RPGM - Zombie's Retreat 2: Gridlocked [v0.25.1 Beta] [Siren's Domain]

Zombie's Retreat 2 is shaping up to be even better than the first!

The game offers in my opinion some of the best CG and Artwork available right now. It has a pretty basic management aspect that has been expanded since the first game, allowing you to build up a settlement. Collecting food and water can be a bit tedious at first but quickly becomes easy. The characters are decently fleshed out and interesting. The only thing I wish is that there was a way to go through dialogue a bit faster.

Otherwise, I recommend this game because it is likely to continue to receive a lot of attention and development. The developer has completed 3 games before this one and has never been the type to milk a game beyond its time. In just one year a lot has been added and I'm excited to see where the game will be in the future.

Edit: It looks like dev has implemented a cheat mode now. I have not replayed but out of good faith I am going to increase my rating from 2 to 3 stars. See below review for details.

Conflicted review; I never reviewed the first due to similar feelings. This game has big strengths but it also has some weaknesses as well. I would give the original 4 stars, and so I would give this one 3 stars, because it is exactly the same as the original in every way except the characters/story. The dev has not improved any of the things that detracted from the original title. However, the only reason the original would have gotten 4 stars is because some kind soul developed a cheat mod for it, making the gameplay tolerable. This does not have that, and so... yeah, it may seem harsh, but the gameplay in these two titles is among the worst you'll find. The rest of this review applies to both games.

First off, if you don't like larger-than-life tits and typical boy fucking his female family setting, you are fucking up by even being here lol. The game is set in a dystopian future setting where you are the only male surviving an event of unknown magnitude. All you know is that every other male in your city is a sex crazed zombie capable of corrupting women with a touch. You must protect your women. You must breed your women. You must.. feed? your women?

Yes. While the primary focus of this game may be progressing your sexual relationships with every living organism with a vagina, the main avenue you go about doing that is by getting items (like food) from select points in your environment to share with them. You MUST have enough food and water or you insta lose. Other items come along too. What this means is, (basically) every in-game day, you will repeat the same monotonous task of getting one of your companions to accompany you painstakingly traveling from every resource farming point on the map. Hopefully you find that one unique item that you need. If not, I'll see you do the grocery store run again the next day.

If it's not clear already, the "gameplay" of this game is trash. Dev has mixed fetch quests and RNG together, what a fucking concept lmao. Thankfully the RNG isn't too bad, but never in my life would I have gone with that myself. I suppose there are worse H games out there in this regard, but this one is definitely at the bottom. Not only are the fetch quests common, but most of them have no real point beyond just allowing you to not get a game over.

What is good about the game is the art and incest content. It's among the best.

So yeah. 4 stars if you can cheat the gameplay (-1) and don't have the "been there done that" mentality (-1). Neither of those apply to me so it gets 2 stars. Constructive criticism to the dev in order to save his game without completely restructuring it? More and faster early-game resource generators. The farm is great. Make it cost 1/4 of what it does. And add a similar source for water, wood, metal, etc. All cheap. And tell the player they're stupid if they don't immediately go for those things. This allows you to keep some semblance of "gameplay" without torturing the player for the entire experience.

The game is nice due to the experience of the programmers and the graphics animators thanks to siren of course and his fellow colleagues. update doesn't take much time and the game is working seemingly with no bugs so far.

I really enjoyed the first game, great story as well as great animation and visuals. This looks like more of the same, which I'm all for. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing this full release, but I'll enjoy every update all the way.

Same issues as the previous game. The animations and art are great, but the angles of the animation are absolute dogshit. Can't see anything, and its at a terrible angle. The last game had this issue as well, but not in the beginning. I really hope this game doesn't end up the same.

Loving it
Starting off really good and the graphics are off the charts
Some are complaining about the plot but honestly you shouldn't expect an entire plot in a pron game.
Overal:
Girls - Hot
Gameplay - Cool

Love it

I dont know why this thread isn't 5 stars! its fun to play the game itself, survival and buying upgrades and stuff. Not many games you can actually enjoy the gameplay as well as the normal "good "stuff

I didn't knew of siren's domain actually working on Zombie's Retreat 2 and i thought that one game would wrap it up but i got this thread highlighted on the main forum page and i couldn't believe it when i clicked it!

I played it til end of content and i must say the scarlett ann's art its an lovely factor to see in any game for me <3! i really like how this 2nd game turns out to be in the matter of scenario, characters and of course their relationship with the MC which is a core for many for the ultimate RPG immersion !

As a siren's fan of TOP and Family chores this def its going to have the same uprising potential as the first title so totally recommended to play if you're into straight big womans and a few femdom which is nice <3

i already have a great feeling about the game. The art style takes getting used to but you"ll come to love it as i did.
the game before his one also had a good story so i have high hopes for this one.

This is a review of the very first preview build. It's got the same nice fundamentals as the previous game, and this gives me reassurance that the game will be a nice continuation of the first, even if the content is lacking right now. Regarding the content, the creator has stated multiple times that the first build is very light, but it is more to just get it out there.

Review for v0.1.0

I'll start off with the only positive thing: the art. The artist has come a long way and is still improving their craft. This game will likely be remembered for the art.

And now the negative list:

• Content: There is almost none. This plays like someone spent an afternoon in RPG maker copying the core code from previous game, made a handful of maps, called it a day and then released it to the public without any kind of bugtesting.
• Erotic scenes: None. There is one lazy placeholder scene that is extremely short. The only dialogue is the dev saying that he couldn't be bothered to spend 20 minutes to write an erotic scene for the first build. Most other interactions with characters are the same too: the dev saying that he couldn't possibly write dialogue.
• Story: Edgy teen collects big tit women in the zombie apocalypse.
• Bugs: Plenty. You can walk through buildings, characters that just vanish, you can go outside during the nighttime intro (yes, it's day outside), characters with no interaction. I doubt the dev even played his game before distributing

First thing I come by to check out the first update and see why it took that long to breed out. For real, I came hoping to see something worth a few minutes of my time just in the gameplay department, something that might aid whatever the main updates in the future might holster for the game, but hear me out, THERE IS ZERO TO NO CONTENT IN THE UPDATE RELEASE. I remember back when Siren announced the project in December, and ought to make the community choose between a short, soon update, or a more lengthwise thing, worth of a beta. Of course the beta was chosen due to overhype. For real, this game does not deserve five stars, nor 4, 3 or, 2. This isn't even a game, but just some placeholder build-tester the m'fucker could've pulled out of his ass any day of the week.

There is no dialogue, nothing worth to collect, zombies located in bad spots right behind doors, stealing upright hearts if you try to come in, no cgs, no placeholder art, your crafts are only either healthpacks or ammo. The intro isn't even worth mentioning, since somehow he nailed to make the characters even more one dimentional than the first game, in which, at least the intro allowed for a brief telling of the mc's sister's character, but here, I cannot even tell what their personalities are.

This shit could've been made in an afternoon, since the back-bone was already in the first game, which this game obviously re-uses. Please people, as it is 'buildtest' 0.1.1 has less than sixty seconds worth of content.

This is a great game - it's got nice artwork, impressive animation and sexy characters. The story's pretty decent, with some good dialogue and a bit more plot than the standard grind and seduce dating sim.

For an intro everything matters. I really enjoyed the world building of being by yourself at the start of the attack, in the store but I don't particularly like the placement of characters immediately before and after (ie. meeting Fiona and mom and sis being directly outside the store). Hopefully that gets changed
