Evaluation

Lone Leader launched on October 28, 2016. The developer posted a minor map and sound update the day after launch (v1.1) and noted that "more updates will follow in the following days." A bug fix patch was published on January 12, 2017 to resolve a missing executable error. That January 2017 post is the last known communication from the developer — there have been no announcements, patches, or roadmap posts since. The game shipped as a self-contained zombie survival experience with no DLC, no season pass, and no announced future content. The brief flurry of activity immediately after launch was typical post-release housekeeping, and the developer never communicated any plans for expansions or additional content. With no updates or communications since January 2017, the game is best understood as a complete, finished product that launched in October 2016.

About this game

My name is Matthew, I just finished my economic study. That means a new period in life, searching for a well-paid job. As a child, I've always dreamed of the future. I imagined foreign adventures, exploring the outside world, living an exciting life, and making survival tours in countries far, far away. Unfortunately, these dreams never came about, so I stopped dreaming. I’ve already applied for a job as a notary, I should make more money than anyone else could, that was the plan. But a new local problem changed it a bit. The problem is a new type of virus. Oh no, not a virus that makes you ill, no it changes you into a monster, half alive, half dead, a ZOMBIE! Is there any medicine for this? No, of course not.

The virus came from the laboratory in the city, a professor contracted it from a sample specimen during a simple lab experiment gone nightmarishly wrong. That meant the beginning of the nightmare I’m in now. Why? Because I’m the last normal human in here except the soldiers of the enemy army who started occupying the city before the virus broke out.

However, it made my life a lot more exciting, interesting. It looks like my childhood dreams finally came true, but not in the way I've always imagined. For now, I've got only one thing to do, survive.

Oh, and why I’m still alive? Probably bad luck...

Lone Leader is a zombie apocalypse game, try to survive and break out of the nightmare that’s been created. Kill all the enemies such as soldiers and zombies. Watch out! You only have one chance, so do it right.

You spawn in an open world map as player Matthew. In a first person view, you have to collect items to keep alive and escape from the city. The chilling ambiance and frightening jumpscares keep players on the edge of their seat in this one of a kind thriller.
