Reviews for "Zombie at the Gates"

Quite a fun little game you've created. I don't understand why everyone here is complaining about the weapon strength. It seemed fine to me. Heck, the last sword would 2-hit some of the zombies. It's a great game.

To everyone getting stuck with being overcrowded, use the fences to your advantage. They can't pass them. Use your stomp on one side to stun then, open the gate, smack them in the face, then run back. Rinse and repeat. Also, don't keep blowing all your money on the next weapon. Save up and skip a few weapons to get an uber weapon. I think I saved up from the third melee weapon all the way up to the last one, and there was a big difference there.

All in all, a fun game. The only thing I'd like changed is the materials system. They become useless towards the end of the game. Perhaps if you make another, give the player control of what the materials are spent on as well as giving them options. For example, instead of the gates to other areas, maybe the player would rather hole up in a super-fort. The advantage would be that they're always revivable, the disadvantages would be less resources found and a possible trap if the zombies manage to break through. Good job pal

weapons are too weak.
ground slam control was never explained in game.
life was meaningless since you couldn't walk through a zombie without it killing you. basically if you get into a situation where you need to let something hit you, then you're dead.

overall the difficulty level was stupid. you really had no way whatsoever to control if you survived. you'd just have to get lucky.

WITHOUT fail, everytime i'd get cornered by a bunch, i'd stomp to stun, run past them and have a new monster spawn right on the other side of them and kill me. nothing i can do to avoid that.

the graphics are great. the sound design is fine. but the balance? some of the worst i've EVER seen.

I really liked the game but it had a few flaws. At times you got overwhelmed with zombies, to the point that you couldn't kill them. The weapons were under powered, and the zombies overcoroweded the "safe zones" sometimes to the point where you couldn't get past them to kill them. The cost of upgraded weapons was at a good pace for the amount of money you got.

If you upped the weapon strength a little, and allowed the zombies to roam more it would have been perfect.

I really liked this game, it has so many good features and, in my opinion, it is very good.
The game is easy, has nice graphics and a funny story. The difficulty increases as you progress, which is good. Also, the battlefield's simplistic design is just beautiful! I also like the boat/springs idea, very creative. This game also obligates people to plan their moves (especially when 'Vikings' start to spawn), because one doesn't wants to become trapped between two hordes. In this case, you can use the stomp hit, which I think was a very good implementation to the game, making it easier.
About the music, I just love it! It never gets too repetitive and fits pretty well. Great job with this, it really looks like you've put a lot of effort into this and I hope you make a sequel!

Not bad, but the king was a little slow, and the ranged weapons seemed basically useless. Other than that, it was all pretty good.
