May 2025
One of the first games i ever played on my Steam account back in like 2011 and it still holds up. Nation Red is the most simple concept ever - You're dropped in to a level and have to kill as many zombies as you can before they overwhelm you and eat your brains. Punchy feeling weapons, gore and power-ups keep things feeling fun and it has that "Just one more go" hook which all good arcade games have. It's also dirt cheap. One negative review on here says the game is bad because it has no plot and all you do is shoot zombies. Bitch, i have a minigun and an AA12 shotgun, all i want to do is shoot zombies!

For its age its a good top/down zombie shooter buy it on sale Nation Red is a really amazing zombie shooter game in third person perspective. Pros: + nice design, different maps / locations + playable in singleplayer, coop, multiplayer + different modes (e. g. defending a barricade, survival, king oft he hill, free play) + convenient music, good sound + different survivors with special abilities + all options possible (graphic, audio and so on) + selectable level of difficulty + you can turn friendly fire on/off, collect exp together or alone + a ton of zombies and massive growing waves + many different weapons which you get by killing the zombies + health kits, short-term skills (also by killing zombies) + levelsystem (you can choose an ability with every new level) + players can resurrect teammates at any time + 140 achievements to hunt, leaderboards + IT MAKES FUN! Cons: - no story (in Singleplayer you have missions, but no profound story) This game is for people who really enjoy using many different weapons, having action all the time, killing non stop zombies without thinking much and without a break.

This game is one of the best deals ever, it's very cheap, and will give you hours of fun It's a infinite shooter, you keep killing zombies and everything keeps getting more difficult, just like the old school atari games from decades ago, and ironically enough, this game is already more than a decade ago, but stills fun, I have played for years. Great to just distract from everything, also the music is good, it's just fun

To the old schoolers: This is the 3D zombie version of Crimsonland To anyone else: This is a 2010 throwback to a 2003 game that many geeks of the time loved. It was a great to play while EverQuest was patching or the servers were down because the patch needed patching.

Great game overall. In some ways this precedes vampire survivors. Leveling up and picking perks, slaying mass groups of enemies and etc. Maps are not as open as Vampire Survivors but it most certainly did Vampire Survivors long before it was a thing in certain regards.
