Luckily you can buy (or earn) various weapons and gear to help you and each weapon feels like a brand new class.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
59 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Absolutely love this game... its brutal difficulty, the ability to make it even harder through the Apocalypse system, and D&D character class building makes an addictive game loop.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
It's conceptually similar to Hades in that you're killing hordes of demons (zombies?) to an awesome metal soundtrack.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I've always wanted a tactical rpg that involves larger numbers of enemies, HQ buildout and defense, deep character customization, and more that this game does well.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
32 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The story is fairly original and has a few twists and turns that keep things moving along.
