UnturnedUnturned is one heck of a game, though most of it is based off Minecraft. However, just because almost all of it is based off that game doesn't mean that in some cases, the game can be better. For starters, the game is free, which can make the game even more popular. The game even offers a paid package that gives the user all sorts of new features, and the package itself only costs 5 dollars. It's a really fun game and behind the legendary Minecraft, it has to be one of my favorite PC games of all time, even if the game can get a bit repetitive after a while.
GRAPHICS 8/10
In a way, the graphics are the aspect that is the least similar to Minecraft, but it is still very similar. Unlike the graphics of Minecraft, which is all blocky, the world of Unturned uses a set graphical map. There are a few aspects of the world that are blocky such as some of the structures, but other than that everything is a lot more contrsucted. In terms of the way that the graphics actualy look, I wuld have to say that it's worse than Minecraft because even though they are not blocky, there isn't as much resources to use and all of the surroundings come out as if they were only have drawn. When you see a patch of tall grass, you can tell that it's grass based on the shape and the outline, but other than that, it wouldn't really look at all like grass would. The same goes for almost everything else in the game such as the trees and other items. Overall, the graphics are pretty good considering that the game is still somewhat new and hasn't had many
updated and that the maker of the game is actually quite young. My grade for the graphics is going to be an 8 out of 10.
SOUND 7/10
First we go over the sound, which there usually is a lot of. There is sound all over the place, whether it's a zombie that jumps out of nowhere making it's weird noises or it's the sound of the gun that you use to kill them. There's even more sound all over from cars to whatever. SOme of the sounds, such as the zombies are actually really good and creepy and if you have the volume all the way up and you are playing at night, the game can actually be very scary. Next up there is the music, first off, there's a small song that plays when you first start up the game and this song lasts for about 30 seconds before it ends and is followed by silence. That's really asll there is to the music, nothing special, and because of the music and sounds combined, I am going to give this aspect of the game a 7 out of 10.
ADDICTIVENESS 10/10
When it comes to free games, this is one of the most addicitng games that you can play, and I am pretty sure that if you had to pay for this game, that it would still be just as addicting. There's just so much to do, and so many places to explore. There are two main worlds that you can choose from, one that's just a bland world with nothing but surroundings and animals, while the other is basically a whole nation with multiple abandoned towns and zombies. On the 2nd world, there are so many places for you to explore, whether it's the golf course and lighthouse, the Army base and airport, or either of the many towns and camps. There's houses to rummage through for supplies and so much to do and build, though it will take a while before you can start building stuff. In rder to build, you need to get an axe and start chopping down trees and a pickaxe for rocks, and then you need to use your experience points from zombie killing and breaking/chopping to increase your crafting skill. There are all sorts of other skills that you can raise too such as ones toboost your shooting, one for hand to hand combat, one for health and disease, one for stamina, and one for hunger and thirst. In this game, if you die but havent set up a
sleeping bag as a spawn point, you're going to have a hard time finding your stuff tht you drop, but this is the kind of game where most people would be glad to do everything all over again because it's so much fun. My overall grade for this category will be a perfect 10 out of 10.
STORY 7/10
Well, when it comes to a story, there really isn't anything. Just like when you are playing Minecraft, you can really come up with your own story and set up your goals, but that's really about it. Other than that, the plot of the game would be similar to the Hardcore more in Minecraft or maybe even 7 Days to Die, in the sense that you have to go as long as you can into the game without dying. There are all sorts of other goals that you set up to make the game more interesting such as a house that has all the required supplies such as lights or a campfire and crates and a
sleeping bag among other stuff. The entire story of the game is 100% up to you aside for the given plot of survining, so I am going to give this category a grade of 7 out of 10.
DEPTH 7/10
Honestly, there really isn't much depth, but that's mostly because of how new the game is, I feel that onc the game gets even more popular and successful that people might start demanding more stuff in the game and who knows, maybe people might start making some awesome mods if some haven't done so yet. Aside from that, there are only two worlds that you can choose from, each of which are set and the purely wildlife world is pretty bland and is just for wildlife surviving. Of course, the world with civilizations in it is a lot bigger and has so much more to do, but it's going to start looking pretty small once you have played the game for a while and eventually it's going to start restricting what you can do because you may find yourself running out of resources if you play so well that you can survive through many hours of game play. In my opinion, it's good, but I just don't feel that there's enough yet so my grade for this category is going to be a 7 out of 10.
DIFFICULTY 8
This game at times can be very hard at times, and in fact, maybe even harder than Minecraft. There are going to be times when killing a zombie might be much harder in this game than in Minecraft even if you have some sort of good weapon, and if you don't start killing zombies quickly, you won't be able to raise any of your skill points, so you will be running into challenges. The number one problem when it comes to this game is going to be your location, where you spawn will determine whether you die or not. If you spawn near a town or maybe even near one of the camps or the base and airport, or even by a car, you may find yourself able to survive, but most of the time you will spwan in the middle of nowhere with zombies already chasing you down and the only option that you will have left is suicide. Really, in my own experience from this game, I boot up the game ad spawn, and I might have to suicide 5 or 6 times before I even take a step because I know that I am not going to be able to survive wherever I spawned and I need to find a place where I have even the slightest chance of survival. Once you have a good place, just getting supplies, weapons, food, and water may be a nightmare, and all of the towns are crowded with at least a dozen zombies. As a matter of fact, there may be times where you will be running with a line of 20 or so zombies behind me. This game can be very difficult and need a perfect balance of skill, experience, and luck, and my grade for the difficulty is going to be an 8, quite possibly one of the highest difficulty grades I have ever given a game in my 52 reviews.
OVERALL 9.2/10
Like I had mentioned earlier, this is one of my all time favorite PC games and I love it. Just the fact that the game is free should be enough to stir your curiosity and pursaude you to download the game and give it a try, I can almost guarantee that it's definintly worth playing, maybe one of the best free games. I even bought the 5 dollar upgrade because I loved the game so much and I knew that a 5 dollar fee was worth it based on all of the stuff that you get, and ever since I bought the upgrade, I have been so addicted to just playing the game that i never even had a chance to check out what the upgrade has. This had been a great game for me so far and I suggest you play it. My overall grade for this game is going to be a 9.2 out of 10.
