John Mayer, the main hero of the game lives a careless life of an upstart in his native town - Snake
City. Seemingly, he doesn't lack anything, but the truth is that his dissolute and largely irresponsible
lifestyle earned him very little respect from the local inhabitants, despite his huge fortune. Even the
object of his amorous desires, pretty, devoted and sarcastic woman resists his undeniable charm and thick
wallet (don't forget: it's still only a game!). For these reasons, even an experienced person would have
a hard time deciding whether the hero's glass of satisfaction is half full or half empty.
Unfortunately, the events start rolling fast and there is no time to deal with personal trouble.
Professor Hoffman Vangele, a respected authority in a lot of complicated scientific areas and frequent,
and we should add unsuccesful, visitor of patent office ('I'm sorry, Mr Vangele, Mr Tesla has just been
here with this'), decided to leave a permanent and indubitable trace of himself. This decision results in
the city that is filled with bloodthirsty zombies, strangely mutated professor's lackeys that terrorize
decent inhabitants, and the federal government which doesn't know what to do with the increasing problem.
The title Pound of Ground is really fitting. Don't expect to find too much correctness, don't look for
anything academic: the main hero is in real trouble and that can only be countered with rough,
uncompromising, strong action.
The game combines action elements - a wide range of advanced weapons, fights with various bosses and
spectacular, endless battles with the crowds of the undead - with a gripping story full of unexpected
disclosures and peculiar characters. It's quite a thing to cruise the streets of Snake City and its
surroundings in your supervehicle, that you tuned yourself, which slightly tips the scales in favour of
your survival.
