On hearing that Back 4 Bloods developer roster included previous members of the Left 4 Dead development team, there was instant hype that a new L4D format zombie game was coming to the market.
When first starting up, the card system is a little disconcerting as it was initially difficult to grasp how to effectively plan out your runs, this quickly changes after a few runs as you start to realise where your weaknesses are and then build decks to counter these issues.
Difficultly levels can be best described as:
Recruit - A nice walk in the park with guns
Veteran - Oh damn there's zombies in the park.
Nightmare - Why is the park on fire? *approaching rumbling of a battalion of special zombies in the distance*
Overall, this game gives all the nostalgic feel of the left 4 dead franchise but with the added bonus of flexibility, each card deck can provide a different type of playthrough which gives the game hours of replayability.
TL;DR: It's like left for dead, but better!
