Best $10 ever spent.
This game has some utterly fantastic moments in it, that are both hilarious and strangely pleasing as you mutilate the poor population of the futuristic town,"Punchbowl City". The combat is very very simple, its usually just swiping at one enemy at a time, and finishing them off by eating their brains. But when confronted by several enemies at once, you have a range of special attacks such as the putrid area-of-effect fart attack, and throwing an explosive internal organ at your enemies (acting just like a remotely detonated grenade).
Be warned that there are a couple of downsides to the gameplay though, such as how saddening-ly short the game actually is. 'Stubbs the Zombie' can be beaten in a few hours of solid play, and since this game has very little replay value, it's not that fun after completion. The other down point to this game is the difficulty, although there are four selectable difficulty levels, there is a MASSIVE difficulty gap between the easiest mode and the one straight after it, leaving things slightly awkward for the player if they want to play through the game on the next difficulty after completing it on easy, making them have to adjust everything that they had learned on the first play through to succeed in the new mode.
The sound in 'Stubbs the Zombie' is fantastic, whether it's the stupid comments made by civilians watching as you wreak havoc upon their city, or the stomach churning sound of someone getting their brains chewed by one of your fellow zombies. The soundtrack is nothing short of original either, taking songs from what I presume are from the 50's-60's, and putting a whole new spin on them making them sound as if they were a strange modern hit, whilst being nostalgic.
The graphics are good as well, I can run it on my old to mid-range computer without any hassles, BUT for some strange reason my monitor doesn't cope with some elements in the game, meaning that i can only play 'Stubbs the Zombie' in safe mode, meaning no blood or other special effects which leaves things rather bland but still enjoyable.
So, if you're looking for a couple of nights, or a lonely day's comedic entertainment, head down to your local game store and search the bargain bin for this diamond in the rough, because this is seriously a must have for any zombie movie fan, or any gamer who prefers horror/action games.
