State of Decay – Xbox 360 Review

As a video game Undead Labs State of Decay, is not the most difficult one you will ever play. In fact, in many ways it is situations that you create for yourself and how you approach the game that will decide how hard – or easy – it is and that is definitely one of the game’s strengths.

With a pretty generous 8 square km of open world at your disposal, filled with numerous homes, shops, restaurants and warehouses to rummage through, you’ll never be at a loss for something to do or places to explore. Many will look at such a hefty slice of a world map, filled with small towns and homesteads and think ‘what’s the point?’, but you’ll quickly discover that the sole point of State of Decay is survival.

Montague’s Mount – PC Review

Coming from one-man team, Matt Clifton, at Polypusher Studios Montague’s Mount is referred to on the official game site as “a first person psychological roller-coaster ride… “. I would certainly concur that the game brings the psychological elements of gaming to the fore, the speed of the game’s protagonist could hardly be compared to that of a ‘roller-coaster ride’.

A short trip around a small portion of the island can take – what feels like – forever, as your stranded, ship-wrecked main character stumbles and ambles around beaches, fields and seemingly uninhabited buildings.
