    This expansion is a fun extra, but it ultimately fails to capture the original's sense of survival. The tension is still there, in fact even more so, which keeps the game fun. And several new features go a long way, but it just feels like a watered down SoD, which is very disappointing. Also, the fact that you have about two thirds of the map cordoned off ruins the experience.

    By moving the entertaining zombie survival antics from a hicktown to the big city city, State of Decay practically evolves into a new game. No improvement on technical aspects, though - textures are ugly and those zombies "hordes" are a joke. The lack of co-op doesn't help. [Aug 2014]

    A good value-for-money offering that expands and fine-tunes one of the Xbox 360's rougher diamonds. [Aug 2014, p.93]

    Despite its bugs and AI issues, Lifeline is a welcome addition to State of Decay. It builds on the canon already created and adds some very good features which would be amazing in the main game (hint hint). And whilst rather short, there is definite replayability to Lifeline as you never how things are going to turn out.
