The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating its unique and engaging narrative, alongside good graphics and a variety of missions. However, many users express frustration over the game's progression system, which often requires extensive grinding through side missions to earn enough currency for upgrades, leading to a perception of it being pay-to-win. Overall, while the storyline and mission variety are praised, the balance between challenge and reward is a common point of contention among players.
“The game is very beautiful, and the graphic quality is good. The story mode is interesting.”
“Awesome story that reflects some kind of realistic manner made from a fantasy view.”
“Good story line, simple control, easy to follow, and multi-level weapons and campaigns.”
“The game is good and all but there is a problem with the sniper mode.. when it asks me to kill all zombies on the roof, the zombies were stacking and causing lag. I can't even pass the mission due to the massive stack of zombies up there that didn't even move.”
“Getting boring and boring with this game, ads always come up after one mission and the mission is a bit hard to accomplish with just little reward. It's hard to upgrade your weapon too; I'm going to uninstall this game.”
“The storyline is lacking; it feels like there is no real narrative to engage with.”

The monetization strategy of the game has been widely criticized for its excessive and intrusive advertising, with many players expressing frustration over forced ads after nearly every level, which detracts from the overall enjoyment. While some users appreciate the option to pay to remove ads, others feel that the in-app purchases are overpriced and necessary for progression, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab. Overall, the balance between gameplay and monetization is seen as heavily skewed towards generating revenue through ads, making the experience less enjoyable for many players.
“Although it has in-app purchases, it is not really necessary for progression.”
“I've played this game before and it's challenging. The only flaw is that in-app purchases are quite expensive; if only the price tags could be lowered, I'd be so grateful!”
“To make it better, there's no ads.”
“Forced advertising really ruined the game.”
“The constant ads and deal offers just killed what could be a decent mobile zombie game.”
“This game is an advertisement-driven money pit.”

Overall, the gameplay is generally well-received, with many players praising its fun mechanics, smooth controls, and impressive graphics. However, some users express frustration with issues like lag, online-only requirements, and the need for frequent weapon upgrades, which can detract from the experience. While the game offers enjoyable zombie-hunting action, there are calls for improvements in movement freedom and reward systems to enhance player engagement.
“Awesome graphics and excellent gameplay.”
“So far the graphics are nice, gameplay is fun, good upgrading system for weapons and the zombie art is amazing!”
“Great job on effects and gameplay.”
“But one thing I hate is that this gameplay is online-based only.”
“The gameplay itself is nothing special; I was expecting an FPS. Indeed it is an FPS, but it would be great if you (developers) just let the player move wherever they want, instead of standing still and letting the system do the aiming.”
“The graphics are nice, but the gameplay and GUI are not as good as other games in this series. The gameplay experience is not good when compared to the previous game in the series.”

Players generally find the grinding in the game excessive and tedious, often requiring significant time investment to progress, especially in later chapters and boss fights. Many express frustration with the need to grind for resources and currency, which can feel unbalanced and lead to a pay-to-win experience. Overall, while the game is enjoyable, the grinding aspect detracts from the overall experience for many users.
“I even tried grinding side missions, got to side mission 48 in chapters 1 and 2 and still couldn't get enough dropped material to upgrade my weapons enough to beat the boss for chapter 2.”
“Great online zombie game, but it's completely pay to win. You can't progress to area 3 unless you spend money. Area 1 is pretty easy; however, area 2 is very difficult to kill the boss. Even after grinding, you can't make enough money or gold. Even side missions are not going to help. I already spent some money in area 2, but it seems like area 3 is extremely difficult, and the weapons are way too expensive. There's also a battery drain issue, so I had to uninstall.”
“You need a lot of grinding to get enough currency to buy the next level weapon, and you're not allowed to use weapons for higher regions in lower tier stages, which hinders players' ability to complete unfinished stages if they do not waste materials on lower tier weapons or choose to prioritize higher tier weapons.”

“The game is pretty okay, but it definitely needs a lot of optimization because it lags so much.”
“This is pretty good, but Zombie Frontier 3 was better than this because this game needs some optimization. When it's single player, I should be able to play offline, but this is quite good. Please fix the bugs; I know it was just released a few days ago, but can you make multiplayer?”
