Like stepping into a horror movie!

The House of the Dead: Overkill is a rail shooter where you get to outsmart persistent zombies. It's the combination of horror with humor that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The game has a Grindhouse vibe, making you feel like you're looking at a picture from the old days, complete with crackling sounds and flickering images.

HOTD: Overkill a Worthy Sequel
The grind-house atmosphere, choice of multiple weapons, and a dose of humor make The House of the Dead: Overkill feel and play like a great on-rail shooter. Despite the changes compared to the older HOTD games, the game (fortunately) feels very familiar.
A nice detail in this game is that you can increase your score by activating multipliers. You do this by killing zombies without missing a bullet. This allows the game to be played in multiple ways. Will you go full throttle Rambo style or take it easy and aim for a sick score?
The game features quite large levels for an on-rail shooter, and after completing the story mode, there is still the director's cut. This mode includes slightly longer levels and more zombies.
If you're a fan of the old HOTD games, on-rail shooters, and blasting zombies, then you shouldn't miss out on this game.

Rail-shooter "a la grindhouse"
Funny game. Perhaps strange to say about a game where you spend 95% of your time reducing zombies to a puddle of blood, but The House of the Dead: Overkill really contains brilliant dialogues, completely infused with all kinds of variations on the word f*ck. The graphics are wrapped in a sort of "grindhouse coat" (something I had never seen in a game before) and the dialogue is the delightful cherry on top. What's also cool about this rail-shooter is that you can move the screen up, down, or sideways, giving you a bit more freedom which you don't often see in similar games.

Better than its predecessors, but a bit short
The House of the Dead II and III games for the Wii were quite disappointing, as they didn't surpass their arcade predecessors. The House of the Dead: Overkill changes this by simply not having such a predecessor.

The result is that the game excels in terms of graphics, gameplay, and even controls, making it much more enjoyable to play overall. The only downside is that the game is a bit short: with a bit of luck/misfortune, you can finish the game within 5 hours...

Nice in small doses
On-rails games don't appeal to me because you don't have the freedom that I actually play a game for. Other than that, there's absolutely nothing wrong with The House of the Dead: Overkill because it's still fun to shoot heads, but it's always something you play for about half an hour or so.

Fun game.
The House of the Dead: Overkill is a fun game. In the game, you have to shoot at zombies. You don't have to walk yourself because it happens automatically. Very enjoyable game.
