Final Days is an arcade-style co-op shooter where you battle endless hordes of mutants. As the hordes grow into the hundreds, work together with your team to survive the onslaught!
The game tasks players with battling endless hordes of mutants in an arcade-style co-op shooter. Players can team up with friends or use bots to help them survive the frenetic onslaught. The gameplay revolves around clearing waves of enemies and trying to stay alive as long as possible.
Players have access to several different ammo types, including rapid-fire, spread shot, power shot, and heavy shot. This adds strategic depth, as players must decide which ammo type is most suitable for the situation. However, some reviews note that the lack of visual distinction between ammo types can make it difficult to keep track of what you're currently using.
While moving and shooting, players will find that their aim becomes less accurate, encouraging them to carefully consider their positioning. The environment can be interacted with by moving and placing objects to try and slow down the mutant hordes, although these defenses won't last long.
The game offers a diverse selection of game modes for players to choose from, including: Rendezvous: Battle through 7 different maps in a wave-based survival mode, trying to reach the extraction point. Escape: Fight your way out of an infested underground bunker. Depths: Secure a strategic bunker that has been invaded by mutants and giant bugs. Last Stand: Hold out for as long as possible in an endless wave-based survival mode. Eradication: Clear an endless underground bunker of mutants floor by floor. This variety helps to keep the gameplay fresh and engaging for players.
Players generally praise the game's entertaining, stable, and well-crafted gameplay, with the developer being seen as responsive to feedback. The small but active community has enjoyed features like the ability to create and share custom maps.
