As such, the game can get a lot of fun. His Wild and humorous proposal can be quite interesting, which is based on a very particular character that wakes up after a plane crash and does not know where he is or why he is there.
From that moment you will have To find out how you got there and why there is a green mist that is turning everyone into a zombie.
To do this we will visit different locations quite varied where the locals will tell us what has happened, and give us directions on what we should do to keep advancing in our research, all with a comical aspect rather funny At times.
The argument of the game as such may seem quite cliché, however, the more we advance through the game we will see how it goes surprising with some rather unexpected plot turns.
The game as such is a beat'em up in every rule. We will have a varied arsenal to destroy our enemies, which are mainly zombies. They are Not very varied, but hitting a zombie with a bat and achieving a homerun is something you like to repeat quite a bit.
And, as I mentioned earlier, the game bases its proposal playable in humor mainly. The conversations that the protagonist has, with his cynical way of seeing the view, plus his "deep" reflections, make this adventure rather enjoyable to enjoy during the 6 hours that lasts his proposal.
Apart from our armament, we will have the invaluable help of our brand new red car, which we will be able to improve thanks to the money that we will get every time we end up with an enemy.
Without a doubt, it is quite entertaining to traverse the desert while crushing dozens and dozens of zombies without shame.
In Addition, the game shows a certain degree of sandbox, being able to traverse the map to pleasure, which is quite extensive, to visit different characters and to carry out missions or to obtain information.
As far as its technical aspect is concerned, the game in its day showed some graphics quite resultones, very at par with the comic style of which it does gala, although it was not very well optimized at all. However, today the graphics still maintain a good minimum level and the optimization problem will be nothing more than an anecdote.
The sound aspect, on the other hand, offers some quite entertaining melodies and some of them somewhat mysterious that endow the environment with a greater immersion. The voices, in English, are quite well done, especially the main character.
As far as its playable system is, and once it has commented On Its main features, you must know that everything is well implemented so that the action does not stop for a moment. The enemies will be very numerous, but not least our desire to end them.
Run over ten of them, hit them with the baseball bat on the head or shoot them all over the jeta with the sawed-off shotgun is a pleasure.
For All this, I think this game is worth it if you want to enjoy a game of direct action and fun, where humor is present all the time, and whose argument, without getting to marvel, can entertain enough.
Just, Pound of Ground is one of those quirks of the PC world that will leave you a pleasant memory in time. No more, no less.
