Zombie Apocalypse: Escape The Undead City

i have read all the negative reviews about this game but i am a big fan of the Zombie Genre and so i decided to give this game a try and make up my own mind. The game isn't bad in my opinion, and by no means is it a 5 star game either but i am having fun with it. the graphics aren't bad and the sound is okay too. However i see a lot of things that could have been done to make it a far better game but for $1.99 and for what it is, it's pretty fun and i am having fun playing it.

I'm honestly ashamed that I bought this game.

I had to get a refund.

Not enough zombies.

0.5/10

0.5 points because I was suckered into spending parking lot change to purchase it.

I hate to give negatve reviews but right now im not going to say "its still a good game". It is just a mix between Hidden object scenes and shootout with zombie hordes where u only have a revolver EVEN THOUGH you first had a shotgun and some shells AND see that you also have an assault rifle that you CANNOT use. The zombie hordes are at the end way too hard and hardly not doable without an auto clicker. Even though it costs like 2 bucks its still a trash game and not really recommendable. Better buy yourself something else but this game. I can really not recommend this game

we got shot gun start in the late game can only use pistol, zombie become more fire power became weaker good design

Honestly, I wanted to give it positive review despite of those 63% negative reviews! HOWEVER, I changed my mind. Here is why. Although I always like FHO (Find Hidden Objects) games, and dark and grossy graphics look good, this game simply sucks. Also, it gave me Dino Crisis vibes for some reason, and that is why I gave it anoher chance and played a little longer, but there are some problems that can't be closed eyes on them:
- Menu simply doesn't work. You press Esc, and due to close the menu Esc doesn't work again, you have to click on "Resume game."
- Menu doesn't stop. You press Esc, or "Menu" button, but game continues to play liek some online games and if you stopped during zombie attack, you will get killed.
- You are building zombie car, but it doesn't even show your progress like how many details you found/built and how many are left and etc.
- Game consists of 2 things: FHO and killing non-animated zombies that were copy-pasted, and some of them move really fast, so you have to be really fast and make sure you headshot them.
- The most important and the most annoying part of this game is that in the level where you have to find 12 bullets, 12th bullet's hitbox simply DOESN'T EXIST. You press hint, and it shows you where the bullet is, you click every pixel around it and nothing happens.

Conclusion: TRASH - Don't buy it as long as you want trading cards, then you can buy it on sale 90%+ OFF.

There is one problem I wasn't expecting from this game, the zombies move way to fast unlike the trailer they show us in the store page.. please fix it because I cannot go past another level because the zombies are way too fast.

The video in the store page is already showing everything this game has to offer
as you can see only 2 thing
shooting non animated zombies
picking up stuff

It's not bad, its a good mix of a clicker and a HOG, however, the clicker part gets WAY to tedious to warrant playing for long, not to mention that the hit detection in a lot of areas just does not exist, as such you will (no matter your skill level) have to repeact the clicking stages over and over again. Even at a sale price of less than a buck, I can't honestly reccomend this to anyone, even if they like clickers or HOG's.

Don´t buy it. It´s not worth it. And i don´t peak of the 1 Euro it costs; i speak of the lifetime it wastes.

I do love me some zombie games! But the only fun thing about this game is the loading screen.

Avoid unless it is 50 cents

Very intensed game
If you don't mind violent shooter games, you might like this game

Zombies and blood everywhere!

Why all the neggy reviews??
I can kill zombies with shovel & solve hidden object puzzles at same time!

10/10 =)

A completely USELESS really badly animated hidden object game with zero story. The objective is to first play a level with hidden objects in it, which is usually so babyish that you could probably find the items required simply by headbutting your keyboard. After one of those levels you then you get TORTURED by a rush of zombies coming at your screen and you have to click on their head before they get you. Survive the onslaught and you get treated to another hidden object level and repeat. The click fest eventually enters in the realm of absolute absurd rage quitting experiences. Unfair speeds, small hit boxes, impossible numbers, developers offers no other perks to help you. While it may play alright on a touchscreen device, its gameplay mechanics is not suitable for pc. Therefore the game very, very, very, VERY quickly becomes a chore to play, it is not fun and you will never see the end of this game anyway at least on pc. The furthest ive seen someone get on pc is to put tyres on their car and that was no where near the end of the game. If you want to see the end of this then you will have to get the app.

