Test your Zombie Skills

See if you can Survive the Outbreak. Basically you watch little minute long clips of a movie and then you make a choice, driving the plot of the movie. Here’s the thing, I died. Constantly. Which is obviously rediculous considering I am widely known to be one of the foremost zombie experts.

I have some complaints about the way the whole thing is set up. Just like in a choose your own adventure, you might die from something that has nothing to do with what action you took. For example, you might choose to eat the ham sandwhich and then a stray bullet hits you. But that had nothing to do with your choice to eat the ham sandwhich! You couldn’t have known at the time of the choice that bullets were going to start raining through the kitchen table. So it is rather arbitrary, and not actually a very good test of your zombie survival skills.

Luckily, also like choose your own adventure, you can go back and pick a different path, although many of them end up going down the same path ultimately.

All that being said, it was actually well done. The film itself was actually done better than many full length zombie movie’s I’ve seen (i.e. Biker Zombies from Detroit).

P.S. Writing this post made me stumble on a lot of old choose your own adventure stuff, and man oh man did I love those books! Just seeing the covers brought back a lot of memories. You can check out their official site here.
