Outbreak: The New Nightmare
Outbreak The New Nightmare is a Resident Evil based zombie game where the players will play as survivors trying to fight for their lives against the zombie threat. This is a 4 player co-op game and its all about helping eachother because if you die just once in a match you can’t respawn so you need to be careful on what way you fight the zombies. This game is just like Resident Evil because the game uses camera angles, an inventory system and a health system which is described as Fine, Warning, Caution, Poison or Danger.

31/07/17 UPDATE: Forest Mission FAITH added along with an Onslaught Mode for the Forest Map and new experiments mode COUNTDOWN. In FAITH you must search around for items to repair a car to escape the mission. In COUNTDOWN you must complete the mission within a set amount of time, killing zombies will add to the countdown timer but healing yourself will reduce the timer. Explosive barrels added. Forest is much smaller level than Office but makes a nice change and is much more open and atmospheric. In the FAITH mission a few puzzles have been included that must be solved in order to progress. Hopefully we will see more and more of these puzzles in future levels. The game is coming along very nicely.

Monstrum 2
Monstrum 2 is a 4v1 multiplayer only horror game where you either play as one of (currently) 3 monsters and hunt down prisoners or one of a bunch of prisoners that has to survive on a randomly generated sea fortress. The goal of the prisoners is to activate fuseboxes which need puzzles completed to be activated. Some need items, some a code, some need keycards or are blocked by something that you need to destroy or push/pull. After that they need to repair their escape vehicle, either submarine or helicopter, and then reach them before getting caught by the monster.

TL;DR at bottom.
I cannot in good faith recommend Monstrum 2 at this time. As much as I want to give this game a positive review, there are simply too many glaring issues to warrant recommending the game in it’s current state. If you read some of the other reviews and feedback people have given, you can get a good idea of what it’s like to play right now and admittedly, while I do occasionally have some fun with the game, I find myself quickly losing interest and becoming frustrated.
If you get past the fact that you are going to have to ask others in the JunkFish discord to even find enough players to play a game, you are quickly going to realise that the balance between the prisoners trying to escape and the monsters hunting you down, pretty much doesn’t exist. If the monster even has a slight idea of what they are doing, in most runs, unless the prisoners are equally as good, if not better, you are going to get absolutely destroyed. Combine this with the fact that there are still so many bugs (especially with the audio) that have existed since the launch of Early Access, you are going to have to do everything your power to convince yourself that this is a good experience.

Snowstorm of despair
In this game you have to survive in a severe winter, while waiting for salvation.
Survive in a snowstorm
You and your team need to keep the flame in the fireplace. Look for firewood and fuel the flame or you will have to put it in again.
Cooperation or betrayal?
Only you can decide which side to choose. Will you work with your team or betray them when you have a chance? Maybe, you are a good orator and want to build a good trustworthy team? Or do you prefer to create tension and distrust? Anyway, it is you who makes the final decision.
Features of survival
Appearing in a cosy home with your unlucky teammates, you have to find a way out and collect wood for the fireplace to get warm (you don’t want to freeze to death, do you?). Also, you’ll come across some useful items such as food and additional clothes. But make sure that you’re not lost while searching the way to other houses.
What is hiding in the forest?
Yes, there are “human-monsters”, but also there are ghosts of darkness, which are also dangerous. You thought it would be easy, didn’t you?

A Confusing Attempt at Coop Horror
I look all over Steam for random / unknown Steam games to play. This was one of the chosen titles this week! If you’d rather watch than read, you can do so here:

[Thoughts and First Impressions]
I love coop games. It’s so nice to sit down with someone you like (or hate, depending on the game) and play a game where you have to work together to solve puzzles and get to your goal. It’s always fun, even when the game isn’t necessarily great if the puzzles are good then you can forgive a lot and get through it. This game is not that case. This game is a case of a neat idea that just failed on the execution.

Dead by Daylight
There’s a lot to like and dislike in Dead by Daylight, especially dislike according to many, very vocal players. And yet, being the only truly successful exponent of the genre it “keeps getting away with it,” as some would put it.
This “review” is not going to cover the reasons why as one can find enough documentation online, making my little write-up essentially useless and totally-not-an-excuse to post a review for the Steam Awards event. Whoops!
But, briefly, DbD is as fun and rewarding as it can be miserable and frustrating. Be patient, don’t take it too seriously, and bring some friends (imaginary ones if you’re playing the role of killer).

The current state of the game makes it hard to recommend this game to others. There’s a huge influx of hackers/cheaters that can completely ruin a match by their existence. There’s a current issue where people can get your IP from DBD and use it to DDoS you or even worse SWAT you. Neither of these issues have even been addressed by the devs and there’s no telling when they will be fixed.
The devs also have very questionable balancing decisions since they focus too hard on creating a perfect average of 2 kills & 2 escapes. As a result, at a certain point your personal skill stops to be the deciding factor and it comes down to many of the rng spawns on the map.

DEVOUR
I can’t believe this game is only $4.99 still. I got this for me and two friends and we play it occasionally but for several hours every time. Might be the best $15 I ever spent.

Fun game provides with good electroshock therapy, sometimes annoying spiders steal your eggs, but it’s okay because you can hide in the closet and still die. Sadly I don’t really like killing goats

Dying Light
I recommend this for the gameplay, not for the abysmal story.
The mechanics are fun and really build on itself. You go from jumping on cars and climbing up balconies, to freerunning across the city, jumping from dangerous heights and zipping around with a grappling hook.
While weapons degrade kinda fast at first, it is to be expected. And they give you plenty of chances to find mods and better stuff.
Leveling system is a drag. While combat and survivor level pretty quickly, even with using tricks to raise agility it is slow.

Best Zombie game in history. from the great story to great combat and amazing parkour mechanics and animations, and the amazing Grappling hook, Everything is awesome and it’s still getting new content to this day. character development and cut-scenes are amazing. only grudge i have is multiplayer characters are the same models, but still can be changed with different skins which thank god it exists.
you won’t find any other game that forces you climb buildings and run for your life while hordes of zombies are on your tail and try to flank you with every opportunity they get.
