Infestation: New Beginning (Game)

Infestation is a multi-player open world survival horror game, developed by OP Productions and Werewolf Studios. It is a complete re-mastered and all new improved remake of Infestation: Survivor Stories and like the original; features both first person and third person shooting perspectives and offers players the option of killing zombies or playing against other players.

Infestion was in development after having many negative reviews about the original game, due to problems and bugs. Since Werewolf Studios suggested that they have the same concept, but in a new game, OP Productions made plans for an all new game and with much better improvements than the original game.

In July of 2014, Infestation was released onto Steam and onto the Xbox consoles and since was revieved with positive reviews, mostly on the game's better improvement and fixing.

Gameplay
Like the original game, Infestation is a zombie survival game where players endure the hardships of a post-apocalyptic, zombie-infested world. By collaborating with other players, and finding weapons and items, players increase their chances of survival. The game incorporates survival elements like hunger and thirst, which gradually grow over time. Supplies such as food and water can be found to not only battle the thirst and hunger, but can also heal the player. If the player fails to properly quench their hunger and thirst, the player's character will eventually die. It is possible to buy food and drinks if the player has none or chooses not to scavenge for the items in the world. Upon character death, you can revive your character for free instead of having players to wait either 20 minutes or pay to revive the character. When you respond after your character's demise, you start over but you also have two smaller melees (Ex. a Hammer or a Hatchet), good amount of food and water and some clothing that you've may of had before.

In Infestion, there are now a new Safe Zone called a Survivor Area, where it is a active survivor-like area that instead of going to use the General Store during gameplay, you spawn (When you start or respawn) in a survivor town where any survivor town (only one) and you can access to greater melees and well handed pistols (Unfortunatly, they do not sell any other firearms due to that in Infestion, firearms are now rare to find in gameplay) at "Hardy's General Store" and you can also access food and water that can respawn when picked up (However, the max to hold onto food and water can be at 10-20) at the "K-Small store" and also there is a section called "Shelter" where you now can sleep and respawn at when killed.

Outside the safe zones, players can engage in player versus player combat and player versus environment combat with zombies. Killing other players grants the user reputation based on the victims standing and a chance to collect their dropped items, whereas killing zombies grants the user experience points for use in the game's skill tree.
