While the game veers towards the serious, it's an oddly fun battle for life and death. The game plays very differently when you add more players, but that's a good thing, and the ability to invite a friend into my game at any point is a major selling point. I keep thinking that I'm bored with co-op zombie games, but Dead Island has enough personality and variation on the idea to make me excited about playing more.
