I haven’t been playing this game for very long, but I’ve really enjoyed it so far. It is very complex, with all the menus within menus, strange systems, and more. I like its complexity, though. It makes for a very interesting game.
So yeah, that’s all I’ve got for now.

Oh my god this game is fantastic xD One time, my whole city became zombies (Necromancer) and one child was still alived. He ran into the zombie horde and killed seven of them with a butter knife before he died.
