7/10 RE0 is definitely one of the RE games of all time. From the unique aspect of controlling two characters and having no item box I enjoyed how difficult this game was. I doubt I'll ever replay it unlike RE1 and 4 but it was an experience I don't regret having.

A classic in the Resident Evil line with a fun story and good characters and if your a fan of extra unlockable content, then this game has it! Something to bare in mind for newcomers to the franchise or people who have only played the later games/remakes, this is when the games where extremely trial and error and you had to be very resource mindful. You are not (nor do you need to) supposed to kill every enemy you see or rush through the game. There are some fundamental things you must understand about the legacy games before you play them as I have listed below: These games are not meant to be beaten in 1 sitting as fast as you can. Take your time, make notes of things and take breaks. Adding onto what I said above, keep a notepad be it virtual or an actual notepad with you. Maybe even have a print out or digital version of the in game map. Write down what enemies are weak to when you discover it, write down where you found things, the answers to puzzles and where tricky enemies are. Pay attention to what enemies you NEED to kill and which ones you can simply avoid. Information is key to beating resident evil. Don't be afraid to load up a save or die. Make multiple saves (you have 10 slots so use them) but don't over save since you have limited ink ribbons to do so. Take a risk like I mentioned above, the game is very trial and error so you are bound to make mistakes or even soft lock yourself on the first playthrough. So BE SURE to use all your slots up instead of saving over 1 slot. Don't take death as another set back but instead treat it like a lesson. What did you learn from your death? did you discover where some useful items where? did you find out the location of enemies that are important? did you solve a tricky puzzle? Death is common in this game, if you view it as just a set back then your going to keep failing. Use and write down all the info you learned and try again using your new knowledge. NEVER JUST DROP SOMETHING! Seriously there is an unwritten rule with these games I see almost nobody mention. The game has an interesting mechanic few people seem to either pick up on or mention to newcomers. Whenever you pick up and use a key item be it an actual key or some piece of equipment, you will be asked "this item is useless now, would you like to discard it?" this means you no longer need it and so you are safe to throw it away. The other instance of this is automatic discarding meaning you use an item and the game disposes of it without your permission. HOWEVER! if you have a piece of equipment and the game doesn't auto discard it or ask you if you wish for it to be removed.....that means you shouldn't abandon it! For example everyone likes to mention the hookshot being an item that can set you back. What they fail to realise is its because the hookshot is to be used the entire game. It never discards it for you and it never asks for it to be discarded. This means the games wants you to keep it for something later. Other RE games have similar items like code veronicas fire extinguisher. The tricky part is this game has no item box, so be prepared to juggle items around, but DON'T abandon them. Use your characters wisely. For some reason I keep seeing people primarily (or only) use Rebecca. The issue is they keep dying or using up all their ammo failing to realise what the game warns you of at the start. Billy is the combat guy, he tanks more damage, deals more damage and can solve puzzles that involve moving heavy objects. Rebecca can mix herbs and uses a mixing tool which is very useful for a puzzle later in the game. Rebecca however is very weak to damage and not the best at combat. So stop using Rebecca as the primary combat role when that belongs to Billy. Both have their places in this game so use them accordingly. Also their weapons also have unique abilities with Billy's pistol being slower but more powerful in overhaul damage, but Rebecca's pistol is faster and has higher chance of critical hits (headshots). A little extra tip is use your inventory to reload! seriously it saves you precious moments in game. The in game reload animation can let enemies get dangerously close to you and risk you getting attacked. Simply bring up your inventory and combine the ammo with your gun. It's slow in terms of real time pacing but fast in terms of not getting hit. You should also switch to your knife when safe to do so and finish zombies on the floor. Don't waste precious ammo on shooting the zombie an extra 3 times on the floor, instead equip your knife and stab em. Lastly READ! seriously the amount of playthroughs I have seen or forum posts of people not being able to solve puzzles or getting lost simply because they refuse to read is infuriating. This game has notes scattered all over the place and many of them contain clear answers to what your supposed to do. You can tell this too because many people don't read the tutorial notes that explain characters abilities and how to use certain items hence my previous post about people not using Billy correctly. Once you have done your first playthrough you shouldn't need the notes, then you can speedrun to your hearts content. But don't skip them then complain your stuck. If you can bare all this in mind you should have a lot of fun with the game. I'm not saying its perfect and it certainly has flaws like removal of the storage box, poor AI for the teammate, annoying enemies that are either just bullet sponges or poorly made and LOTS of backtracking. But you can certainly help yourself by following some of the tips above and not treating it like RE4 onwards where you rush in, gun everything down and move on.

Resident Evil?! Zombies? No, more like insect exterminator simulator. Approved, 10/10. Quick spoiler on how the game works: you gotta travel to China to bring back an item to Africa, but you lost gasoline and now you need to play a piano to catch a plane and go to Russia to activate the energy for the elevator back in China. Do you still remember about Africa? if no, mix some herbs and try again.
