ZombiU review: Anarchy in the U.K.
Keep track of all of Joystiq’s Wii U launch coverage on our Wii U hub page! I have twelve pistol bullets left, one crossbow bolt, a Molotov cocktail and about half a dozen zombies between me and freedom. I’ve spent the last half hour on an undead killing spree, emptying most of my guns and exhausting my medical supplies. I’ve become a fairly confident zombie slayer over the last few days, but rarely have I come across this many at once, especially in close quarters. They’re just milling about on the other side of an open door. I know that because I can spot their pings on my radar.
There’s no telling what kind of zombies are over there though. Run of the mill civilians? The Molotov would make quick work of them. But what if there are undead cops, decked out in bullet-proof, fire-resistant riot gear? I shuffle through my backpack, glancing away from the television and toward the Wii U’s gamepad in order to do so – they haven’t spotted me, so I feel relatively safe rooting through my supplies.
After some soul searching, I decide my aim – and certainly my nerves – just aren’t good enough. I’m betting on the Molotov. I take a deep breath, listening to it hiss through my teeth, and step through the door. This is moment to moment survival. This is ZombiU.
