About the game
You play Claire and Moira, then Barry and Natalia, on a prison island full of zombie-like monsters. Ammo is scarce, so you search dark corridors for keys and items and shoot with care. The story comes in four episodes, and each one ends on a cliffhanger.
Each pair is built for two players. One of you has the gun. The other is the helper, who blinds enemies with a flashlight, senses hidden monsters, finds items or throws bricks, and is much weaker in a fight. The story is played on one split screen, with two controllers. Online co-op is in Raid Mode, a score-attack mode where you fight waves of monsters and unlock weapons and characters.
Expect a campy story and quick, tense fights with little ammo. It suits two people who want a shared horror campaign to finish and are happy with one of them in the support role.
