    If you're interest in buying, WAIT on this game for now. Though it doesn't say it, this game FEELS early access. It's way too buggy for a "Full Release" title and it needs QOL adjustments to some pretty annoying features. Some examples of what I mean: - When using the X-ray, contraband will NOT show up visually.

    This game is nice but incredibly short for a campaign. But that is okay because I got bored playing in the last days. The endless mode is available though. And I mean to address the developers: You have to add more features , more gameplay and trading cards. Do not abandon the game. I wish you all the best 7.5/10 - a decent level

Critics, per Wikipedia

Quarantine Zone: The Last Check received "mixed or average" reviews from critics, according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. Fellow review aggregator OpenCritic assessed that the game received fair approval, being recommended by 41% of critics. It sold over 500,000 copies in the first week of its release. The game's quickly engaging gameplay concept was praised, as it remains motivating through the continuous unlocking of additional tools and symptoms. Criticism was directed at its technical lack of polish: the release version reportedly still contained many graphical and gameplay bugs, and the potential of the game engine was not fully utilized. Base management was also seen…

    Good foundation for a game but for the love of GOD please stop adding meme references and twitch streamers. Absolutely horrible for immersion. I was really hoping this would be a tense game where you have to balance between human morality and the pressure to reach a quota of extracted survivors. It just turns into a reddit-tier meme fest that constantly sabotages itself by trying to be funny. Edit: Humor and what you find funny is subjective. Believe me, I love brain rot too. But I firmly…

    I bought Quarantine Zone: The Last Check expecting a tense zombie management sim and instead got promoted to the most stressful customer service job in the apocalypse. Five stars, would absolutely deny entry again. This game turns you into the bouncer of the end times. Every survivor waddles up looking suspicious, coughing like they just ate drywall, and it is your job to decide if they get safety or a fast track to the lab where science definitely does not ask for consent. The screening tools…

    Quarantine Zone is one of those games that pretends it's going to be tense, stressful and full of tough decisions... and then turns into a very polite spreadsheet with zombies. The idea is actually cool. You sit at a checkpoint during a zombie outbreak, scan people, look for symptoms, and decide who gets in. Sounds like pressure, right? Moral dilemmas, panic, "oh no, what if I mess this up"? Yeah. No. The game is ridiculously easy. Within the first 30-40 minutes, you already know everything.…

    Game either needed to be released in Early Access, or should have been delayed a couple more months. As others have reported, there are numerous bugs, glitches, and frustrations present throughout the game. However, many of them do not come into play until a few hours into the game; had I come across even a couple of the bugs I've seen or others have seen, I would have requested a refund and waited for a few more patches. As it is, cannot recommend the game in its current state. Wait for either…

    While the game play is fun, the amount of game-breaking bugs is abysmal. Bugs that prevent core mechanics of game play, such as contraband items not being visible on the X-Ray machine, should not be occurring on release day. We should not normalize this. This game should have remained in development or perhaps been released as Early Access. At this time, I would not recommend this game.

    This is a tough one. The gameplay if fun enough, but for the cost it doesnt seem worth it. The campaign is over in a blink, and the endless gameplay is insanely repetitive with little desire to continue. If the price lowers to half the cost i may change my opinion, but at its current cost not worth it.

    This really leans into being streamer bait over a fully realized simulator. A lot of the in-game information is weirdly flawed and misleading, like the pale skin symptom being taken under really blown out lighting when in-game people with pale skin are actually purple. The in-game handbook misled me into thinking cigarettes and garlic were contraband because their examples didn't bother to hide items that aren't contraband. The upgrades are extremely shallow to the point where you will play…

    Enjoyable for the first 1-2 hours, but then the game becomes super repetitive with very little reward. I finished the campaign in about 5 hours, wishing I had spent that time on a different title. For (normally) $20, there's not much content in what appears to be an incomplete game. The developers try to make it seem like every choice matters, but there's only two outcomes: you let in an infected or you don't. The game is really gimmicky. I suggest passing on this one and simply watching a…

    Seems like a fun enough game, but I refunded it because it's not colorblind friendly. I wont give a thumbs down though because it's not the developer's fault that I'm colorblind, but beware if you plan on buying this game that there's a lot of discerning shades of red and green.

