    Few games offer as much variety as Dustoff Z and its tight gameplay and rewarding progression systems make it one enjoyable indie.

    Dustoff Z on Xbox One is one of those games that you should take a punt on if you’re looking to keep yourself entertained for an evening, home alone, with little else to keep you occupied. It delivers a decent upgrade system to both the shooters you can employ and the vehicles that you can fly, and there’s just enough of a test to ensure you won’t be able to shut your eyes and hope for the best.

    When I first checked out Dustoff Z, I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this game, as I had never been introduced to the Dustoff line of games previously. The first time I played Dustoff Z though I got so caught up in it that I played it for about 4 hours before I had realized that much time had went by. It has enough of a challenge that I can continue to play and not get bored, but I also get frustrated because I can't get past a certain boss until the chopper and shooters get a bunch of upgrades, so there’s a bit of grind to it. That being said, after playing for a few days and losing a handful of hours playing it, it dawned on me that I rather enjoyed Dustoff Z more than I expected.

    When you get over the niggling feeling of what seems like a mobile port, Dustoff Z is quite fun. It has an element of grind to it, sans microtransactions, but treat it like a simple-minded arcade game and you’ll have a blast.

    So a masterpiece it is not, but Dustoff Z has its merits. Its polygonal art style is cute, and its easy pick-up-and-play level system means it’s the ideal game to stick on for a few minutes while you’re waiting for an update to install elsewhere. It might feel like little more than a mobile game, but it’s an entertaining way to pass the time in between more engaging endeavours.

    I was not overly satisfied or dissatisfied with my time flying a helicopter above leaping zombies. The graphics aren’t the best, but they don’t have to be. It’s all for fun. I would say it’s well worth a playthrough. The physics can be frustrating at times and ruin the speed of your run, and annoyingly cannot be mastered. There’s shortness involved with completing the game, but with all the unlockables, stars, daily missions, and difficulty options, there’s sure a lot to do after you’re done the first time through.

    Dustoff Z is an IP that thanks to its playable mechanics will manage to capture the most veteran players, it's a pity that with its monotonous gameplay it won't succeed in the long run.

    Dustoff Z is a Horde Survival mobile Game ported to console. I'm not even sure what genre to category this game with. You are a chopper pilot,Dustoff Z is a Horde Survival mobile Game ported to console. I'm not even sure what genre to category this game with. You are a chopper pilot, well if you want to call most of what you'll fly a helicopter... Your objective to to navigate the wastelands and keep the zombie hoards from destroying your ride (yeah... I'll stick with that) All the while saving survivors, gathering supplies and upgrading Your Ride so you're tough enough to take down the wild boss zombies. You acquire coin and can food, the coin is used to restart levels and upgrade your ride. the can food gets you new gunners to ride on your chopper. The Better your Gunners the less you have to worry about the zombies (that can leap 150ft). As you progress you also get to purchase new choppers, from the junk-heap you start with to some pretty wild designs. The game is a fun time burner, and has just enough variety to keep you interested. The Boss Battles are fun and add just enough challenge. Not the biggest zombie title of the year, but good fun!
