* WhatAnIdiot: Ira. Seth exhibits dangerous trigger-happy behavior early on. Ira even makes note of it after [[spoiler:she sees Seth reach for his gun after Rick stands up to him]]. But, for some reason, she feels the need to explore the place for [[spoiler:more history on Seth's dangerous behavior]]. Seeing that ''once'' should've been enough to realize he needed to be subdued. Of course, with Jonathan [[NonActionGuy injured]] that, realistically, wouldn't leave sufficient power to attempt this since [[spoiler:Rick walked out of the store around then leaving only Ira and Tark. Of course, there's also Amy who, while not strong enough, could act as a sufficient distraction, since Seth was effectively distracted by her earlier.]] It was a problem that could've been addressed if Ira had exercised some ''common sense''.

* SerialNumbersFiledOff: Depends. Some people feel that this game is essentially a poorly done, overly religious rip-off of ''TheMist''. The writer says he was inspired by the story (so the similarities shouldn't be surprising). Of course, inspiration can only go so far before something becomes ''too'' similar...

** The game also has a striking resemblance to ''VideoGame/DeadlyPremonition'' of all things. Both take place in a small rural town in the woods plagued by supernatural threats, both based their story off of more famous works (''Series/TwinPeaks'' and TheMist), both have odd quirky characters and silly dialog and both [[spoiler:get serious about their horror elements near the end where the player has to MercyKill their love interest to spare them a FateWorseThanDeath. Unfortunately, the MercyKill doesn't work here and the victim survives to continue suffering.]]

* StrawmanHasAPoint: At the ''Zombie Inglor'', Inglor calls Ludy out for his alleged sadism, asking him if he ever considered that the Zombies could have feelings, which Ludy scoffs at, calling them "animals". As arrogant and smug as Ludy is, he's right: All the zombies ingame, even the non-hostile ones you can talk to, care only about killing and eating brains. Heck, Inglor's brother ''immediately'' tried to kill him post-zombification. Inglor thus comes off as starry-eyed at best and as brain-dead as the zombies at worst.

* ScrappyMechanic[=/=]ThatOneLevel: One of the biggest complaints about the game are the [[UnexpectedGameplayChange constant mini-games]] and the FakeDifficulty they add, such as collecting a faroff item with a racecar with finicky controls and a lot of bear traps in-between, and a first person shooter-esque level where you have to fight hordes of creatures, with only ''two'' shotgun shells each, having to reload after every two shots, meaning that if you don't land your shots correctly, you're in for a quick death.

Added DiffLines:

** The art itself is pretty good, but the actual animation and dialog leaves something to be desired, particularly with some of the facial expressions.
* NarmCharm: The last third or so of the game takes the kid gloves off and hits the player with some pretty heavy stuff. The animation and dialog quality doesn't really improve much, but the sheer nightmarishness of the situation helps retain some of the scare factor.


Added DiffLines:

** Tark cutting a bloody swath through a large horde of fog monsters (some of which are the size of CARS) with only an ax and Ira as backup.
