Fort Zombie is a focused-scope, casual RPG title in which the game world revolves around a single building – your fort – and the mission specific chunks of the small town that surrounds it. Instead of a major city or a vast countryside, player’s focus their efforts on building up a single structure, finding and training survivors, and venturing out into town looking for supplies.
While a terrific game in theory, including a wide range of play styles, the ability to build defenses and manage defense teams, the game crumbles during execution. It has everything I have ever wanted in a zombie game, but falls apart at the seams.
AI partners are needed to defend your base, but their intelligence is simply so poor it becomes game-breakingly bad. And in general, interfaces and cameras are awkward.
There's certainly some nuggets of joy hidden beneath the aggravation, but I'd suggest staying away.
