  • monetization
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in the game is generally viewed as fair, with many players appreciating the absence of forced ads and the option for voluntary ad viewing for rewards. While some users find the in-game purchases to be expensive and occasionally perceive the game as a cash grab, the overall sentiment leans towards a positive experience, especially for simulation fans. The subscription model and microtransactions are noted, but the lack of intrusive ads is a significant highlight for most players.

    • “It has monetization, but I think it's quite fair and there is a game around it!”
    • “Amazing game, worth it for any simulation fan. No ads, but it has a fairly decent subscription system and microtransactions.”
    • “Love that there are no forced ads, but it would be nice to gain speed ups or resources by volunteering for ads.”
    • “Pretty fun game, played Shop Titans and it's the same as that, but I prefer the setting of this one more; the game does seem like a cash grab every so often though.”
    • “Similar to Shop Titans but the early days when it wasn't about cash grabbing.”
    • “All bad monetization practices in your face.”
  • graphics
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received generally positive feedback, with many users praising the visual style, character designs, and overall aesthetic. However, several reviews note that the game feels like a reskin of "Shop Titans," suggesting that while the graphics are appealing, they may not offer enough originality compared to the original title. Overall, the graphics are considered top-notch, but the game's similarity to its predecessor raises questions about its uniqueness.

    • “Love the graphics, the world setting, and familiarity to Shop Titans.”
    • “Excellent graphics.”
    • “Animations and graphics are top notch.”
    • “Feels like a previous unfinished build from Shop Titans was taken and only new visuals and sounds have been put into place.”
    • “This is just a very basic reskin of the game Shop Titans, and honestly, in my opinion, Shop Titans does it better, both in gameplay and visuals.”
    • “Literally a copy of another game... just different graphics.”
  • gameplay
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been described as repetitive and largely derivative, with many users noting that it feels like a reskin of "Shop Titans" with minimal innovation. While the post-apocalyptic setting and unique character designs are appreciated, the core mechanics lack depth and variety, leading to a sense of monotony as players progress. Additionally, some players express frustration with the pacing and selling mechanics, which detract from the overall enjoyment.

    • “Similar gameplay but in a post-apocalyptic setting with interesting characters!”
    • “Great mechanic allowing you to play as much as you want.”
    • “It's definitely a well-polished game for only hitting the shelves a few days ago; microtransactions aren't too egregious, but the gameplay seems fine without spending a cent.”
    • “Like survivor classes having unique animations at creation, but all using the same generic animations during gameplay.”
    • “This is just a very basic reskin of the game Shop Titans, and honestly, in my opinion, Shop Titans does it better, both in gameplay and visuals.”
    • “Just a copy of the game with the same gameplay.”
  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is described as a derivative experience, essentially a reskin of "Shop Titans" with a zombie theme, featuring similar gameplay mechanics and quests. While some players find the narrative engaging and enjoyable, others criticize the lack of originality and the heavy reliance on paywalls, which detracts from the overall experience. Additionally, technical issues, such as music glitches, have been noted, further impacting the immersion in the story.

    • “Different graphics and storyline.”
    • “Fun game, interesting story, can't put it down.”
    • “It's not amazing; it is an exact, literally identical copy of Shop Titans, icon placement, themes, quest system, way overpriced characters to purchase (£30 just to let you make certain weaponry?!), and even has the same random crashes as Shop Titans.”
    • “Reskin of Shop Titans; literally the only effort that was put into this game is the models of characters, environment, and UI. Same gameplay: get some 'heroes,' send them on quests to get materials; they even have the same animations.”
    • “Your game is Shop Titans but with a zombie story.”
  • stability
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is heavily criticized, with users reporting numerous bugs, including freezing issues and persistent sound problems even when settings are adjusted. Many players experience crashes and glitches, particularly after reaching certain levels, leading to frustration with gameplay. Overall, the game is described as "beyond buggy," with calls for better support and moderation against hacking.

    • “The game is beyond buggy.”
    • “Downloaded this game and as soon as it loads, it asks you to change your name... then freezes... and I can't even type in my name... real fun.”
    • “Game is fun up until level 20, should have kept the 2x item boost event up until December 12. I don't understand why they ended the event now. Bots and hackers altered accounts on Steam and Bluestacks, now hacking so hard that the main servers are extremely buggy where the game will do a hard crash from time to time.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is praised for its quality and ability to enhance the atmosphere, but players are frustrated by persistent bugs that cause the music to reactivate unexpectedly, particularly when returning to town or accessing certain menus. Despite the enjoyable soundtrack, these technical issues detract from the overall experience.

    • “Great music and atmosphere.”
    • “Please fix the music bug where it starts after you go back to the town from a battle.”
    • “I can turn it off, but as soon as I click the loot tab for my adventurers, the music comes back on.”
    • “But after the last update, the music unmutes itself every time you visit the city or do a mission.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game manageable, especially for free-to-play users, as there are no significant paywalls hindering progress. While some describe the experience as occasionally tedious, particularly during the lengthy tutorial, the unique characters and absence of mandatory purchases contribute to a more enjoyable grinding experience.

    • “There's a lot of grinding if you're F2P, and there are clear and numerous advantages to paying a little, but there's no wall (so far in several months of playing F2P) where you can't proceed without paying.”
    • “Very long and tedious tutorial.”
    • “Fun, albeit grindy at times.”

    • “The funny thing is it tells you it's around 570 MB to download, but then it takes 5 GB when I actually go to download it. How does that make any sense?”

    • “I love how the game doesn't take itself too seriously, with hilarious character interactions and unexpected punchlines.”
