Review How to Survive (Wii U eShop)
Island-hopping and head-popping
Zombies used to be so underground, man. Years ago the very mention of these rotted ghouls would have people scratching their heads in blissful ignorance, but now they’re shuffling, walking and running around like they own the place. The genre has been utterly exhausted to the point where now their inclusion in media...

I wonder if this game is any good..it looks promising but 505 games has made/published so much shovelware I'm hesitant about purchasing it before any review is up.
@AyeHaley I took the plunge so far its not to bad. The humor is very borderlands. Looks good the gamepad display could be larger. (or im getting old & blind). I agree with you about 505 games.If it was under £10 then go for it.
But if you like the top down style of game then go for it has coop play & game pad play as well. Do think its a bit of cheek at £13 to then have dlc as well.
But I have to say I am enjoying it.
Aww, no review?
@Anguspuss Thanks for your reply! I'll definitely consider it now. Did you finish it yet? How long was your playthrough of the game? If its less than 4-5 hrs I think I'll wait till it drops in price. (Even though I got eShop cash to burn, there isn't a lot on the Wii U eShop I don't already have or want. I hope we get Guacamelee, Steamworld Dig and Shovel Knight in Europe asap.)
Nothing worthwhile on the retail side till Hyrule Warriors in September so, bring it on indie/eShop games!
ive played 3 hours so far but struggled with time this past month. Playable on the gamepad. Hyrule warriors is my game of the year. Waiting to see whats new in steam world dig as I finished it on the 3ds & was me fav e shop game on the 3ds
