Brilliant adventure across a zombie infected America based on the classic Oregon Trail. Captures the necessity of balancing supplies and risks in the situation very well. The purposefully clunky combat controls make you think hard about what you should and should not risk. Loved the presentation and especially very fitting music. Only complaint would be the total absurdity of some of the event that happen along the way. Zombies trying to grab you and taking tyres by accident? Fine. Cans of gas falling out of the car? I guess. People breaking bones just by sitting in a car? Unlikely. I liked a lot of the references to other zombie games too particularly in the pictures of the major stops like Left 4 Dead and Zombies ate my Neighbours. Highly reccommended and at a little over 2 hours long for the main campaign you'd have to be mad not to.
