THE LAST STAND 8/10




BY Flashmaster Funk
The first game is a little number called the last stand. In this little gem you are the survivor of the zombie attack and you have built a shelter that you have to defend from a zombie attack. It was designed by can artists production and armored games. I would have to give this game an 8/10. The only problem with it is that there is no real way to gauge you success through the game and a little hard to tell if you are moving forward or backward. The over all feel of the game is right on. The intro menu is scary as hell and the game play almost feels like a zombie flick.
The game play is pretty standard. You move with WASD and you have a gun that you use to waste zombies left and right with the click of your mouse. This comes in handy when protecting you shelter at night. However, the zombie deaths do leave something to be desired. When you are not protecting humanity’s last hope for survival you can divide you day up repairing your shelter, looking for more weapons, or looking for other survivors. It takes a while to find other weapons and you run the possibility of losing others that have “saved” when you go out searching which also add to the weaksauce factor of the last stand, that and there is no scoring. Just number of days that you stay alive, but in the end when you do die you get you guts ripped out by a zombie and feast fallows soon after. Of you manage to survive 20 days the military comes in and saves you. if you get far enough may I suggest using the hunting rifle has your primary weapon with the chainsaw as a backup. With the hunting rifle you can cap zombies with one shot and if your wall gets over run you can use the chainsaw to clean them off . You should play this game for nothing else but the menu at the beginning and your death by zombie.
All in all if you are looking to 5min+ at work invest in this game. It is a solid play and will entertain any zombie fan. This bad boy gets an 8/10 and is better than surfing for porn. This lovely gem of awesomeness can be found at:
