    For a game that’s just a couple of hours long, and costs less than a fiver to get hold of, it just about caters for those who wish to take a gamble on surviving another zombie apocalypse.

    If you fancy some childish ‘adult’ humour interspersed with a simple choice based dialogue system, Scheming will do you for an evening. Just don’t expect to get much more out of it than that.

    Scheming thru a zombie apocalypse “The beginning” is a hilarious game based upon your own choices. The game is filled to the brim with profanity, which is something I like. It’s like the adult swim of games, that most games don’t do. This game is very unique. Even thought it is the zombie apocalypse there is still a lot of comedy. The story line is as funny as can be. The game follows the misadventures of two friends, a young dog and a 60 year old rabbit, stuck in the zombie apocalypse trying to survive. When their supplies run out they venture into the world to scavenge convincing others to do the dirty work while they provide assistance from their van.
    Your choices matter more than what you would expect. Scheming thru a zombie apocalypse “The beginning” teaches you to be a master at negotiating. You have to get scavengers to gather loot, and what you loot matters. You have to share some of what you loot with the scavenger doing the work. Another thing I like about this game is there is some logic behind it. I just wish the game was longer.
    Scheming thru a zombie Apocalypse “The beginning” is a 2-D game with cartoon graphics. A little more music would make the game better. This game doesn’t require you to be a pro, all you got to do is make choices. I would recommend this game to anyone with a sense of humor. Overall Scheming thru a zombie apocalypse “The beginning” is a terrific game I definitely recommend. I can’t wait for part two.
    Pros: Good humor
    Various outcomes
    Cons: Short play time

    I give this game 9.5/10
    Give this game a try!    … Expand

This game has a greatScheming Through The Zombie Apocalypse: The Beginning is a click and decide stylized game with some very adult humor. This game has a great artistic design, interesting characters, and an as I already mention a lot of adult humor. I wasn't really sure what to expect, so off with the game I began... So the important moments in the gameplay for this title come from the idea that decisions matter. As the pair you will essentially be guiding people to do looting of resources for you. You spy on them through a pair of binoculars from the safety of your van during of course the zombie apocalypse. You'll give them instructions on what to grab and if they should do certain things. Usually humility or bad situations occur within the decisions you make and will effect the outcome. This appears to be the start of an episodic adventure similar to what we had seen from TellTale over the years. Ultimately any decision you make doesn't effect your progress, and decisions made do effect unlocking of your achievements however. The episode is rather short in the sum of about 90 minutes. It seems the game released in 2018 on PC so hopefully we will eventually see more than just the beginning as there could be a lot to enjoy in this adventure if we were to ever get to see: the end on the Xbox One.… Expand
