State of Decay: Year One, is a very fun but highly frustrating game. This is a buggy and messy experience, albeit a fun one. The graphics are par, while the voice acting and story itself is take it or leave it. The story is essentially the tutorial. The game mechanics and building is where the game shines. It is like a simpler and better looking Zomboid style game. State of Decay is a far from problem free experience. Between crashes, having to use mods to get certain things to work, and many glitchy and buggy moments, the game is a trial of patience. However, the game is still overall fun and I am hopeful that the second one plays much smoother than this version. Additionally, the game resets every window open on the computer to full size, if the game is set to full screen. The game runs best at 1080P and lower. If you do run it higher, you risk far more issues and the graphics will constantly flicker and have artifacts. I normally play games at 4K, but this game was not worth the sacrifice, so I played at 1080. There are sometimes audio issues as well, where gunfire will get extremely loud, with no other audio having that occur. I just played with the audio low. In all, I still recommend State of Decay, Year One, as a fantastic game, but know the problems before going in, to decide if you are willing to put up with it. Fun and enjoyable, but highly frustrating experience is to be expected.

🧟‍♂️ Closest thing you can find to an actual "Walking Dead fantasy": You establish a camp, upgrade it, hoard resources, then move to a better one. It can be overrun, your people can get infected, die, leave, or fight each other. The only thing missing from that fantasy is fighting enemy human factions. 🧠 Really addicting gameplay loop, especially the looting and management aspect. Its fun, but not overly complicated. The main campaign is quite easy, so you probably wont see many bad things happening. But there is the sandbox DLC Breakdown, where each time you "extract" the game becomes harder and harder. Thats where the main fun and challenge are. 🩸 The only real problem that can frustrate people is the low zombie density, and because of that the game often needs to spawn zombies out of thin air and behind your back. The game can also be a bit clunky, but it never actually caused me frustration or broke anything. So if you have zombie game fatigue, this one is worth a try, its camp management spin can feel quite refreshing.

State of Decay is a bit of a weird one, as it seemingly has a bit of everything in it. *It has the sprinkling of a base builder. *Enough of a combat system to keep you interested. *A dab of resource managment. *The framework of a story/s. *Simple quest's. *3 seperate gamemodes that alter the overall game formula. *Sims-esque managment, where you can play as any individual and each has there own attributes you can level up. *Basic survival mechanics, such as stamina, health, needing food and medicine etc. But does it excel in any one area? Not at all. If I had to rate it on its individual components, it would be a rather mediocre game. However, it's the comboniation of all these aspects and mechanics that makes it unique to all other zombie games. 7 days to die has no community or friendly AI, Likewise with project Zomboid (though this is planned at somestage). L4D2, although a great game, has zero basebuilding and resource managment. Telltales The Walking Dead is a heavily story driven game with little other aspects. I could list more games, but I'm sure you get the point. It's almost as if its THE zombie survival game which mimics how a zombie apocalypse might play out, whilst remaining fun and a bit more arcadey then the other games mentioned.

Janky but fun as hell. Building a community while surviving the apocalypse scratches that zombie-sim itch perfectly.
