game is pretty damn trash. Zombies are way to strong, even tho they are one hit. The are way too strong because they spawn unreasonable and in high amounts, make too much damage and basically just appear behind you. The game has no options or pause menus, you can't even change the volume! The game gives you no explanation what to do and.. You know what? I'll make this a bit quicker...
DON'T BUY THIS NO MATTER HOW CHEAP IT IS!
...except you want a high game count on your fancy dancy steam acc <:
1/10
a good potential was missed, feels like game-play is too rush and unpredictable monsters jumping like Aliens teleporting from nowhere. your brain for zombies Fest is guaranteed :)
I honestly don’t think this game is as bad as most of the people on here claim it to be.
I admit it was rather entertaining. You need to keep in mind, that a single person developed this, and that it costs 99 cents. Not more.
For that price, you get a fun game.
The map is rather big, and you can enjoy shooting endless amounts of zombies. Yes, the gameplay is simple: shoot zombies and find the 5 books, but it is also enjoyable.
The graphics are fine and the movement too. The sound is rather cheap but manages to deliver the right horror-feeling.
All in all, a solid game. Great work Nicolas. I will check out some of your other titles.
Absurdly murky, absurdly difficult. And not the slightest bit "fun".
Yet another incoherent, slapped-together mess of minimal, random assets meant to pass as a "game". The only notable thing about this particular entry is that it's one of the earlier trend-setters of this rather dubious and uber-modern approach to "game design". Nowadays, such products are legion.
I, for one, am glad that I waited several years before finally opting to experience its myriad displeasures. In 2015, I would no doubt have given this at least a half-hour before writing it off; in 2019, ten minutes was all I needed to fully fathom what I was dealing with. Hell, I had a pretty good idea at the two-minute mark.
All hail lazy, unimaginative devs! May they live long yet never prosper (but hey, if you wanna be silly like me and foolishly waste 50c or so of your hard-earned dosh, go for it)!!
Verdict: 2.5/10.

While the game looks pretty good for a Unity game by an indie dev, the gameplay itself is terrible. It is artificial difficulty. Enemies spawn right behind you and all around. Health can be restored by picking up red plants or it slowly replenishes. But there is no map so unless you see one of the books spawn you'll never find them all as you'll be killed too quickly. After about two minutes of play you will grow frustrated and just uninstall.
Finished the game . Will probably never return to it.
It's just too shallow, there is zero gameplay. You just run, collect some books and kill a witch.
Cannot recommend.
I bought this and wasn't expecting anything. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, was still pretty bad though.
The main menu lacks any control options, no way to change your sensitivity.
Graphically it's a mess, ammunition pick ups are massive and so are the books. The lighting, is atrocious, it's hard to see in some places, bright in others. The animations for the guns are atrocious, the textures in this game arew absolutely horrendous!
Sound was very bad as well, thankfully it wasn't ear-poppingly loud, but there is no option to adjust the sound regardless. The music seemed to be all over the place, the zombie sound effects were very stock, to the point I actually heard quite of a few of them in songs I listen to.
As for Gameplay, it's just Slender The Eight Pages, but with guns and zombies. Honestly, it wasn't super bad. Not great or even good, but the concept is sort of different, I guess?
Overall, yes the game is very mediocre, far from the worst thing I've ever played, however.
I don't suggest buying it even on sale.
Alpages: The Five Books is an indie horror arcade title by Nicolas Bernard, the same developer that created Terror Labs. SnipZ, and Showtime 2073. As its genre and store page suggests, you run around killing zombies and other supernatural creatures, all while trying to find 5 books. Each book has a unique enemy that spawns somewhere on the map after you pick it up, the kicker being that they are invincible.
Let it first be said that there are absolutely no worthwhile features to this game. Everything from the poor title screen that has an abundance of spelling and grammatical errors, to the uninspired gameplay itself. Enemies spawn atrociously fast, meaning that if you actually spend your time playing the game the way that the developer intended, you would be doing nothing but fighting zombies, picking up health, and replenishing your ammo supply instead of making any progress toward finding the books. It's best to just keep on running around the needlessly large map instead; it took me about 15 minutes to find 3 of the 5 books.
That being said, I had to turn my attention away from the game and in doing so I instinctively pressed ESC to pause. When I came back to my PC some two minutes later, I found out that the ESC key isn't pause at all, it actually resets the whole game. I have no idea what kind of crap that is, but the developer needs to change that, and fast. It's just the ugly corn-filled turd on the crap cake that is Alpages: The Five Books. Even the HUD is boring, and for some reason when you collect 1 life, you get two, but when you die you lose two lives as well. There are multiple instances of this type of attention to detail missing from this game.
Alpages: The Five Books isn't even worth the $0.54 CAD when it's on a 50% off sale. The world and atmosphere are bland, the gameplay is tried and true but somehow even worse than most indie zombie shooters, and it's set at an unnatural and unfairly high difficulty. To put it bluntly the game just isn't fun in any aspect; unless running around a huge, empty map collecting books, lives, ammo, and health with endlessly, and frequently, spawning zombies that hit too hard is your idea of enjoyment.
Rating: 0.5/5.0 - Abysmal, avoid it like the plague.

