Pros:
-Nice variety in the sandbox: each zombie and enemy class has its own behaviors.
-Plenty of a variety of different kinds of scares: fear of starvation, dehydration, exposure, confinement, jump scares, dread, etc..
-It runs immediately as soon as you've installed it. Just be sure to uncheck EAC and it'll work fine. I know this sounds like something you'd take for granted, but very, very few of my Steam games run without game-killing issues that prevent you from playing it at all. *ahem* Echelon: Wind Warriors *ahem ahem*.
-Incredibly fun as a co-op game.
-Grungy without being a limited palette.

Cons:
-It's a WiP. Expect glitches. (e.g. remember to always, always skinny dip if you need to cross a body of water. Otherwise you'll drown on dry land.)
-My system is about three years old. It's resource intensive due to the large number of objects and textures.
-It can be a slow grind at times, but I'm still experimenting with the game as it develops to make things go faster.
-Limited character creation options. Needs a boobie size option.
-Once you're out of the tutorial, the game doesn't explain much at all. They've got text documents in-game, but aside from that, you're on your own in a very complex crafting sim. I've had to learn much of what I know from my friends who played it before me. Sitting and reading and sifting through wiki articles isn't a game--it's prep for playing, sure, but it's way inferior to games that have at least the option of hand-holding.
-I wish more games would give foley the attention it needs. It seems games like this either have ancient stock sound clips, a limited variety of sound or voice clips, or have corny human imitations of animal and environmental sounds.

YMMV:
-Stripper zombies.
-I haven't tried PvP yet. The game is already very difficult, I can imagine this mode is only for people who have gotten bored with the co-op and SP versions.
-It's a difficult game. Very easy to die when the difficulty is set to default. Expect to restart at least a dozen times before you get to Day 8 alive. It's also very rewarding because of the challenge.

8/10 buy it!
