This game is GTA but with a lot of zombies. You are able to play the main story missions, side missions, or no missions and just explore the island maps.There are tons of weapons and mods throughout the entire game.
I think the way the health system works made the game a bit too easy. For example, if you died in the middle of a mission say you were killed by a "thug" zombie, when you "recovered" you can pick up right where you left off instead of having to restart the entire mission.
Overall the game was great.
What's great about it: Open world, big map, graphics
