Game

One of the better survival & crafting games out there. Find food, build a shelter, gather water, survive attacks from zombies and unravel the story.

The story is quite basic and even though we from time to time get the urge to replay the game we quite quickly find ourselves a bit bored after a few hours. But the graphics, atmosphere and the feeling of that anything can be lurking in the forest, combined with more and more crafting options being unlocked keeps the game exciting the first time you play it.

Co-op

Well done coop with the entire story being coop. Share the food you gather, build a base and help defending it.
