Sure is fun

Not really my type of game, never liked racers, but I don't think this is exactly a racer.

The objective is to run through the city with a car, you'll face some abandoned vehicles, stupid-ass civilians, dumbass military that shoot YOU instead of the zombies and of course, zombies. (There's more, like abandoned props) You have to avoid them all except zombies, you can try ramming zombies but watch out, some of them can get on your windshield and block your view, break your windshield and then eat you. Unless you have a gun, but then you'll have to break the windshield and trust me, the windshield IS very useful. You can also ram up soldiers, but watch out their shooting. If you ram civilians, you lose RP points and that means you lose upgrade points. So whatever you do, don't ram the civilians! You also get to use a horn so the civs can move away, though they're not that smart, they might as well still around like idiots waiting for you to ram them.

The game is rather adrenaline-packed, you'll have to make sure to avoid killing civilians and getting as little damage as possible. There are checkpoints which you can reach and when you die, you start there instead of all over the beginning. Sometimes getting to check points might be easy, sometimes it might be hard, but still. The real truth is, getting to a checkpoint means that you'll start on a harder track instead of the very first one, where hardly anything even appears, just a drive-through a lonely road.

The music is okay, there's a small variety though...Even though you have a radio, you use it to hear the military broadcasts instead of music. That's strange, I'm very sure every "Guy driving a car through Zombie Hell" would switch to a funky Rock & Roll song and just run through zombies all day instead of listen to the military broadcasts. This protagonist sure is smart and he's also a knight because he doesn't run over the civilians (or at least doesn't want to, given the dialogue and RP loss).

Also, this game makes a stereotype on the military;
All they do is just stand there in front of the zombie apocalypse and shoot at YOU, a civilian! There are zombies all around and all the military care about is stopping YOU. What the fuck?! We know this guy is, somehow, breaking the law because he's trying to escape from a quarantine, but come on now? Just for that? There are zombies, those are a lot more dangerous than just a guy driving through to get out of the quarantined city. Did I mention they are very incompetent too like the stereotypical law enforcements in horror films? Yeah, not only they don't fight zombies, but when you're ramming them, they just stand there and shoot. Now that's a soldier VERY dedicated to his work, of stopping a simple civilian instead of saving civilians from a zombie threat.

Anyway, this is a really fun game for everyone, but if you love zombies and racers, I bet you'd rather it 9 or 10, so go try it out!
