Water is essential, food is slightly less essential, and bleeding out only happens sometimes but should be avoided. The brief on the previous day usually has a good mix of humor thrown into it, but it also gives important game facts such as the physical and mental state of each character as well as their hunger and thirst levels. So maybe there is a reason to grab Little Timmy to use him as fodder for the mutated creatures that now run the world. I’d like to see Little Timmy do that.Įach day will consist of reading a brief on the previous day’s happenings, allocating food and water to each survivor, and you can also send out a family member on an expedition into the wasteland to find resources and other survivors. I mean, they may be family, but a radio can establish contact with remote groups of survivors. Now it’s time to try and survive with the materials and people you grabbed, assuming you actually decided to save your family. It’s a cool concept, but it is done poorly. That means missing out on grabbing that extra can of soup, or that precious gas mask, which can get you in trouble 20 minutes later. I know this is only 60 seconds of the game, but those seconds can set the pace for a playthrough that lasts over 30 minutes. It doesn’t help that there are items placed throughout the house that serve no purpose other than to get in your way when, frankly, the movement is enough to do that on its own. The movement is even worse – it feels less like you’re moving a person and more like you’re trying to drive a car that can’t get any traction. Much of the game champions a wacky 2D art style that shows off a lot of character and makes things fun, but while gathering resources that style is replaced by 3D models that are just bland.
The resource gathering portion of this game is cool to see and I really like the idea that you can choose which items and family members to grab, like Little Timmy.
