    There's a lot more to like about How To Survive than not, and at the end of the day, the addictive and fun gameplay trump its shortcomings.

    A great concept that chose the wrong genre. Fun for those looking for a Dead Nation type of game, but it lacks the edge of your seat, lightning gameplay of the former to keep gamers engaged for long.

You are left stranded on an island with a zombie outbreak to keep you company. You must eat, sleep, drink water, and craft your own weapons to survive. There are shelters and campfires you can find to rest and keep your stamina up. When you try to find shelter at night, the horrors come out. You must fend them off with a flashlight or a torch. The weapon crafting system opens up all kinds of possibilities. Anything from bows and arrows to wooden sticks with a rock attached to it. This is a pretty fun but short game and a great buy for anyone who is a zombie survival enthusiast for only $14.99.… Expand