    It's a good game but I hate the drone part, It's just not my thing and I feel it just gets in the way of the rest of the game, it would be better if they gave an option to turn off that mode and maybe offer more bonuses for those who use it.

    The game uses AI generated assets. The game does not disclose that is uses AI generated assests. The dev team denies using AI generated assests when AI generated assets are clearly seen. Let me know when y'all see that wacky magazine cover with that sketchy looking godzilla called "Donala" show up on the survivors gear table. Shame on the devs for using AI and double shame on them for lying about it. They put more money and time into cameos from streamers than they did into their own art and…

    I'm sad about this game as it was extremely fun up until you unlock the stethoscope. On that day, people come into the checkpoint with symptoms you can't even look for yet with the tools you have. This leads to feeling like I'm continually being punished with "poor inspection" when it's not even my fault? I had to look up the symptom I was missing (because of course, the game doesn't tell you or give you any kind of information or clue) and found out that I needed the x-ray to correctly…

    If I could, I would give this game a neutral rating, but sadly that's not an option. It's not a bad game per se, but it's not great either. The gameplay loop is just look at people, get a new piece of equipment, sleep, occasionally shoot gun, and repeat, so it can get a little old fast. The game has so many bugs, and for a game of this style, WHY IS THERE NO WAY TO SEE WHAT YOU DID WRONG IN AN INSPECTION??? I could get over some of the bugs, the copious amounts of immersion breaking NPCs (we…

    It's nice. For the first half hour. An interesting approach to a zombie game. It doesn't take itself too seriously, and there are little action sequences here and there that break up the gameplay. Technically not very impressive, but it doesn't need to be. It's a shame, though, that the immersion suffers because of a few things. For example, NPCs don't look at YOU, but always look in one direction, even when they're talking to you. But the worst thing is the bug that has already been mentioned…

    AMD users beware. In its current state I don't recommend it. It's certainly fun, it's not the gameplay that I have issue with. AMD users have been known to crash, and the current fix they offer us is a pop-up window on game startup asking players to downgrade their AMD graphics drivers... I didn't buy a new computer to keep up with newer games' graphical demands just to have to downgrade to play this. Very odd.

However, it comes with its own gameplay logic issues and obvious cut corners at launch. 1. A large chunk of research points (for base upgrades) comes from noting observations on checkpoint survivors.

    Game has taken a weird direction of just cameo cameo cameo. A lot of the updates just keep adding crossover characters from other games, most you won’t even recognise, and they show up near daily during gameplay. Even if you don’t recognise them, you still know when it’s one because they break up the flow of the game. They come with weird character details, like one of the earlier ones being a skeleton in a hoodie, or they’re just overly detailed and feel completely out of place.

QZTLC is a fun spin on "Papers, Please" style gaming and didn't overstay its welcome over the 16 hours it took me to complete a run with the good ending.

    I played the demo and the game feels like the demo has been looped 10 times. The general gameplay is fine at first until you notice the lack of depth. The campaign feels lifeless the only difference between it and endless are the 'missions' which are poorly implemented and dull. Not only are there very few missions they require a very specific path to be followed to get content out of them. It lacks the character of Papers Please which makes any moral choices have impact for the player. The…

The main gameplay loop starts frustrating because you don't have access to all the tools and the suddenly flips into tedious once you have too many tools.

    Way too unclear, bugged, and has forced story missions that ruin previous work to be recommended. Too often do symptoms just not appear and contraband is not explained well whatsoever. The tutorial/story content can easily screw you. Replenished your fuel the same day you're introduced to the base mechanics? Listened to the tutorial guy warning you not to run out of fuel? Screw you, you just wasted all that money just so they can show you a tutorial. Had a bunch of people in quarantine?…

    Devs of this game made a game where the whole point of it is checking people for symptoms of a virus, but then had the bright idea to stick cameos of streamers or something in it, one of them being a literal skeleton. And if you send that freak to hell like you normally assume you should because it's a zombie apocalypse then the game penalizes you. Except SOMETIMES the freak shows up with an actual sign of the infection, but you can't see it because he has no skin, so if you let him through you…

