Valve’s Left 4 Dead Dilogy (2008-2009)

The developer’s talent in creating a virtual zombie apocalypse is vividly demonstrated in both parts of the Left 4 Dead project. Although the requirements for their creation were initially high compared to TF and CS creations. It is reliably known that no one will create a third part, although the number of fans of the first two versions of the game has not decreased even after 12 years.

The game universe describes a pandemic of a terrible disease that affected almost the entire population of the United States. The first terrible symptom was madness, but the disease progressed, turning the infected into terrifying mutant zombies with incredible strength. In just a few weeks, the zombie apocalypse engulfed half the country, after which the survivors began to be rescued by the government.

At the center of attention are 4 characters who missed the evacuation and are now forced to survive and escape from the situation on their own. This background forms the basis of the first part of the game, and the second version of Left 4 Dead became its logical continuation. In the second part, the basic mechanics have not changed, but several campaigns have been added, each with its own mission and a shared storyline. The player can choose to cooperate with friends or create their own team of bots to gather the necessary 4 participants in the game. The choice is yours, but playing with live players creates a truly intense atmosphere.

Following the map on the way to the destination, the heroes constantly have to deal with hordes of terrible, bloodthirsty zombies. When food and weapons are running low, it is especially important to find a shelter, also known as a bunker, where players can briefly rest from the battle for survival. The standard game mode is not a panacea, as you can always switch to the “Mutations,” “Survival,” “Realism,” or “Collecting” mode. There can be no complaints about the quality of both parts of the game, but in the second version of Left 4 Dead, there are more opportunities for online play.
