Love this gas as is, I'm on its official discord to keep up with what's coming, Sadly with only one person making this game in his free time, updates are slow. Cat recommend this game enough, it's my go-to when I need a break from my main game The art style is unique and the world is large without being too large for a single player map. Base building is very forgiving and lets you build some awesome bases. Driving is easy, reminds me of GTA 3 in terms of control. Lots of guns to collect my favorite is the 249 SAW, takes be back to my Army days. (But with Zombies) Game customization is vast, want a playthrough without food drops? You can do that, now you have to hunt for a bit to eat. And so much more. Melee fighting is there but could be better. The game is playable, but it's more sandbox than having a story at the moment but you won't be upset about that as you make your own fun. Make this as easy or as hard to play as you want to. I play on normal setting with legendary weapons set to the rarest option.
The game is fun for a bit but lacks real depth and progression. It hasn't had an update in idk how long, feels like it's been abandoned at this point. Their are so many options in this genre of games, sinking your time or money into one that isn't actively updated (or even being worked on?) doesn't seem like a smart use of your time or money. It's really fun for awhile, but after a couple hours it falls off hard. I figured no multiplayer was a positive, it'd give the developer more time to focus on the actual game, but that hasn't been the case. It's been overshadowed by a multitude of games in the same space, that are on par, if not better than this like Project Zomboid, Plains of pain or Humanitz. I'd have to give this a NO atm because it's starting to feel more an more like a cash grab with the lack of updates and development. If the dev cycle ever picks back up, it'd be worth looking into because it has potential, it's just not utilizing any of it.
Good game for a solo player However, as many others have said, the game is no longer being updated - But there is a carbon copy coming out soon called 'not dead yet' which already has co-op built into it, so i think i'm gonna try that instead.

The game is good, but online servers would make it peak.
Games pretty good but not enough updates to have long playtime
I bought this game about 6–7 months ago, and honestly, it’s such a fcking good game. The game is only 1.8 GB in size, and it runs really well. It’s not like other AAA studio games that are 80+ GB and buggy as ♥♥♥♥. Sure, this game has some bugs too, but they dont have a big inpact on gamequality. To be honest, the money I spent on this game was totally worth it. I can only recommend this game to everyone. It’s a mix between SCUM and DayZ, but in a comic-book style. Love it.
I got SurrounDead for cheap during the Summer Sale and went in with low expectations, was pleasantly surprised it's largely enjoyable. Albeit, a little bare bones. The art style is simple but has charm, the exploration is nice, the map has a good size with solid amount of POIs, decent selection of guns and armors and so on. I really liked how you could tow functional vehicles and that they are somewhat rare, I'd tow everything I'd stumble apon back to my base and ended up with a parking lot of different trucks and buggys/emergency vehicles. The basebuidling is pretty limited but there's enough to keep you busy for awhile. Oddly enough I think the weather and storm system is probably the strongest part of this game, when you get trapped in a thunder storm while clearing out some military base in the middle of the night, it's a cool vibe. Rain actually makes puddles which is neat and the fog effect is pretty spooky. The audio is the main aspect I had issues with, the game is just way too quiet, had to crank the volume past 130% to hear zombies and footsteps but then something else like wolves or random helicopter event would blow my ears up, balance is all over the place. There's also a lack of audio for actions like lockpicking and most cars have the same sound, guns and weather are okayish though. For a single player game there's virutally no quests or main story type of deal, so it's mostly just a sandbox which is fine but without any pvp or coop feels kinda empty and repetitive at times. There's also not much for enemy variety pretty basic. Events and zombies also reset when you load/resume a save. So if you have to go handle something IRL and come back that event will be gone and zombies you cleared respawned, not a huge fan of that. Performance wise it's mostly great , had some random minor fps drops during bandit events sometimes, it supports Ultrawide and doesn't rely on upscaling and whatnot runs good native, no crashing or stuttering, love to see it. If you like open world zombie games it holds it own, nothing groundbreaking honestly but it's great value and has more good moments than bad. 7.5/10
abandoned, Ill take back my downvote if the game actually starts getting updates again
I absolutley love this game. I haven't had any bugs or issues so far. The only thing I long for is a Multiplayer element and con.troller support. Once those are added this is a 9-10 game all day.
