Evil Dead The Game: Review

We all know how scary and intense it is to play “Evil Dead the Game.” The context of this game is entirely different from other adventure games; here, you will collect pages of Necronomicon from defeating the demons, and this is just one part of the game. Read till the end to learn more details about the game.

It offers multiplayer mode as well as single-player mode. In multiplayer mode, you can play with friends, and the good news for fans is that it supports cross-play features.

In the single-player mode, you can clear different types of missions. You also have options to choose between survivor and demon campaigns. Each mission will take a minimum of 30 minutes to 45 minutes.

Which Side are you on, Survivors or Demons?

At the beginning of the game, you have two races to choose from, either a human or a demon. The choice is yours, and if you ask me, I suggest you try both campaigns (survivors and demons) because you will have a different kind of experience.

You might think demons possess different abilities, which will be more fun. After playing once or twice, your perspective will be changed for sure.

Should I Choose Survivor Campaigns?

You are in an apocalypse world where the whole world is filled with zombies and demons, and only four survivors are left such as Kelly Maxwell, Pablo Simon Bolivar, Annie Knowby, and Lord Arthur.

You can choose either character from the names mentioned above. Your job is to kill zombies and defeat Kandarian Demon. It would be best to remember that you must close all the portals while fighting these zombies and Kandarian demons.

To preserve the balance between demons and humans, we introduced 25 different sorts of weapons this time.

To fight the dark ones that are guarding the Book of Dead, you must first collect pages of the Necronomicon and then find the Kandarian dagger. As you go, you will be able to uncover 13 survivors, each with a different type of extraordinary power.

In the survivor campaign, you can pick from four other classes: “Leaders,” who lead the team; “Warriors,” who are recognized for their combat skills; “Hunters,” who are known for carrying firearms or other long-range weaponry; and “Supports,” who are known for creating shields and healing ability. Spirit points are utilized as currency to develop your skills in this game.

Should I Choose Demon Campaigns?

The Demon campaign is enjoyable but comparatively more effortless than the survivor campaigns. There are three types of classes: “Warlords” can cause direct damage to survivors, Necromancers can summon skeletons, and Puppeteers can possess anything, such as a vehicle, survivors, trees, etc.

In this campaign, you can unlock boss characters, such as Henrietta, Eligos, and Evil Ash.

The fun part is killing or stopping survivors from completing their mission. One thing that I noticed after choosing the demon character while running from one place to another place is that it feels like you are flying on the ground.

Does it sound cool?

Evil Dead Gameplay

It’s an open-world game so that you can explore and collect resources from various places, such as crash airplane sites, abandoned homes, convenience stores, etc.

The gameplay is enjoyable, and I love playing zombies or hacking off their heads with a chainsaw. Still, developers should add some skills because whenever you use a weapon (such as a bat or ax) to kill zombies, you will notice that they simply swing the weapon like a newbie, which looks a little lame.

Sometimes, it’s annoying because you will fight many zombies, demons, and trees while traveling through the jungle. At that time, if your health bar is decreased and you are dead, then everything will be over. (It’s a friendly reminder: don’t ignore the fear meter because you don’t want to be possessed by Kandarian Demon.

If your meter is rising, then stick with team members.) It will start from the mission starting point, so be careful; for survivors, sticking together is the key to clearing each mission.

It is fun to be a demon, and there are many ways to hunt survivors. You can possess survivors, trees, zombies, and cars. Otherwise, different types of abilities can be used to eliminate these survivors. My favorite part is to have a vehicle, throw it toward survivors, blast it, possess a tree, and then hunt it.

Doesn’t it sound fun?
