Very easy to get into. Fantastic that it is free. Very old school Fire Emblem inspired and I appreciate that.
This little free indie game delivers a fire elblem-like experience better than other similar games with a budget. The writting it´s a little too emo for my taste, though.
[h1]Before I played Walk with the Living, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

The speed of valuable gameplay information barraging players is only exceeded by the tedious nature of double clicking various tiles and drop-down menus for every action. With no guides available it requires direct contact with the creator on the forum to discover basics like moving and attack in combat. I cannot imagine the rest of the game gets any stronger past this point
A very good fe esque fan game. Somewhat original story ( by fe standards) good characthers, good, good maps and its free. Also lots of gay characters for those who care about but even if you don't this is one of the better fe likes out there. Hard mode packs a challenge but normal mode isn't too crazy
Me duele darle un negativo a un juego gratuito, pero el juego tiene muchos bugs.

aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh game good
It's a great game for people who are fans of strategy RPGs. The story is compelling, and the characters are interesting. I also like how once you die YOU DIE. However the game keeps crashing on me for unknown reason. If this product wasn't free I would not recommend this. You get what you pay for, but I have purchased the sequel. Hoping it doesn't crash on me.
Fun game! Like many have said, the controls are really confusing, but once you get past that, it's all good. They need to remap the Exit key though. I accidentally closed the game many times by pressing ESC. In order to fix that, I altered the game.ini file and replaced ESC w/ F8. Problem solved. Anyhow, definitely worth your time, especially for a free game. Thank you devs.
