    Terrible stuff, and what’s more quite predictably so. The problem’s made worse by how much better things would be if its fat was simply trimmed. Oh Sonic, where art thou?

    The problem is, once you’ve played each event a few times they become drained of any further interest. It’s great for a quick laugh, but there’s a serious lack of charm that fails to motivate in coming back for more.

    The experience is so short-lived and lacking in replayability that it's a hard sell. [Nov 2009, p.104]

    Gone are the days when it was acceptable to include hour-long levels and no checkpoints. [Issue#31, p.92]

    A few years ago How To Survive may have been enough to make the grade, but in a world overrun by superior zombie titles it barely makes the cut.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An exemplary piece of game design that makes narrative ignorance all the easier. [Issue#55, p.86]

    • 40 Critic Score
    The trouble is, said hints can appear superimposed over the play area, reducing play to a highly distracting farce. [Issue#57, p.107]

    If you need a version of Tetris on your Xbox One, this game provides for most of your needs, albeit with little finesse. [Issue#121, p.86]
