  • story
    1,123 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Walking Zombie 2" is generally described as decent but often lacks depth and originality, with many players noting its reliance on repetitive fetch quests and a simplistic narrative structure. While some appreciate the humor and light-hearted tone, others criticize the story for being bland and filled with clichés, often feeling like a vehicle for the gameplay rather than a compelling narrative.

    • “The story is quite interesting, and the game is packed with hidden surprises—like the sad chicken in the intro and quirky easter eggs.”
    • “The story is amazing, the graphics like this are appreciated by me, it is interesting and very vivid in color.”
    • “The game is okay at first, but once you reach the second location, you will find that the missions are mostly filler content just to expand the very little storytelling this game has.”

    • “The missions are repetitive and being the errand boy.”
  • gameplay
    330 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game is characterized by a repetitive loop that often involves completing similar fetch quests and backtracking between locations, which can lead to boredom over time. While the mechanics are generally smooth and enjoyable, the aggressive push for microtransactions and a fuel system that limits travel can detract from the overall experience. Despite these issues, some players appreciate the RPG elements and find the gameplay fun, especially in short sessions, making it a decent free-to-play option for casual gamers.

    • “The gameplay is smooth if you've chosen the right settings, but also it's a fun survival game.”
    • “Whilst it is free to play, it really aggressively pushes microtransactions, and while I'm sure it is technically possible to complete the game without spending a single penny, the gameplay loop is small and repetitive, with your weapons rapidly becoming underpowered while upgrades in the shop are ruinously expensive.”
    • “But here's the catch: after about 10 hours, the gameplay starts to feel repetitive and dragged out — not because of content, but because of mobile-game design choices.”
    • “Gameplay is repetitive and so are locations.”
  • graphics
    233 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    214 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization in this game is heavily criticized for its aggressive push towards microtransactions, reminiscent of mobile gaming practices. While it is technically free to play, players report that the gameplay can become tedious and repetitive without spending money, as upgrades and essential items are often locked behind costly in-game purchases. Many reviews highlight the constant presence of ads and prompts for microtransactions, which detracts from the overall experience, although some players note that it is possible to enjoy the game without spending money if one is willing to endure the grind.

    • “Despite having many microtransactions, the game is still very well balanced and offers a lot of content for being a mobile port.”
    • “The monetization is a bit off-putting, but hey, it's a free-to-play game, so you can't really complain!”
    • “Microtransactions are very tempting, but never absolutely mandatory.”
    • “Whilst it is free to play, it really aggressively pushes microtransactions, and while I'm sure it is technically possible to complete the game without spending a single penny, the gameplay loop is small and repetitive, with your weapons rapidly becoming underpowered while upgrades in the shop are ruinously expensive.”
    • “The downside is that the game (like many other free games of the sort) does contain microtransactions that are constantly shoved in the player's face.”
    • “The second you slap ads into a player's face asking them to spend money in your 'free' game is the second that game becomes garbage.”
  • grinding
    139 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews consistently highlight that the game features excessive grinding, often described as tedious and repetitive, particularly for leveling up and acquiring in-game currency. While some players find enjoyment in the grind, especially in a free-to-play context, many express frustration with the time-consuming nature of farming resources and the reliance on microtransactions to alleviate the grind. Overall, the grinding aspect is a significant point of contention, with many players feeling it detracts from the overall experience.

    • “A bit grindy sometimes.”
    • “Too much grinding; the story is alright, has pop culture references and sometimes they are kind of funny, but the ending is terrible.”
    • “The game is okay and it's free, but it is too grindy and can be repetitive and boring.”
    • “This game felt like a chore to beat because there was always grinding to be done and no end goal, and the fact that there isn't actually an end just exemplifies that.”
  • humor
    104 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is a standout feature, often described as a mix of dark, campy, and absurd comedy that plays well with its zombie apocalypse theme.

Overall, the game successfully combines engaging gameplay with a lighthearted tone, making it an entertaining experience despite some repetitive elements.

    49 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Overall, the soundtrack is seen as a missed opportunity, with suggestions for more dynamic and action-oriented music to better complement gameplay.

    • “The music is quiet but it will raise up goosebumps and lay around the perfect feeling for the end of the world scenario.”

    • “The cutscenes, music, and voice acting are so uncaptivating that I just turned that off and have Spotify in the background.”
    • “The main background music of the game also conflicts during cutscenes.”

Overall, the game feels unfinished and buggy, leading to a generally unstable experience for many players.

    • “Practically bug-free.”

  • optimization
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received significant criticism, with users reporting severe performance issues, including low frame rates, crashes, and high GPU usage even on lower settings.

    • “Apparently the game needs quite a bit of optimization to reduce CPU/GPU usage.”
    • “This is either a very poorly optimized game or a bitcoin miner.”
    • “This game takes up 97% of your GPU on max settings and 60% on lowest settings, so I'm leaning more towards just very, very poorly optimized but still, it'll ruin your hardware.”
    • “Optimization is horrible; some more crowded locations and the single boss fight that I managed to reach dropped to ~20-30fps.”

    • “I like the art style and atmosphere; it's a good game for what it is.”

    • “I like the skills and perks, like Fallout: New Vegas type things, but sometimes they don't seem used well or used in the wrong places, and it can ruin the atmosphere.”
