Focusing the player on scavenging the limb-strewn remains of the former utopia of Banoi for improvised weapons and ways to survive, it centres largely on first-person, close-quarters combat that boasts a simple, raw quality too often polished away and homogenised in modern action games. The voice acting and character design is poor, and the game's appetite for awkward sensationalism is less than appealing.Īnd yet, despite all that, the game at the core of this title is particularly enjoyable. Having cast you as a holidaymaker trapped on a tourist paradise turned hell by an undead epidemic, Dead Island quickly reveals itself to be stylistically rather clumsy, lacking any kind of grace with regard to narrative or presentation. Dead Island's zombie-bashing action may have plentiful failings, but they disguise the beauty beneath its rotting carcass.
