Description: This game features the Chinese Zombie stories. Inspired by the Hong Kong movie in 1985, Mr Vampire series, we build up a game with the fantastic Chinese spells and scary scenes in order to bring players back to the amazing horror movie. In this game, the player will play as the role of “Wan, Zhu-Sheng”, and go the “Qian-Shan Village” to take his uncle’s body back to hometown for rest in peace. Since zombies appear on his way to the village, Wan falls in danger and almost died. But luckily, he learns the spell of Taoist, and start his adventure to the “Qian-Shan Village”…
Review: ‘Qian-Shan Village’ is a Chinese themed horror action game in which you will be using thing slike Rosemary beads to ward off the walking dead. While all the narration for this game is in Chinese there is at least an English translation. But graphically is sadly where the game starts to fall apart. From the terrible animations to the dark, almost unseeable environments, it just doesn’t look good at all. But the gameplay is this games nail in the coffin (or so to speak). The action is lame, the attacks are weak and pointless and there is simply nothing here that feels exciting other than the badly translated storyline. I definitely wouldn’t pay £14.49 for this, probably not even half, but maybe a quid or two max. If this game was released 5 years ago I might have been impressed, but certainly not these days.
