World War, Crime City, iMobster are things of the past. What's in? Location-based MMO. I can name a couple of good location-based MMO right now in the App Store, but Please Stay Calm definitely stands out. Why is this game better than the rest?
What is Please Stay Calm?
- Please Stay Calm is the world's first true location based, massively multiplayer, zombie apocalypse role playing game developed by Massive Damage, Inc.
Features:
- Massively multiplayer zombie survival gameplay

- The simple but tense scavenging mini-game will keep you on your toes
- Work with other survivors in your area to build the most powerful safehouse in your city
- Duel with other survivors to prove your combat skills
- Buy and upgrade awesome weapons like the Chainsaw
- Global chat to talk to your fellow survivors
- Episodic storyline with gorgeous graphic novel cinematics
- Kill zombies, build outposts, upgrade safehouses and rule your city, and perhaps the world!

IMHO:
Pros
- The idea of safe house was nice. Before you can join a safe house, you have to donate a certain amount of Supplies (depending on safe house level).
- Once a member of a safe house, members has to help each other building upgrades to their safe house to protect it from zombies.
- Team work is essential
- You actually have to scavenge to survive everyday
- Hunting zombies are fun and requires strategy
- Weapons are appropriate in the genre. My personal favorite - Crossbow!
- Graphics are really nice. If you like comic graphics, you will appreciate this game more
- Health and energy generates quickly, that means you can come back and play the game right in faster phase
Cons
- Attacking other players could use some work. There are times that high level players can spam kill you. I don't even know how they do it.
- As a new player, it's tough to join a safe house due to high supply requirements
- Global chat is limited. I believe you start with 20 tokens (you need tokens to participate in global chat).
- Misc. items could be useful, but right now they you can only sell them
- Duel system (other players) can use some work. There are times that a low level player can still beat you in duels. Some Duel add-ons are not effective either
Things to improve
- More weapons
- Utilize miscellaneous items
- Improve duel system
- More zombies!
- Safe house vs Safe house (coming soon)
Latest update: 1.1.3
Massive Damage, Inc. addresses a lot of issues and added some awesomeness to the game. My personal favorite is the fact that you can heal other players, which costs stamina points. My other favorite is you can hire other players to assist you while hunting zombies. That said, I can see myself playing this game for a while. The strategic part of the game is pretty deep, it also requires good decision making. Health pack in the game isn't cheap. Upgrades and weapon repairs isn't cheap either. In addition, people attack you almost every hour. Not only you could lose health points, but supplies and cash as well. How will you survive? It's all up to you.
