State of Decay is an interesting but somewhat flawed zombie survival game that has been made better with the arrival of its first expansion, Breakdown, that provided the game with endless replayability by abandoning the story-focused limitation of the vanilla release and turning it into one mean game where raw survival becomes the story of the game. With this Lifeline expansion, the game returns to its roots by presenting a new perspective on its vision of the zombie apocalypse: you are now in control of a small group of soldiers who are tasked to locate important survivors in Danforth, a devastated metropolis still located in the Trumbull County area. The game's best asset has never been its storytelling and that problem still remains in this latest expansion.
This is going to happen. A lot.
