Dying Light

This game is fun and challenging. It actually has a decent story whereas Dead Island, while a fun zombie-killing game, lacked any sort of real story. The free-running in this game is actually surprisingly smooth and fun, and the world is FULL of infected. It makes you use the free-running a lot in order to evade death. If you liked Dead Island, you will likely never play it again once you play Dying Light. Awesome game.

Sick gameplay, awesome graphics, haunting score and a nice story.

Graphics: 9/10. Excellent graphics. Awesome animations, specially the slow motion zombie decapitations. A brutal depiction of a doomed city, both the poorer and the richer sides. The visuals are beautiful.

Gameplay: 8/10. The gameplay is the best part of this game. But unfortunately it didn't felt original. With proper upgrade, you could get a grappling hook. After then it's felt like Just Cause 2. In the beginning everything is scary. But by the end of the game we lose the sense of hostility. One thing I have to mention is the day-night circle. Now this game has a sick day-night circle. During the day the zombies aren't much problem. But if you don't find shelter before sunset, you'll learn the true meaning of panic.

Sound and musical score: 8/10. For AAA game Dying Light has fair sound effects. It's been long since I've heard a haunting musical score in a horror game.

Story, screenplay and characters: 8/10. Dying Light has a compelling story line. You play as GRE agent crane, who has landed on zombie infested Hakkan to steal some files from some sort of psycho war lord. You get to meet some very interesting characters. But unfortunately the game focuses way too much on the protagonist who is probably the weakest part of the game. So an anarchy raising villain doesn't get the proper chance to live up to his potential. Other than them, the side characters and influential npcs are really charming. Makes you feel for them. The children melts you heart. I loved the screenplay very much.

Final ratings: What starts as an excellent (9/10) game, ends as a very good (8/10) one. So my final rating is 85%.

Dying Light is a very fun zombie game. With horrifying zombies and a good human villain, this world feels dangerous. Brutality is very present in this game and adds to the survival atmosphere. Death is handled very well. Weapons, Music and Gameplay also add a lot to the game. My one issue is that the open world is not very dense with loot and that a lot of times searching will lead to nothing. Besides this one gripe, dying light is one of the most fun zombie games I've ever played.

This game is a total time killer, I'll be playing at 1:00 and next i know it's 4:30. The game is violent but when you busting zombie heads and kicking them off buildings you feel like a total badass. The story is good and the characters are cool and controls are easy to adapt to.

I have always been someone who was picky about certain games and on how good I found them. I absolutely love Survival games and zombie games and I'm a huge fan of games that take place in a post apocalyptic environment. Dying Light exceeds all of my expectations in a Survival post apocalyptic zombie game. It contains everything I looked for in a zombie game. You can search almost every building for supplies to craft and enjoy weapons of many different kinds that range from blunt weapons to rifles, you can parkour almost anything in the city and use the environment to your advantage. The gameplay mechanics are smooth, the story of Dying Light is very entertaining and the environment is so dark and terrifying which makes the gameplay all the more terrific. And the best part of it, the entire story of Dying Light can be played WITH YOUR FRIENDS in a group of up to four players. If you want a true zombie experience, this is the way to go. So grab your three closest friends and sit back and prepare for the ultimate survival challenge. With the city of Harran as your playground and the infected out for your blood, it is up to you to survive the horrors that lurk inside the city of Harran and find a cure in hopes of restoring the city to its former glory. But be warned, come nightfall, the horrors that roam the city of Harran may prove to be much more terrifying than you expect.