    I really wanted to like this game, when I heard about it and what it was about I knew I had to give it a go. But honestly, I didn't enjoy it. I think I got to day 12 before giving up because it was winding me up and more frustrating than it was fun. There's lots of little ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, but a few main points that made it unenjoyable for me. - Symptoms: This is probably the main issue I had and boils down to a couple of specific issues. Number one being the game does a really poor job of…

    Might change my review if the devs fix the issues. Most notably you randomly fail check ups on survivors and you have no idea what you did miss or did wrong, no feedback whatsoever so you keep doing the same mistake over and over again hopeless to understand what the hell the game wants from you. No thanks, I ended up killing all survivors out of frustation and shutting down the game,

    If you enjoyed either Papers please, or Contraband police, then this would be a title you might want to check out. I have been fortunate and have not experienced any major bugs within my 11 hours of playtime, and have also had no performance issues of note. The only annoyance was playing with controller. The sensitivity does not adjust well and feels out of control especially in the defense segments with the drone. Other than that the gameplay loop is fairly simple. You run a checkpoint during…

    Dont buy this game. They are only focused on adding crossovers and cameo survivors to the game. Not one single person asked for anything like that in this game. The most important part? Theyve added basically nothing new to the game, no new modes, mechanics, nothing. Just crossover characters.

    the gameplay loop is alright, it's engaging for the first little while. it's pretty shallow in terms of depth, mechanics, story, and content though. it'll keep ya entertained for maybe 5-10 hours. thats not terrible for the price i suppose but the devs, for some reason, insist on adding in cameos of streamers, and other franchises. some are absolutely bonkers, such as a dude thats only a skeleton with a bag over his head. the streamers/youtubers/tik tokers are just annoying. theyve been doing…

    I had been excited to play Quarantine Zone: The Last Check. I enjoyed the demo so much that I played it multiple times. I had been patiently waiting for its release, and the minute it was announced, I purchased it. I was ready to see what changes and improvements had been made in the full version. A change I wish they had not made, but understand why they did, was removing the UV from the flashlight. Personally, I found it easier that way, but I know they changed it for a reason. Having to…

    The game is in real rough shape right now. Considering the game was delayed for "polish" for months, I dare say they should have taken a few more to get things right. I love games like this. Paper's Please, Contraband Police, etc. This game scratches an itch for sure, and I WANT to like it, but it's just not up to snuff yet. A couple gripes. The upgrade system is tacked on and lack luster. Nothing exciting. There were some upgrades I saw that genuinely made me chuckle like increased…

    I last played this game on February 2nd.. I played it every day and hit 13 hours on it. I was focused on getting through the story (it was short but wasn't too short). After finishing the story, I had left the game and was waiting for new features, items, etc. but all they added was cameos of streamers and a few characters from big games. Within 4 months of their release, how have they not managed to release a single update that brings new content in? How does a game like this expect to work…

    Is the game good? Yes Is it a good concept? Yes However I can not reccomend it. The game has been out since January. Bugs that were present since launch are still present. Menus bug out to the point you cant interact or you end up selecting something you didnt want. Game lags when leaving menus. When using controller, control prompts disappear and when you do use the correct button it doesnt work. The devs seem more interested in publicity through twitch rather than fixing their game. All…

    I finished it in less than 3 days. It's a really good and fun game. The whole point is inspecting people to see if they're infected, which is cool, although it can feel repetitive after a while. A cool little bonus is that characters from Dead by Daylight and streamers also appear as survivors. I recommend it.

    I randomly stumbled upon this gem after it was released in demo version, also certain "skeleton" Youtuber played it right after. I was immediatly hooked up into the idea of "Paper Please" but 3d and with zombies. You take a role of a military officer being set to inspect incoming survivors. You can send them into execution, Quarantine Zone or allow them to pass deeper into camp and await evacuation trucks. Pros: + Start easy, gets harder progressively + Campaign & Endless mode + 7 tools to…
