Posting this due to my complete disappointment and the fact the game description is wrong.
90% of this game is reliant on your ability to jump using their changing mechanics. ie: One minute water saves you the next it kills you. One minute you can climb cables on towers the next jumping for them (the only obvious grapple) results in death. And this scenario goes on dozens of times within 5 hours of game play.
You could argue you must fight but the fact is fighting is futile with anything beyond the first zombies. The rest are impossible outside pure luck to fight. You're game play is entirely based on running and jumping. Also most of the quests are as well to the point you simply can not continue the game unless you are relentless and hard core about jumping games.
If you are after a true survival/scavenger/zombie game this is NOT it. This is 3D super mario brothers with a minor (at best) twist. Period.
Personally Im stuck at a spot where they have completely changed the mechanics of the game and its 100% based on jumping. Going to give it two more tries and after that request my money back. Why?
Because the description of the game is an out right lie. Had I known it was a platformer game I would have not even watched the intro video let alone bought it. I would go so far as to say that legally its false advertising because the scenes they record account for perhaps 1-3% of actual game play.
Is it worth 60? Even if you are a die hard hippity hoppity gamer, no. Maybe 20.
Also please note outside of making backups (with random failures) you have one save so you get to repeat things when mechanics change in the middle of game play and you plunge you're death constantly.
