The Last Stand: Dead Zone

On Facebook Now
    Con Artist games has taken a huge step forward in their perspective market and by huge I mean awesome. So a huge step could be taken to mean a lot of things so what I mean is, as in this is a bigger direction monetarily looks like Con Artist is wanting to get a little bit of that Zynga buzz. Con Artist has stepped up a little bit and created a Facebook game that is the zombie version of the hit game Fallout sounds a lot like it too. I just started playing this but since I know what to expect then I can already tell what the game is about. While that may be a bummer for me, for those of you that have never played that game can believe that this game is fun! But, let me warn you this game isn't for everyone. This game is a time based role playing game (TBRPG) and it is set to real time not to a game time. So if you like the speed of action or adventure games then it may not be your cup of tea but either way it is fun to kill zombies no matter how you do it.
    You start out the game with a building, a bunch of junk sitting around and a beat up old car that needs fuel to use and since this is an apocalyptic game, there is no one making fuel so when you find it, it's more precious than gold. You must create a base in and around the building you have and the overall goal is to make this area self sustainable. You build vegetable gardens, water collection tanks, and storage for all of the items you find, make, or need to hold all excesses. Now while it makes sense to do certain things like building a vegetable garden and water collection tank but there is a certain strategy that you must use when using up your resources because the point of the game is to survive on what little you can find or get lucky to find. As you build up your little slice of looters paradise, a random survivor will come and join you. It may suck at first because then you have to share what little you have and work harder to support both people, or in other words a little more like real life itself. So your goal in this game is to get high enough level and have enough party members to go out and hunt the zombies that have plagued the world and are on the brink of successfully making the human race extinct. How long can you last? How large can you grow your new city?