First that game looked really nice cause i like games with zombies, especially shooters.
But after playing a little bit it get´s annoying and it´s always the same.
Also the grafics are not the best and the gameplay is not easy.
IT´S NOT WORTH IT!!!
After reading all of the negative reviews for this game I was dubious about playing it. Thankfully I was actually very pleasantly surprised when I did finally boot up the game. You really need to keep your wits about you while playing because zombies, and other animals will spawn close behind you as well as in front, and with several different types of zombie spawing randomly, some of which are quite challenging to kill because they are so quick. You will soon find yourself losing lives rapidly.
Personally I'd much rather play Alpages in third person, because then I'd be able to see zombies and other animals spawning behind me without having to change my viewpoint constantly; unfortunately that isn't an option and consequently I died regularily until I developed a style of play that had me circling virtually all of the time to keep my sixes in sight. This did initially give me a little sea sickness and was exhausting, but once I got used to the style I was able to survive for much longer, and managed to find three of the books before losing all of my lives.
I've played the game so far for over three hours and have still to get close to beating this very challenging game, that has decent graphics and sound effects (for the price), with a day and night cycle (when you respwan), and some very atmospheric and at times spooky environments with the occasional maze like area's that can leave you dazed and confused (I'm now playing my original copy of Led Zep's first album on my old record deck) and for the ridiculoulsy low price of £0.79/$0.99 there are enough game play elements such as power ups; for example, other weapons, ammo and health plants, and if you die, the books you are collecting do spawn in different places, so you never know where they are going to be from each play through, making Alpages a very replayable game and IMO well worth purchasing.
It's not the best survival game I've played, but really, for the price, the time and effort I've personally put into the game has been a very positive experience and does not deserve such a negative score that it has so far garnered. At least a couple of hours of game play is needed to really appreciate this game.
Check out AtypicalChuck's review HERE, which I think gives a good and well balanced review of this game. What I don't understand is why loads of negative reviews come first before you see any thumbs up. That is bound to put a damper on a lot of community members before they even check the game out via You Tube to see for themselves what the game play entails. The following videos were not recorded by me. I've added them so that you can see some game play footage. Both are worth watching through, (one is in French and one in English). The French guy makes me laugh in a pleasant sort of way.

A good game to play when your board. EDIT: You know what I changed my mind. the reason why is because the music in the game can cause copyright. Which happened to my 2-year-old video this year then I had to delete it. And it ain't fun as I thought. Back then when I was playing the game later it crashed. That was on to the point where I was done with this game.
You know a game's promising when they have to hack it to stay at 100% hp for the trailer
I bought this game just to point that out
Not quite sure if that supports them or no
I would say at the moment this game isn't very good. This is due to the fact that it constently lags. It's ashame because it would really make a good game. I wouldnt recommend buying it for now, I would wait and hope it develops. The sound is also to high no way of turning it down or off :/.
Complete rubbish! The gameplay in this game is ridiculous. Monsters that can not even be seen spawning at stupid frequency with very poor vision. Heading straight to the refund queue.
Game is awful, comments deleted from forum ..All the issues remain , zombies spawn at a ridiculous rate, cant play more than 5 minutes because this is just awful. I finally get to use the refund option. Do Not waste your time with this one
This game has no redeeming qualites as of the writing of this review. There is no interface, and you are dropped into a hastily made map where zombies once in a while attack you.
This is someones for fun project, and not a real game.
There are plenty of real games on Steam for a similar price.
Do. Not. Buy.
