Zombie Shooter

In short:
Remember Alien Shooter? It’s like that, only shorter and not as good.
In slightly more detail:
You may remember that I was pretty fond of Alien Shooter: Vengeance. Zombie Shooter is virtually the same game, except the objective is supposed to be mowing down hordes of zombies instead of aliens. That probably sounds good to you, but the problem is that most of these zombies are not of the shambling variety. In fact, I’d say they are of the “re-skinned alien” variety. I don’t think a lot of people would picture mutated zombies with shoulder-mounted rocket launchers. Many of these “zombies” have missile weapons, and that would be okay to an extent, but it all causes the game to lose any semblance of a zombie massacre. Sigma Team might as well have called this Alien Shooter 3.
Even that wouldn’t be accurate though; the levels are much smaller, there are fewer objectives, and the action just isn’t as intense. Sure, there are a few times when your jaw will drop when you see the horde coming at you, but this game is infinitely easier than Alien Shooter: Vengeance. I didn’t even cheat!
Final Thoughts:
I know this review is astonishingly short, but really if you want to know what this game is like, read my Alien Shooter review and change the title of the game. Zombie Shooter is a fun game, but it is not as good as the games before it. I’d say it’s worth $5 on a good day.
