Thejimquisition: "I must confess a fair amount of fondness for Dead Island, Techlands admittedly messy foray into tropical zombie mayhem. While not a particularly polished game, it carried with it a certain charm, marrying cooperative role-playing mechanics to hack n slash undead slaughter. Unfortunately, attempts to capitalize on the original games apparent success have failed to gain much traction. Dead Island Riptide felt like a tepid placeholder that refused to address the original games many varied problems, and while I barely even noticed the release of Dead Island Epidemic, the popular opinion seems to be that I didnt miss much. Sadly, the same is true for Deep Silvers latest spin on the series, with Escape Dead Island coming across as little more than a rushed attempt to remind us the franchise exists while Dead Island 2 remains in production."
