Originality: 5.25
Aesthetic: 2.75
Story: 4.75
Personal: 0.25
Average: 3.25

It's safe to say I disliked this cover. I've spent more time than I cared to trying to figure out what I'm even looking at, and as near as I can tell, it's just a hand and some of an arm. The art isn't good enough for me to understand what's going on in the background, and way too much of this image is just blackness. The only reason I didn't go even lower with the Aesthetic score is a competent drawing of the hand and some details of the armor on the arm.

I guess it looks unique enough to warrant a slightly above average score on the Originality factor. It seems like it's probably a generic survival horror game, but bonus points for showing the aftermath of some horrific attack instead of the zombies themselves. And there's some semblance of a story here that a disaster has happened, but there's just not enough going on here to score higher.
