On the surface The Killing Antidote may appear to be a RE clone with gooner bait, but, if you are a fan of zombie games, don't be fooled by naysayers. Zombie killing is a blast in TKA, both main story and creative challenge modes. The game play is top notch. Character movement feels good walking/running/aiming and neither the stamina system nor the inventory load are too punishing. Some challenges have tight windows for dodging/repositioning, but that's what we want from our zombie games! What's complete thus far has an engaging story and also includes a wardrobe full of clothing, allowing you to create your perfect zombie slayer. Yes, there are a lot of revealing outfits, but there are several that are pretty modest. There are also options for you to turn off some features of the game that highlight your character's curvier side. For some players, the sexuality will be the reason they play this game, but honestly, Jodi (our main character) could be clad head to toe in a snowsuit the entire time and I would still enjoy it more than many, many triple A titles I paid at least twice the money for... The level design is extremely well done and almost always rewards exploration with a collectible or one of dozens of shortcuts. Some might feel certain sections of the game are too great a hurdle, while I am sure others will feel it's too easy. This is solved by the offering of typical play modes (easy, normal, hard, very hard) so there should be something here for all third person, zombie shooter fans. It's simple. If you like TPS, zombie slayin', adventure/survival horror games with some light puzzle solving and don't mind an old school video game dose of femininity, I would recommend you at least download the demo and give it a try. Jodi is the Chinese Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I personally can't wait for the rest of the story, and am going to go back to achievement hunting now. Peace.

Unironically came for the boobies but stayed for the gameplay. Surprisingly tight gunplay and controls.

This is a nice game from fresh developers. It's early access and a little cringy sometimes but the Devs work extremly actively on the game and are very responsive. Don't listen to people who say it is to hard. It's a trial and error kind of game and sometimes you need to think out of the box. The more you play the better you get. The infamous stealth section has already been changed at day 2 and is much more enjoyable now. But even that wasnt hard once you figured out how. The content is plenty as well, i'd say its about as long as RE3 remake at this point, but if you dont use guides, and enjoy the expirience you'll get plenty more of time out of it since the game doesn't hold your hand like so many other games these days.

Early Access v0.5 Review + Beautiful graphics. + Good optimization. I'm on outdated hardware but the game still runs and looks great. + Amazing physics. + Weapons (both ranged and melee) feel very impactful. The axe (main melee weapon) specifically feels really satisfying to use. + Animations are really well done and during combat there's even dynamic animations intertwined with the physics depending on the weapon and the state the enemy's in. + Awesome zombie dismemberment system (i. e. if you chop off a leg, the enemy will crawl and attack you on the ground, and so on). + Everything involving the main character's control and animations is really polished and well done. Jodi can run, jump, dodge, crouch, roll, climb ledges. + Melee combat is great for a survival horror game. You got light attack, heavy attack, stomp (like in Dead Space), weapon throw, stealth assasinations and special finishers for stunned enemies. + Above average variety of game modes for an early access game. Aside from the Story Mode, you get 6 extra challenge modes. Tons of replay value. + Light clothing damage (could be heavier but I'm happy to have it anyway, even if it's minimal). + Expansive character customization: makeup options, around 230 clothing and acessory pieces, 30 hairstyles so far (according to the developer). + Chest and waist sliders. + Jodi's model puts all RE Engine ladies to shame. - There's only one story chapter available right now. This justifies the game being in early access, but for those looking for a complete survival horror campaign, be warned: the story mode is not complete yet. In conclusion, this is shaping up to be an amazing survival horror game. And no, this isn't your typical cheap asset flip waifu kusoge, it's very clear the developers care and are trying hard to deliver a polished experience here. Even if you don't care about the dress-up and character customization, you'll still enjoy this if you like survival horror/third person shooter games.
