TL;DR Exactly like the good early seasons of The Walking Dead, but the PS4 has been launched and replaced by the PS5 in the time the game's been in Early access.

One of the few zombie games that give a harsh but intense view on the formula. Take nothing for granted. Every single fight can result in death, or having a base you've built and hoarded supplies for hours become overrun.
Outside of a few balancing issues (Not enough bullets spawn for you to be able to get to max out shooting on a single character*, Several hours of painful grinding**) and somewhat empty in terms of content outside of Build/loot/grow*, There's a fun zombie game at it's core, About suffering, loss and pain. Best Enjoyed With Friends.

I've dumped a lot of time into it, I've 100% got my money's worth, but as a word of warning, things are progressing very slow. PZ was part of the the first batch of Early Access games and is currently the oldest game still in Early Access that is still being developed on at over 7 years. Make no mistake, This Isn't another generic Early access survival open world zombie game, The devs care and put effort into it.

*Fixed with mods. As of B41,
**XP multipliers can fix the issue
