Evaluation

Trapped Dead: Lockdown launched on March 20, 2015 as a complete hack-and-slash RPG. The developer, Bigmoon Studios, released one post-launch patch on June 24, 2015 (Patch 1.1), which addressed balance tweaks, language support, and bug fixes. After that, there have been no further updates, announcements, or developer communications specific to this game. The store description lists the game's features without mentioning any planned DLC, expansions, or ongoing content. There are no unreleased DLC entries on the store. The subsequent news posts from 2019–2021 relate entirely to a different game (Dead Age 2) by a related but separate developer (Silent Dreams), and are not communications about Trapped Dead: Lockdown's future. The game launched as a finished product and received only a single maintenance patch before development concluded.
Evidence

About this game

A small American town is overrun by the living dead! You manage to enter the town just before the military locks it down and now you must slice and shoot your way through thousands of zombies in order complete your mission in this action-packed Hack & Slash RPG.

In Trapped Dead: Lockdown, you fight your way through an interactive horror story as one of five different characters: The marine, the butcher, the assassin, the marshal and the exorcist. Every class comes with their own custom storyline, as well as individual strengths and abilities – the assassin is an expert in firearms, the butcher slaughters his enemies in melee combat and the exorcist fries zombies with his spiritual abilities. Each of the characters features his own individual skill tree, where you can unlock new defensive abilities and attacking moves to aid you in combat.

In Trapped Dead: Lockdown, you’ll have to choose between wielding two weapons at the same time or equipping one powerful two-handed one. The huge number of weapons keeps the gameplay interesting by letting you experiment with new combinations all the time: Would you like to send a concussion shot with the pistol first, then grab your hammer for a double blow, or rely on the mystical powers of the magic cross to set the zombies on fire? Clubs, axes, knives, revolvers, tasers, rifles, shotguns, bows, grenades, spell books, etc. There are hundreds of different weapons with which to kill the living dead - you can even use vehicles to run them over!

While discovering the huge game world, you’ll encounter many different types of rotting enemies and menacing boss monsters whose different strategies and abilities will require you to think fast and hit hard if you want to live. The monsters thirst for blood and move in quickly from all sides, so make sure not to be surrounded! Friendly NPCs may ask you for help or fight alongside you, but in the end, there’s only one rule in this world: kill or be killed!

Features:
  • Zombie-Action in a rich horror atmosphere
  • Five different classes with individual storylines
  • Complex Skill tree to level up your abilities and attributes makes for an individual RPG experience
