### 5/5 — I love the game

*2021-02-20, version 1.1*

wish it had more attention or morupdated. Only problem I have is it puts my iPad to think it’s portrait mode but the I played the game horizontally. That and more new stuff. I like the old 3D ps1 look or just old graphics. I just love it. I want more updates I guess or more stuff but I’m fine with this.

### 4/5 — Underrated game

*2019-01-07*

Most underrated iPhone game I’ve ever seen! So good, I love killing zombies and rouge survivors, maybe you could add more areas and weapons though.  4/5

### 4/5 — Sound doesn’t work with the new iPhone XR :/

*2018-10-30, version 1.1*

I love this game hope it gets updated with new content but that will probably never happen. Anyway the sound doesn’t work with my iphone please fix if you can Brett.

### 5/5 — YES

*2018-05-24, version 1.1*

I can finally play my faveorite game from 6th grade I’m in 9th grade now

### 5/5 — Best Mobile Zombie Game

*2017-12-30, version 1.1*

This is such a masterpiece, please continue to update so this’ll be the number 1 zombie game. Also, advertisement will help make this game popular.

### 1/5 — Won’t work with the new update!

*2017-09-24, version 1.0*

It’s no longer working since I updated it:(
I used to love this game too!

### 5/5 — This is a masterpiece

*2017-03-21*

I have had this game since 2014 and it's now 2017! I really want more in this game because it's amazing!

Please add more like the guns that are in the concept art that didn't get included, a bunch of new maps, armour or clothes you can find and a worldwide online server 

Thanks for the great game

### 5/5 — MUST BE POPULAR

*2016-12-11*

I can't find anyone to play with

### 2/5 — Under the radar incomplete game

*2016-07-26, version 1.0*

A rare gem in the open survival genre for mobile. Decently polished no game breaking bugs. Obviously has limitations graphics wise so I won't judge. Multiplayer is interesting but don't bother hardly anyone ever plays this game. Has the potential to be a fun 3 star game but has literally zero exposure. Only giving two stars for lack of updates in a incomplete game.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2016-03-24, version 1.0*

It's very fun and I could play it for hours! A couple things to add is:
-First Person Mode
-A couple other types of weapons (SMG, Sniper)
-Unlimited time survival
-Drivable Cars (Sometimes it may need parts like a wheel or gas)
-Add a mode where instead of a town it's a city to survive in
-AI can also search in things and find stuff like weapons, and that maybe you can even talk to them
-Barricades
-Add more maneuvers like when you swing a melee weapons or when shooting guns
And that's it! Overall it's a cool game and I think it really deserves more attention!
