Down with the sickness of Zombie Infection

Published September 29, 2010 | By RottenOne

Now you can really take your zombie ass kicking to a whole new level with Zombie Infection. You’ll get your hands dirty in this first person shooter where you’re on the streets armed with shotguns and your wits.

Things start off easy as you’re dropped off and work your way through a couple of waypoints. But the zombies are coming so you can’t just stand around. And while you’re out there you need to check in the crates and other hidden stashes to see if there’s any spare ammo or guns laying around. Besides the zombies coming at you, there’s a lot to pay attention to. Zombie shooter and scavenger hunt!!

The controls are actually quite cool. You have one control for movement and another for looking around. This is very similar to Left for Dead, Resident Evil and other console games. In fact the game feels very much like your playing a console game. The graphics are well done, the sound is really good and the game is quite immersive. You’re not just going to sit back and idly play along. You’re in the thick of it!

You have certain tasks you need to complete to move on to the next section, so it’s not the same thing over and over again. And it’s not just shooting the zombies, you need to work your way through the levels to find out who created and released the virus that caused all the problems. Plus, you get a little help, a news crew has unfortunately been thrown into the thick of things with you. You get to switch back and forth as to who you want to play as.

There’s a little bit of everything and little bit for everyone in this game. It’s a well done zombie survival game with great graphics and excellent game play. I grabbed this game when the price dropped so you might be able to catch it on sale if you’re willing to wait. However, if you need to jump in right now, there’s an iPhone/iPod Touch version and the full blown HD version for the iPad. Ironically, I have both and they look and play equally well on both devices. Impressive all the way around!

Zombie Escape

Published September 29, 2010 | By RottenOne

There is just no end to the zombie horde! All that zombie mayhem you created in the other games is finally coming back to haunt you! The citizens need to be saved! The zombie pandemic has hit!

Zombie Escape is a line drawing and action/adventure game. People have fled to the streets in panic and you need to draw a path for them to follow to the helicopters. Zombies roam the roads and can block the way to safety. In this case, it’s bombs away so you can clear a path. Or maybe you need to drop in some rifles?

For those that like line drawing games like Flight Control this is right up your alley. More and more citizens need to be saved while more and more zombies fill the screen. You need to get enough people on board the helicopter before it takes off. But it can be surrounded as well so you have to keep it from being overrun. A helicopter full of victims looks like a tasty treat! Things can get pretty panicky once you have helicopters on the ground but you’re still waiting for people to climb on board.

This is a fun little game with good graphics and plenty of overhead carnage. It’s all fun and games to start off with, but once the zombies increase in number and strength you’ll have to decide how to deal with them. There’s lots of action and weapons upgrades you can work with. You also need to manage your resources. Nothing in life is free, so don’t expect to saturation bomb the area to survive. Weapons cost money!

This is an amusing little time waster and the people are so thankful when they make it to a helicopter! It’s cheap entertainment and should keep you in good form for when the real zombie apocalypse comes!

I think this is another game that actually plays better on the iPad since you can see and select the objects more easily. Oh that iPad, it makes me so happy.

It’s time to do the ZombieSmash!

Published September 28, 2010 | By RottenOne

Plants vs. Zombies isn’t the only zombie tower defense out there. Actually, there’s dozens, but let’s stay focused. ZombieSmash is another tower defense where you protect your precious home from the incoming zombie invasion. At first, you simply flick the little devils off the screen with your fingers, sending them on a wild ride as their bodies twist and turn before crashing into the ground with a mighty thud. And if the crash is good enough you can watch the reply in slow motion. That alone is quite entertaining and satisfying, but there’s more.

As you thwart their dastardly attempts, they get bigger and tougher. But as they say, when the going gets tough, the tough get bigger guns! Bring on the onslaught! Soon you’ll be laying down suppressive fire with your shotgun. You’ll lace the ground with landmines and watch them reach all new heights. You’ll be hunkered down with a fistful of ammo and a bad attitude. Let the carnage begin!

It’s a simple game, but sometimes simple is better. No need to get bogged down in strategy and military precision. All you need is more ammo and you’ll get through this!

The graphics are simple, but work exceptionally well for the environment. The game has been updated with lots of upgraded weapons such as a wrecking ball, some liquid nitrogen and even a large boulder that you can crush them all with. Who doesn’t need that in a zombie game?

You can play in campaign mode, siege mode or if you just want some casual wanton zombie destruction you can sit back with the sandbox mode and let ‘er rip.

I got this game quite awhile ago and it just cracks me up every time. Of course, I’ve decided to give it a try on the iPad and like so many other games, it works really well. Yes, you’re upsizing the graphics a little, but it’s not enough to cause any real problems. In fact, it’s probably easier to grab the little zombie devils on the larger screen.

Either way this should be another stop on your zombie smashing adventures. It’s cheap entertainment that will keep you coming back for more! Ozzy does the Zombie Stomp, you can do the ZombieSmash!
