  • gameplay15 mentions

    The gameplay of the game is criticized for being overly simplistic and repetitive, leading to a lack of engagement despite some mechanical effort. Players found the novelty of the core mechanics diminished quickly, and while controller support was noted, it did not significantly enhance the experience. Overall, the game is deemed not recommendable due to its tedious objectives and short playtime.

    • “Mechanically, I can appreciate the effort that was put into this game.”
    • “I played with the Steam controller and found the partial support a little frustrating at times (I switched back to keyboard for a couple of precision jumps), but overall it didn't really impact the gameplay.”
    • “The novelty of the core gameplay mechanic wore off pretty quickly.”
    • “However, the novelty is not worth the painful slog that is the gameplay.”
    • “Overly simple gameplay, stock sound effects, and it took 46 minutes to beat, with most of the time spent just running around for stragglers.”
    • “In summary, I can’t recommend Zombie Simulator; it’s a good concept that’s weighed down by overly simplified gameplay and repetitive objectives.”
  • story4 mentions

    Players found the story engaging, particularly enjoying an early mission with a Mad Max theme that drew them in. However, there was a noticeable decline in additional tasks during the latter part of the game, which some felt detracted from the overall narrative experience.

    • “Becoming hooked after an early mission with a bit of a Mad Max theme.”
    • “The game used additional tasks pretty consistently in the first half, but I don’t remember seeing any in the last six missions.”
  • music4 mentions

    The music in the game is consistently praised for its excellent selection, enhancing the overall experience. Additionally, players appreciate the in-app sound controls that allow them to adjust both the music and environmental sounds to their preference.

    • “Fun, excellent choice of music as usual.”
    • “First off, Zombie Simulator has in-app sound controls for music and the environment.”
  • replayability4 mentions

    The game suffers from a lack of replayability, as players find it unchallenging and unengaging once completed. Without additional modes, competition, or scoring systems, there is little incentive to revisit the game after finishing it, limiting its long-term appeal.

    • “It lacks challenge, engagement, and fun - with no replayability, there’s little reason to pick it up.”
    • “Once you beat the game, there’s nothing gained from it like a freeform mode to further the game’s value, and there’s no type of competition or scoring system implemented, so the game has no replayability unless you didn’t do those additional tasks.”
  • monetization2 mentions

    The monetization strategy of Zombie Simulator is criticized for being reminiscent of low-quality ads commonly seen on platforms like YouTube, suggesting a negative user experience and a reliance on aggressive advertising tactics.

    • “Zombie Simulator feels like one of those terrible ads you get while watching YouTube.”
  • emotional2 mentions

    The emotional aspect of the game is characterized by a juxtaposition of lighthearted gameplay with dark themes, as players navigate the consequences of an apocalypse initiated by their character. The experience evokes a mix of fun and moral ambiguity as players swarm over both soldiers and civilians, highlighting the emotional conflict between enjoyment and the gravity of their actions.

  • graphics2 mentions

    The graphics are considered satisfactory for the game's context, with particular praise for the impressive depiction of the swarming zombie horde.

    • “The graphics are good enough for what the game is, and the swarming of the zombie horde is very nice.”
