ZombieHunter [7DA] – iPhone App Review

ZombieHunter 7DA ($0.99)

Version – 2.1.2

REVIEW – “Nonstop action and excitement with zombies!”

There are a lot of big developers out there releasing high quality 3D content inside iPhone and iPod Touch apps and games.  Well ZombieHunter 7DA is an excellent 3D game created by a small company and the result is amazing!  Not only are the graphics inscredible, the game play is creative, fast-paced and deep!

When you open up ZombieHunter the first thing you see is a short little movie and then an opening splash screen.  Once you touch the screen you’ll be taken directly to the main menu.  The menu is very visually pleasing and is extremely simple.  There are four different buttons that allow you to start a game in “History” mode or in “Survival” mode, as well as an Options button and a High score list.

Once you are ready to play all you have to do is select which game mode to start.  In “History” mode you’ll have various different objectives and a storyline as you kill zombies.  In “Survival” mode the basic idea is that you see how long you can last before the zombies can overtake you!  It is important before you get started that you head to the “Options” menu though and set everything up the way that you want it.

Something that I would definitely recommend is that you start this game on the “Easy” difficulty setting the first time.  The controls take a little getting used to.  I know what you’re thinking, “aren’t the controls kind of a make or break deal?”  Well usually that would be the case, but in this situation it’s just a different case!  The reason is that the controls are only a little difficult because it uses a kind of “dual-stick” method that I’ve not ever see in any other iPhone/iPod Touch games to this point.

I’ll have to admit that I was definitely very impressed with this game overall.  The best thing is that it is really fun for gamers of all skill levels.  Not only does it offer an “easy” and  “normal” victory, but it also offers a hard and “Nightmare” difficulty level!  Another great touch to this game is the high score list.  The high score list does not use any external services like OpenFeint but it still gives you the opportunity to see your scores compared to people all around the world!

The performance of this app is where it really shines!  From the amazingly fast and intuitive controls in-game all the way down to the highly optimized local and global high score lists this app is just a blast to play all the way around!  Whether you’re an experienced zombie killer, or you’re just looking for an app that can entertain you for a buck, You should head to the App Store today and check this app out!
