Escape Dead Island left me with conflicted feelings. It is definitely much more hated that it actually deserves to be; it has some good ideas, but the execution is just lacking in so many ways. I thought the story was interesting and I just had fun smashing zombies to bits in the colorful (this time with comic book style graphics) areas of the island, but it started to get a bit tedious towards the end, mainly because of the clunky combat and horrible checkpoints (no checkpoints if you pick up collectibles, so have fun picking up shit over and over again if you die) and awful controls. Despite its flaws, I still enjoyed this quick detour back in the Dead Island universe and the lore it offered.
