Last Day on Earth: Survival

Last Day on Earth: Survival is the latest game by developer Kefir!, a Russian based corporation that has developed popular games such as Metro 2033, Russian Prison Mafia, and Eastern Front. The game allows players to test their ability to cope in a world devastated by a pandemic. Beginning with nothing but a pair of boxers, you will be tasked with gathering whatever may be necessary for survival in a world infested with zombies. You are tasked with collecting clothing, weaponry, food, and shelter. 

Graphics

Like its engaging gameplay, the visual presentation in Last Day on Earth: Survival is equally outstanding. The game uses 3D graphics to display the game content. As a defense game, these attributes make it easy for new gamers to find their way within the gameplay. Also, quality graphics make the game more interesting. This game variety requires artificial intelligence and graphics, features that have contributed to the increase in the game’s fidelity.

Gameplay

One of the crucial aspects of this game would be combat. For you to survive while within your base or outdoors exploring, you will need to carry out substantial slaughtering. The game features a diverse array of adversaries, each with their own distinct powers and specific strategies required to defeat them.

At the initial stages of the game, you will have the ability to craft first row items, including a wooden spear. This will help with around ten damage, and you must be in close range for it to be effective. However, as you continue with advanced stages of the game, you’ll access more weapons, including axes, bows, and an array of guns. 

A critical game mechanic currently in this game is the sneak feature. By pressing an icon at the bottom right section of the game interface, you will enter the sneak mode. Also, you will be able to sneak behind attackers and strike them with double damage. The impressive combat system feels quite organic.  

Controls

You can directly control the character using virtual buttons and a D-pad, browsing through the settings in real-time and attacking the bad guys and interacting with objects. To make clothes, tools, or shelter, you have to acquire the raw materials that are listed on every blueprint. To find all these, you need to use the creation points that you get as you go up the levels. Having more elaborate projects will require more experience in extracting materials and beating creatures.

Lasting Appeal

Last Day on Earth has a post-apocalyptic setting that the developer has pulled off with ultimate perfection. You will experience realistic and lively character designs as you encounter zombies that look frightening. The game's textures are richly detailed, rendering the environment visually pleasing. Overall, the graphics are impressive, elevating it to an exceptional survival game that captivates players for extended periods.

The Verdict

"Last Day on Earth: Survival" offers an engaging and entertaining gaming experience that masterfully balances challenge with fun. The only improvement that would make the game even better may be the inclusion of a quick action button for players to put food or medkits to be used during the intense fighting with the zombies. It is hard to open the item tab to find medkits or food in a crunch.
