I walk with Zombies Vol. 2
I walk with Zombies Vol. 2 starts up right where Vol. 1 leaves off. Which is actually a good thing as this is quite a story focused VN.
So for those of you that have not played the first one, I'll do a small recap. The zombie apocalypse has happened, the main...I guess we'll call him a protagonist though that is questionable at best started day one by being bit. However, instead of turning into a zombie he passes out for 3 days and awakens in a state where Zombies don't pay him any attention.
Using this 'power' of his he is able to move around the city unhampered and through some unique encounters with the girl next door, he makes a pretty good plan on how to survive in the end times. However, this plan changes after he stumbles onto a trio of siblings. Enter Mitsuki and her two brothers. Our protag helps them by providing them food and other supplies, in return, he makes an agreement with Mitsuki that she gives her body to him.
Before you take things the wrong way, she agrees even if at first it is because she's scared that he will leave them there without the ability to survive or get food. Overtime however she finds that she actually has feelings for him and he makes plans to move all of them to the mountains where they can live in ease.
However, plans always change at the end of the world, and an unnamed man attempts to take control of Mitsuki. In the fight that breaks out one of her brothers is killed, the other seriously injured and our protag kills the man for Mitsuki.
Now, our protag and the small group enter Town Hall and join up with more survivors. During this time the brother that is injured ends up in the care of the Vice President of the facility and the only Doctor, Ms. Makiura.
During the 2nd volume the childhood friend of Mitsuki that she thought dead reappears and makes it known to our protag that he's not welcomed or wanted. To that end, the protag agrees to let the friend take care of Mitsuki and her brother. The protag then shows a more selfless side as he is the one who agrees to bury Mitsuki's brother by himself. He believes that the death of her brother falls upon him and his lack of being able to fully protect them.
During this time our protag joins a group to help secure food and supplies for the Town Hall, this leads them into dangerous situations dealing with the zombies of the city.
Not to spoil too much of the story let me at the very least say this, as Mitsuki is no longer 'with' the protag that is when he finds himself with you guessed it, the Doctor.
I don't want to spoil too much so to wrap this up let me say this, this Visual Novel brings about some good points about the end of the world scenario and puts a lot of things in question. The protag is fundamentally someone that most people will dislike because of his personality type and because of the actions he does especially with certain women.
That said even the Doctor realizes that for all his faults and all his difference of idealism compared to others he still has some sense of honor and respects even if he doesn't show it often. He cares deeply for certain people and he would do what he needed to keep them...though it may not exactly be the reason she thinks.
This game shows little to no gore, but it does have H-Scenes and has some harsh dialogue. So up to you on if you wish to take part in this or not.
