Undead Blocks Review

Introduction

Undead Blocks brings  back the nostalgia enjoyed by FPS zombie shooters of the past. The development studio provides players with a thrilling and unique gaming experience while allowing players to earn in-game rewards and build equity in their Weapon Loadouts.

Whether you used to go in alone trying to get into the “above 50” solo zombies club or was more of a squads type of player, Undead Blocks wants to be the home to everyone who wants to mow down zombie hordes..

Gameplay

You are dropped into an apocalyptic map as one of the witty characters you select before you load in. All players are dropped into the game starting with a Pistol and a Combat Knife. Every kill grants the player XP with a bonus for killing zombies with a headshot.

Depending on the weapons available in your verified weapon loadout NFT, you get to spend this XP to obtain more powerful guns that will assist you in taking down the undead back to where they came from. 

There is a total of 12 weapons on release, split into:

• 3 melee weapons
• 2 handguns
• MP5 (SMG)
• 2 assault rifles
• 2 shotguns
• Hunting Rifle (Long Range)
• Crossbow (Specialty)

There is going to be additional content released periodically into the game in the form of battle passes, including weapon skins, new weapons, new characters, new maps, etc.

Games Modes

Solo – Survive as many waves as possible on your own

Squads – Round up your friends and play with party size of 2-4 players and work together to kill zombies

Speed Run – Players will have to complete a set number of waves as fast as they can!

Showdowns – Weekend tournaments with specific rules for players to overcome and get a shot at winning a portion of the prize pool

All of these elements combined make Undead Blocks one of the web3 games you never want to put down. Wagyu Games managed to find a successful formula with their weekly weekend tournaments, offering consistent $10K and above prize pools, to keep players always wanting to come back and give it their best shot.

This isn't the only aspect as its free-to-play model allows anyone to download it and play, giving a positive outlook on web3 games as a whole and debunking the barrier of entry argument raised consistently. Undead Blocks benefits from the tremendous replayability and longevity Call of Duty Zombies managed to build over the years and decades of its existence, and replicating that formula or that form of success will definitely take some time.

Nonetheless, zombie games have its niche community that are loyal to the genre and will keep coming back to get their daily dose of slaying waves of the undead. With the amount of content, new modes, new zombies, new weapons, and lore being prepared to tie in the Undead Blocks world, the sky is the limit for Wagyu Games.

Review

Undead Blocks takes advantage from a successful formula made popular by the Call of Duty franchise and puts its own spin and touch on it. This extra bit makes the game special and gives a refreshing experience to zombie lovers everywhere. The opportunity to be rewarded for the unfathomable hours put into slaying zombies to reach round 50+ is a no-brainer and with Wagyu Games making every decision with their players in mind, their success is inevitable.

On top of that, Undead Blocks showcases the true beauty of web3 gaming and the power of blockchain technology with their instant payouts once their weekly weekend $10K and above tournaments end. The game's flaws can be easily overlooked considering the amount of constant fun and countless hours you can sink into it.
