Steam review snapshots
Pretty complex too, lots of stuff to build, involves skills you can upgrade, places to explore and zombis to SMASH.Definitely buy if you miss the STALKER games, or more specifically, their dense foreboding atmosphere.I'd recommend it to those who are interested in crafting and having hunger meters and all of that.So far I haven't had any crashes or major issues so it seems fairly good stability wise.Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by dark, tense, survival.
