Reviews for "Road of the Dead"

great

best game i played here

good

but my motion sickness kicked in before I got too far.

Hard, but cool

this is hard because when im Escaping, a zombie kill me or a military guy shoot me freak out, BUT AT LEAST IS COOL THIS GAME!!!! you need to make a sequel whit first person shooting, also new cars and the most cool is more weapons and enemies also upgrades

Addictive, fast paced, challenging, great story.

So yeah. When you think of Zombies and "Escaping the City" most folks don't jump into a '09 Ford Mustang with a battering ram spot welded on the front.

But what would have been one of the first things I wouldn't have chosen to do if the Z-contagion ever broke-out (akin to say, going to a hospital), you have managed to turn into a ridiculously fantastic game.

This is well animated, well coded (excellent hit boxes--I love *just* clipping a Zed or trooper and getting the hit), has clever use of sound effects and the car and items (windshield wipers? but jeez do they ever get used--especially if there isn't a water barrel around), deploys frantic and kinetic physics which feel spot-on... I could just go on and on and on.

By far the best aspect of this game is the surprisingly fascinating characters, whom you only HEAR. The use of the radio to listen in on the military's conversations with each other, about you the player, and about the scale of the apocalypse grounds this flash game in a heady, fast paced environment. It's addictive, challenging, and a highly entertaining story.

This game is HARD. I constantly wanted the windshield last a longer. I found myself punching it out once it got too cracked to see through clearly. And really that just makes it more challenging. Ugh-and dodging pedestrians. I started from the beginning when I was about 2/3rds through, to earn more RPs, and killed 10? by accident and it subtracted 1500 RPs! I probably played this for 3+ hours before I managed to actually beat it.

There's not much more I can say. If I had any request, I'd appreciate the ability to control the level of the sound volumes (not just on or off), but I know that's kind of hard to do. That and "Hell-Fire" sounds like he's on meth... :D

All in all, fantastic. I'm probably going to fail out this semester from playing this game.

The gameplay is addicting. The upgrades keep you coming back.

Overall its a very well designed game.
