Our analysis

A great, super-enjoyable zombie-smashing game with fantastic, chaotic multiplayer and satisfying parkour that genuinely rewards looking where you leap. The art direction and colored lighting look excellent and the John Carpenter-style music is phenomenal, though enemies feel overly cloned and weapons degrade too quickly. Console versions have unlocked sub-30 frame rates and the PS4 lacks AF filtering, but overall it is a definite buy.

Our analysis

A parkour zombie action game that Mack calls Dead Island rehashed with parkour. The co-op is great fun, but it runs badly even on a top-end rig, the multiplayer is average and it is not worth 40 pounds. He says to pick it up in the sales.

ZP: better than Dead Island; imprecise climbing; day-night hook.

Our analysis

Dead Island improved with excellent first-person parkour; derailed by clichéd zombie plot and weak ending sequences.

    The hosts find Dying Light still very enjoyable, praising its parkour and co-op experience while noting that the controls take practice and the opening exposition is slow.

    A masterpiece zombie open-world action game that innovatively combines parkour mechanics with survival crafting. The creator emphasizes how the game's progression system becomes increasingly addictive as parkour skills improve and combat options expand.
