Zombie Game For The iPhone


Introducing a new iPhone interactive game made by sumiguchi and spriteattack, Zombie Dash - this is not your typical “zombie bashing/killing” game, less of the gore more on the thrill. The game is packed with puzzles, survival and hair raising fun.

The game is a dungeon crawler with a lot of puzzles to solve and zombie infested labyrinths to get through. Be quick and think fast as zombies are just waiting to get a meal out of you.

Zombie Dash incorporates a lot of creative features that makes the most out of the iPhone touchscreen functionality. The game controls are creative and very interactive which makes it very interesting and fun to play.

Controls and mechanics

You can control the character by the virtual analog trackball. Fast and tricky to use first time, you can easily feel the rush when a zombie comes and try to eat your character. You have to spin the trackball in order to move the character. On the side of the virtual trackball is the life bar. When you get hit or being bitten, naturally the lifebar depletes and if it is too low you should drag the injection icon to the heart icon which is at the tip of the life bar.

Aside from the zombies, there are traps and other critters that will hinder you from getting out of the dungeon. You have to find a key that will unlock the next level.

Zombie dash uses the multi-touch cleverly by implementing a defense system if ever an enemy will jump on you. When the enemy touches the character, you will have to trace a pattern on the screen, once done the enemy will be destroyed or shaked off but the damage you got still remains. The patterns are Circle, Slash and three points that you will have to press on screen. If you’re fast to perform these, you will receive less damage.

Like a lot of single player games, Zombie Dash has leaderboards and trophies according to your achievements. The game is a bit repetitive once you play it long enough or you get frustrated on a hard level.

Anyway, Zombie Dash is a good game to pass the time. It is compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch.
