Zombies everywhere! You must have played many games experiencing poorly animated zombies. Considering the fact that zombie games themselves are thrilling and full of excitement, the orthodox graphics and the conventional gameplay has damaged the game. Dead Island is a complete pack of exhilaration and thrill.
The game is a first person zombie player game developed by Techland and published by Deep Silver. The game adds a unique flavor to the conventional ‘kill the beast’ concept. The player is not facilitated with high-tech weapons; instead the player is bound to use knives, axes and other small weapons along with logic to kill the beast.
Storyline
The story of the game finds heart in an island named Banoi in Papua New Guinea. The place is an exotic and tropical paradise for tourists. The unique concept that the player gets involved in a fight against the deadly zombies in such an enthralling environment is of great concern. The player initially starts as a simple zombie killing tourist but gets facilitated along with the course of the game. The player statistics rely on a skill tree. The tree is a representation of the overall capability of the player. The player gets access to new resources as he progresses.
Gameplay
The gameplay is indeed new; position the player in a beautiful tropical place with an exotic atmosphere and surround the situation with furious killing beasts. The game involves hand to hand warfare with human killing beasts. The player is armed with broomsticks, knives, axes, pipes and bats to kill these deadly creatures. The damage to the zombies depends upon the ability level and the weapon in hand.
The important thing to keep in mind is that the only defense that you initially have is these broomsticks, axes, knives, etc. Although, you would see the gameplay as an orthodox killing game mode, the game takes sharp turns as it progresses. The developers have indeed provoked a new idea and have contributed a lot to the new meaning of Zombie game.
Graphics
Graphics are the backbone of the game. The excitement that the player feels is a result of such extreme graphics. The characters of the game are designed according to the maps. The overall look of the character resembles the tropical island. The game has places that are astonishing to see.
You will get to see deep aqua water, tropical coconut trees, and huts made of trees. There are beautiful drinking places but everything is in the vicinity of the zombies.
Conclusion
Without doubt the game follows the same genre of zombie killing, but the flavor of a beautiful island adds to the essence of the game. The developers have put in a lot of effort with the graphics to portray the new concept of Zombie killing. The game may offer one of the most beautiful settings, but what’s certain, is that it’s not going to look that way when you have finished beating and battering those zombies! The game will be available in September this year, and we expect it to be a big hit.
