    I feel bad leaving a harsh review for an indie developer, but Red Nation is really sub-par. All the weapon powerups are the same; the starting pistol is just as powerful as the mini-gun, which may actually be slightly inferior to the crowbar. As such, the game lacks any kind of challenge. The use of the word "zombie" is dubious at best; the bad guys use weapons, are not infectious, displayI feel bad leaving a harsh review for an indie developer, but Red Nation is really sub-par. All the weapon powerups are the same; the starting pistol is just as powerful as the mini-gun, which may actually be slightly inferior to the crowbar. As such, the game lacks any kind of challenge. The use of the word "zombie" is dubious at best; the bad guys use weapons, are not infectious, display the ability to work together in the cutscenes, and don't require head-trauma to die. The enemies could just as easily have been robots, plants, unicorns, or some kind of sapient tumble-weeds, given how fast the flamethrower puts them down. It would be more honest to call this a dirty-people survival game. Speaking of dirty, absolutely everything is brown, the international color-code for mediocrity. Nation Red isn't even close to being as entertaining or slick as Dead-Ops Arcade, the top-down zombie mini-game in COD: Black Ops. I dislike typing that as much as you hate reading it: a game has to be pretty lame to unfavorably compare it to an EA title.… Expand

    I remember playing Crimson Land and truly enjoying it, so I was hoping to get my hands on something similar when I bought Nation Red. Right now I'd say that Nation Red is the crappiest game in my Steam collection.

    Isometric "zombie" survival co-op. You unlock skills when you level up but it becomes a hassle since you can't pause properly to select them in multiplayer. Too shallow and too few maps/gameplay modes. Ugly, repetitive, and frustrating to control. No redeeming values that I can think of besides the fact that it is playable.

    Nation Red is not as simplistic as Legion of Man, DiezelPower’s previous creation, but it’s still dull and unimpressive.

    A surprisingly moreish zom-bomber. [Dec 2009, p.109]
