March 2025
It's still a good game, but if you're coming from State of Decay 2 then it's going to be a little rough. If you've been playing the sequel recently, I recommend staying off it for a couple of weeks before you begin this one so that your muscle memory doesn't misguide you when playing the original. These two games may be very similar but they're still different in ways that may not seem obvious at first. Story Mode is still pretty good, though it's something you'll probably do once and that's it unless you lose any of Marcus, Ed or Maya, then you might be compelled to start over again. Breakdown is still the definitive State of Decay experience and is where the game really shines, and for me it's still as addicting as it was when I first played it about 10 years ago. Lifeline on the other hand is rather stressful and at times, very tedious, and if you don't know for sure what you're doing, the game WILL punish you and the experience will become even more agonizing. Overall the first State of Decay is nevertheless a fun game and a great time, and I write that as someone who's been playing it from the moment it was available on the Xbox Live Arcade up until now when I re-bought the game for PC. That being said I will admit that its been bested by the sequel in many ways, but not completely, no chance. This game does many things better than the second, and Breakdown in my opinion is the very best part of the series; I think if you love State of Decay 2 then it's worth trying out just Breakdown alone if you aren't interested in the full game. (DO NOTE: one last thing. In Story Mode, you'll eventually receive a mission from Lily asking you to go up back to Mt. Tanner to collect her father's stupid watch; DO THAT MISSION IMMEDIATELY. Otherwise, the infestation at the Ranger Station will begin spreading to the nearby cabins and camp sites even though you won't be able to see this, and then your survivors will start to run away and go missing which can be a huge pain in the ass since there's a good chance they'll die if you don't receive the mission to save them.)

Good game. Showing it's age though. SOD2 is better in almost every way except for story and characters.

I absolutely adore this game. Its demo before I was able to buy the game had a huge part in my childhood. Thank you undead labs for making one of the funnest games ive ever played. I cannot wait for SoD 3! If youre thinking of buying it there is jank to the game but thats the part I love about it. I 100% recommend picking it up on sale if youre unsure and playing it. Its a really fun experience!

10/10 This game legitimately put me through the five stages of grief. I played the whole game exclusively as the starting characters Marcus and Ed. I was playing as Ed finally getting to the final location and scouting the surroundings, went to survey from the Ferris wheel and upon finishing instead of grabbing the ladder Ed launched himself to the ground. DENIAL: Even when he was squirming on the ground he still showed some health left so I told myself "It's ok, he will get up", when screen started fading I was like "Oh no" and exited to the menu. Loaded and spawned as Marcus listening to Lilis funeral speech. The game saved. ANGER: I was pissed, it wasn't my fault it was a bug, this cannot be, I won't stand for it BARGAINING: I was scouring internet for hours searching for a way to return to an older save version, through files, through recovery software. DEPRESSION: It was futile, there was no way, Ed was dead. ACCEPTANCE: I was left with a world where Ed, so sure of his maxed out reflexes slipped from a Ferris wheel and splatter on the ground. Finished the game as Marcus but the memory of Ed stayed with me. Rest in peace you spin-kicking beast.
