You can play different characters just by switching between them during the game. Each character can level up their running, searching, sneaking, fighting, shooting. Your characters level up as you scout and perform different actions against zombies or other persons. You can find weapons, food, materials, … etc. The environment is also filled with abandoned places for you to scout and grab everything you can but make your decisions wisely as quick searching makes a lot of noise. For example: if you run, you’ll have to take a breather to get back your energy, you can’t swing your weapon constantly, the environment can hurt you and so on. All of these aspects combined with fatigue as you run or fight, makes the game a very realistic experience. It goes from recruiting new survivors, getting your supplies up and maintaining your relationship with everyone you’re confronted with. The main goal of the game is of course surviving, but this means in any way possible. This open- world zombie survival game has a very good role- playing setting as you switch between several characters. Once a game character dies, it’s permanent so you’ll better be prepared when you go out venturing in this dangerous world. Just get one thing straight, you don’t have superhuman surviving skills but you’re playing a real life person in a messed up world. There aren’t any “good” tutorials to start with, but once you start playing the game from time to time, you’ll notice most of the things are self- explanatory and you’re on your way. State of Decay brings the zombie survivor out of you in this unforgiving and yet rewarding open world zombie experience.