The game is made by these ios developers http://www.playanarchygames.com/ who have failed to properly port this to PC. For one thing the app allows you to blow up barrels which creates kind of a pink smoke which slows the zombies up a little, or limits the directions of them coming towards you. On PC exploding the barrels does absolutely nothing.

However even the app is a crazy touch screen fest and the game will either end with you being diagnosed with RSI or you needing a new phone since your forefinger is somewhere embedded into the screen. In final PC forget it. Send the developers back to where they belong as this type of unsuitable app has no business being here on STEAM.

A hidden object (horror action) game that should have stayed hidden in the App Store and Google Play... At least, the visuals and the audio show more effort than any Digital Homicide or BMC Studio's title...

If the 'lightgun' section was more finely tuned (like the recent mobile port of Mad Bullets), then the rest isn't so bad, it would still be an odd mix of genres; but could work. However, dear lord please fix these things:

- have the exploding barrels actually do something to the approaching zombies or get rid of them, they just obscure the nonsense swarming in this game.
- have firing the weapon give you better visual feedback.
- stop having so many layers of enemies flying at you at different speeds when they pass through one another.
- Also in the later waves it needs way better click recognition, either that or the head hitboxes are rubbish when body shots are worthless. Stuck at the 'kill 75 zombies' level because of a combination of these things.

This has the potential to not be one of the worst games on Steam.
I truly believe that playing this for nearly an hour is the least productive thing that I have ever done in video games.

pros
- $.49
- additctive fast paced intense game play
- pimp out a hyundai

cons
- Point and click game
- repetitive
- $.49

prons
- unlimited ammo / unlimited ammo?
- Best one we played so far

59 cents to the trash can, this might be worst than the slauthering grounds

I was about to make a joke about this (becuase i won't write a full review for this game), don't buy it, don't accept it as a gift, this shit should be banned and accused of crimes against the human kind.

oh and btw, "tap in the screen to continue" this is not in any way an android port.

So, I finally got around to playing one of these "hidden object" games. Here's sincerely hoping this isn't the BEST example of its kind...

Actually, that's not 100% true. While precisely half of the game consists of finding "hidden" objects to assemble a "zombie car" to escape the city (hey, just like the title!), the other half is a miserable excuse for a first-person zombie-shooter game. Complete one of the object-searching screens - they're not real hard, unless you have an almost game-breaking bug like I had, with a shotgun shell staunchly refusing to be picked up - and your reward is a one-minute point-and-click shooting range of dead'uns which goes from stupidly easy at first to practically impossible by the end.

What can I say? I gave up, somewhere close to the end as best as I can tell (unless the car was gonna get WINGS).

The real question is: with a title so suggestive of quality, how could they possibly have gone so wrong?

Verdict: 3.5/10.

Steam REALLY needs a "meh" button.
The game isn't as bad as some reviews make it out - though it is lacking and rather uninspired. It's what you'd expect to find on the many flash game sites.

Two simple things would immediately improve the game a lot:

1) change the cursor into something you can actually see amidst all the splatter and gray zombies. A one-shot to the head kills a zombie, but if you don't know where your cursor is, you can't really move to the closest zombie (they move at different speeds, and some simply "rush" to the foreground).

2) Make a way, or make it easier, to switch weapons. My click-finger is getting tired from trying to click probably 20 times a second.

The description talks about different weapons - I haven't seen a way to switch.
Also, the startup shows several keys that seem to have no function (probably a leftover from the game engine).

I paid 60 cents for this game, I'll survive the loss, I think :-D
But seriously, I wouldn't spend much more than that - even 1 Euro seems a bit much, the way it is right now.

I'm honestly ashamed that I bought this game.

I had to get a refund.
