Early access game review

Constructive Criticism: The UI needs work. The buttons are way too small and need to be bigger for a more fluid experience. It's also hard to manage items. This heavily impacted my attention in the game as I had to take more than a few moments to navigate the UI, leaving my character defenseless. The UI itself shouldn't have to factor into my chances of survival.
Positive points: This is the single most accurate zombie apocalypse game i have EVER played. I haven't found a zombie game that can compare to this yet. I've always wanted a survival horror zombie game rather than an action horror one but I don't think major game developers have truly realized the market for survival horror yet (aside from the creators of I Am Alive and Walking Dead). Also, I like that the graphics are not that great because the game leaves more to the imagination and I'm not overly intimidated by the zombies.
What I'd like to see added: As a female player, I would like to have the option of playing as a female. Also, I think a huge part of any apocalypse will need sensitive social interactions that could mean life or death later. (Like the Walking Dead and Dead State) Although, I'm not counting on that ever happening considering the focus of the game is more on solo survival. However, a way of adding this element so that it fits the game would be to add bandits that collaborate together. I know that there are already bandits, but there are no gangs. It would be fun to kill gangs for resources, lead zombies to them, or defend my fort from them.
