Zombie Solitaire

💋

A simple game with zombie aesethics. Definitely one more try type of game; great to dip in and out of. Highly recommend for good casual play

Ця гра насправді непогана. Це саме те, що там сказано в назві - базовий пасьянс із картами зомбі. Ви можете придбати деякі «підсилення» в магазині за гроші, які ви можете отримати під час гри, карти, які знищать купу карт, типи зомбі тощо. У цій грі також є кілька розділів типу прихованих об’єктів/карт, але вони такі собі. Загалом, хороший солітер, але з зомбі.

Pretty vanilla solitaire with power-ups game. Definitely leans towards needing to purchase/use power-ups to complete levels, which I don't tend to favor. Also, will take some googling to get it running on newer versions of Windows.

no okej

Zombie Solitaire is a simpler version of solitaire, with various piles of cards where the objective is to remove them in a sequence where the next card needs to be a value higher or lower, regardless of suit. I like this concept, but unfortunately it was already implemented in a similar, and much better game: Faerie Solitaire, that came out 3 years before Zombie Solitaire. The biggest problem I have with this game is that it heavily relies on using wildcards. In the beginning, it’s mostly to perfect the hands, earning the maximum 3-starts, but later on even just beating the hands requires those wildcards. The game consistently gives you currency to buy them, so it’s clear the game is designed this way. And I don’t like that, using wildcards, which are supposed to be a crutch or last resource, as a main mechanic. Not only that, but you must grind gold in the earlier stages if you want to perfect every hand. That just sucks and leads to un-fun gameplay. The hands are also randomized a lot, so in a lot of cases it’s best to just restart them if they aren’t looking good in the beginning. Comparing this to Faerie Solitaire, that game was much better designed. It still had some randomness and wildcards, but most of the time I felt I was actually playing this version of solitaire, not grinding and spamming wildcards to progress. That game also had grind, but it was to collect pets, an optional system. It was also much longer, with more content, including harder challenges. A Remaster is also available and buying either version will get you the other as well. Zombie Solitaire just feels like a knockoff of Faerie Solitaire to me. If I hadn’t play that, I would probably recommend this for cheap but with a neutral rating, if possible. But considering that a much better game is available, and that to even start this game I had to run it in Windows 98 compatibility mode (really???), I just can’t recommend it. Steam Cloud also isn’t working. At least it’s a much shorter game because it wasn’t that enjoyable.

This is a very fun blend of a card game and zombies!!

Relaxation game...
