I downloaded this game yesterday, and got very totally addicted to it. Basically you play as a member of a small group of survivors in a zombie-infested city. You basically need to wander around, find supplies, make money and of course, survive.
It's an open-ended game, so there isn't any set specific goal. You might spend your whole time as a renegade hunting down all the zombies you can, or you may make it your duty to conquer every hideout that exists in the city. It's basically all about amassing wealth, getting better weapons, and doing missions.
There are three alignments present in the city. There's a crew of rebels, shown by the red headbands they wear, and the SWAT team, obviously wearing their uniforms, then ordinary, neutral citizens. The rebels and the officers will fire upon each other whenever they see each other, but neither group will shoot neutral citizens, unless they've been angered for some reason. In case you're wondering, you have the option of belonging to any of the three factions. Neutral is best for the beginners, because you'll only have to worry about getting killed by zombies, and generally not about getting shot. Plus, if you see a firefight between members of the other two factions, you can pick up the scraps left behind when the battle is over (free guns and supplies FTW!).
Taking control of the occupied buildings around the city is quite a lucrative endeavor. With your first claimed building, you will earn 20 cents for every zombie you kill, where previously, you'd get no monetary reward. That amount increases by 20 cents with every captured building. With one or two buildings claimed, you will sometimes have a partner following you, but once you've got a total of three buildings, you're guaranteed to always have one person accompanying you wherever you may go. This number can increase until you have three people with you at all times. The more difficult the buildings you tackle, the better weapons your squad will carry. At first they'll just have knives or pistols, but in the later levels, you may have them carrying flamethrowers, SAWs (squad automatic weapon, according to the game), and possibly even laser guns!
Now, since this is intended to be a family-friendly board, I'll only show the screenshots that aren't demonstrating the amount of gore in the game. I'll still link to them, so just know that if you choose to click on the link, you'll probably be seeing something "mature." It's pretty bloody, so you might not want to play if you're easily grossed out. So here are some pictures of the adventures of Loofiloo, the neutral-aligned salesman.

The map is randomly generated for every game, so with every new character, there's a new city to explore. The contents of every building are also randomly generated, so you may encounter a rebel/SWAT firefight at one point, then come back later to find a bunch of zombies and some loot.
