This game is heavily inspired by the regression genre, which I actually like more in game form than I do in comic/light novel form. I am always a fan of resource management and zombie survival, so it's an easy grab for me, but there are some issues that I would highlight for anyone looking to pick it up.
Cons:
-Some of the UI is janky, and with a timed survival game, that costs seconds you don't have. I have a lot of issues with them, for instance, "prying open" a box twice, when it's already open, and it's hard to organize the inv because the items are sometimes aligned offset and don't snap snapily.
-Heavy use of AI in the art and assets, which does make me suspicious about other elements of the game that I feel don't run super well (see: snap snapily, time passage)
-Translation errors, sometimes the English turns into Japanese (?). This hasn't caused more than one issue for me, but I think it's an odd oversight. It feels like it's translating in real time rather than just replacing the text, because it flickers back and forth sometimes.
-The in game time passage feels like it needs some tweaking. I'm not sure it's properly balanced yet.
-This may be part of the unbalanced time passage, but the text messages are obscenely annoying and frequent. It has been giving me a headache, and I don't think it's a management issue on my end, I think they should be scaled down. I hardly feel isolated with my phone blowing up every 2 seconds IRL.
-The game is actually fairly easy at standard, but I feel very flustered with managing messages and sleep because the day passes in what feels like seconds. I'm not sure I should be thriving this easily but also not having fun with the atmospheric additions. And again, the text messages are giving me a legit headache. I think the timeline of the game needs to be SLOWED DOWN to really get the real zombie survival vibe. I'm something like 46 days in and it feels like it's been 2 days worth of survival.
I wish it would be tweaked a bit, like I said. But I'm also easy to please with this flavor of game, so if you're not sold, think about it and watch some gameplay.
