Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Ray’s past or memory flash-backs are more or less the basis of the story, where you find out who Ray was hanging out with while alive, and the friction that his group of friends had with another group led by a guy named Chaz.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
But the gameplay during these sequences is pretty much just to avoid Chaz’s goons in the early stages, try not to be seen by scouts in Ray’s camp recollection, and a few mini-games.

I enjoyed playing Ray’s The Dead; the graphics are excellent and the story is brilliantly put-together with plenty of humour.

Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
In terms of the controls, you can play the game with your mouse and keyboard, but I strongly recommend using a gamepad for this game.
