Some glitches, but nothing game-breaking.
Eagerly awaiting some quality of life patches.

Love the game! Highly recommended!

Can't comment right now. Game is too good. Must play.

This game will pull you in, and make you love it. Then it will say you are not allowed to beat it.

It's enough to drive you insane. Maybe that was the game's goal the whole time?

This is "The War Z" with a new name.

I want that first and foremost so that whoever reads the review will understand that. If nothing else to spare them from the accident I made.

I was aware of this game before the name change (when it was called The War Z) and didn't like it. Unfortunately, I was unaware that a game could just change its name. So, when saw "Infestation: Survivor Stories" was on sale and read the "About" section I picked it up. I thought, "The worst that could happen is that I don't like the game and I'm out a little money."

I regret that I was unaware of the "Rebranding". I regret that I didn't do something better with my money, like pay someone to punch me in the face. I regret that I had the install this game and have it run just so I could write this review in hopes of warning people off from this game.

It is because of the many controversies present behind the scenes that I didn't want to buy this game. I don't want to support the people that made this by any meaning of the word. If I was aware of the rebranding, I would have avoided this game like it was a plague of zombies. At least until I got a blunt weapon, then I would have pummeled it until it was a red and green smear on the floor.

Even excluding the various controversies that surround the company that produced it, as a game, by itself, it is horrible.

If you want a post-apocalyptic-zombie-survival game I would recommend any other game on Steam that fits that criteria. It's not hard to find, and all of them are better than this crap.

I hope Valve removes this game from the Steam store, again. That's right. Valve has removed this game from the Steam Store several times in the past, because of a variety of issues they were having with the games producers (all of which can be summarized by the statement "The Executive Producer, Sergey Titov, was being an [bleep]").

I don't even care if I don't get a refund. I'm just embarassed that the game is in my inventory. I'm embarassed that my friends could look at my library and see this game here. I got "Flora's Fruit Farm" as part of a Square Enix Bundle and I would proudly wave that game as my banner if I could just delete this game from my list.

This is the zombie game I've been waiting for. The open world environment, resource management, morale, and maintenance of outposts and safe houses creates a more "survivor" atmosphere. It feels like I'm actually working hard to survive in a post-apocalyptic world filled with zombie.

It is like an Elder Scrolls gameplay style mixed with some The Sims mechanics. The mechanic of having missions timed puts just the right amount of pressure on you to give weight to your choices.

The driving is a bit floaty, though. I never liked having the walk forward button also be the drive forward button. Slight touches of the controls can send the car flying in that direction. There was also one incident where I drove through the horde, tried to stop after I passed them, and had my car flip forward on nothing. That was weird, funny, and annoyting at the same time.

I do appreciate the fact that cars handle differently, though. I have played too many games where what car you pick out doesn't really matter.

Other than the wonky driving, everything is excellent. I highly recommend it.
