Project Zomboid - another zombie game

[Dr. Zaius]

Isometric action survival

Do you enjoy the sims but find it too tame? Do you like getting into dangerous situations with the undead? No? Are there too many zombie games?



There is a sandbox mode you can tweak such details as:




There's a pretty cool system of character traits and skills in place, basic rpg elements as far as 'you do something, you get better at it'.

You can build, craft, farm, stab, shoot, fish, run, sleep in chairs, drink bleach, etc.

I have 24 hours or so in the game currently, but I also started an easy game at real time to learn how to play and such. A couple hours of gameplay gets you into the swing of things.

It's pretty fun, and plays well and seems stable.

It's early access. Graphics are not a selling point, but the style isn't awful and it often reminds me of Zombies Ate My Neighbors of old.

It feels awesome when you break into and raid a place like a school/shop/mall and make it out alive. Maps are large. Being smart pays off; don't fire a gun if you don't have an escape route.

Oh and it supports multiplayer.
