Zombie Night Terror
Zombie Night Terror can be summarized in two game titles: Lemmings and Left 4 Dead. And yet it manages to be its own thing.
For once, the aim is not to prevent the apocalypse but to make sure it happens. In order to do so, the player guides a horde of zombies that walk in a straight line (Lemmings) by giving them specialized Zombie powers (Left 4 Dead).
Lemmings had a very cool concept and it was a gaming landmark, but it did not exactly expand into a fruitful genre. The reason why is that the core gameplay loop ended up being quite repetitive after a while, because on one hand only a select few Lemmings acquired a power that allowed them to survive, and on the other hand the higher difficulty levels ended up being a tedious chore of bridge building.

If you want the pros and cons skip ahead, but first I want to address some of the complaints I’ve seen about this game (and why you should ignore them).
“Difficulty ramps up too quickly” - Now there are definitely some levels that are significantly harder than the ones before it, but isn’t that kind of what you want out of a game? You might fail a level the first or second playthrough, but then you squeak out a win, and that’s much more satisfying than just blazing through every level. Some of the bonus challenges are very hard, but it’s none of them are required to actually win the game.

Swarm the City: Zombie Evolved
I have mixed feelings about this game. While I enjoy’d the gameplay, the game is not completely finished. There is a final chapter that doesn’t unlock, and it really bums you out. Like wtf? It leaves you feeling like you haven’t really beat the game. There’s no congratulation, no finally.. You’re left unable to get legendary parts for upgrades, cause they’re locked behind unreachable levels I guess..? I dunno. It’s rude to charge $15 for a game that isn’t even finished.
For now I am down voting because that is rude on the devs part to release an unfinished game. If the game is finished I will likely change my rating.

I just kept repeating the process of summoning and dying!!! It’s a lot of fun
At the beginning, the game is kinda easy, but it gets hard once you reach chapter 3, and that’s where strategy is needed. Strategy matters a lot, you have to actually think before you start taking actions. It might still be possible that you keep dying unless you are a hardcore rts player.
Even that, Swarm the City is still good for rts starters. The pause function in the game will make it easier for those new rts players to take a break and think about the next move.

So many unsuspected additions to the launch on Steam and I love it, amazing launch
This game still blows me away, I missed it a lot. Played it years ago as a kid on my old PC with the original cd that I still have buried around somewhere. Even got a digital copy on my Xbox 360
I’ve got a lot of love for this game, the soundtrack, just everything
The game plays well and looks just as good if not a little better than it did, supports my resolution just fine as well

Prepare yourself Punchbowl
Stubbs the Zombie was one of those games that I always wanted to play but never had the opportunity to. When it was on original consoles I didn’t have them. When it launched on steam it wasn’t on my radar due to overall negative reception. For a while there you couldn’t play this one unless you either emulated it, or shelled out hundreds for a copy. With the re-release I finally got a chance to play this game after fifteen years. The game is not without flaws and I’ll get into those below, but there is still a phenomenal feeling of playing a game that felt like a missed experience in your life.
