Fun to shoot at the zombies! Might be a little janky at times, and has that trend of leveling up not mattering since the bad guys scale to your level, but that's a small matter compared to an otherwise solid game.

Writing this just after unlocking the final achievement. To put it shortly, I recommend. Huge improvement over the first game. While the first game is mindnumbingly boring, this one is pretty fun. If you´re a completionist however, if you don´t have patience, you´ll come to learn it :)

Great game, but a little older. I like the weapon designs and choices, but combat is a little clunky and I feel like the physics is definitely weird. Great way to spend an evening.

Shout out to the golden era of iOS gaming 2010-2018. For years, I ditched PC gaming for mobile gaming, and this series was one of my go-to mobile games. It's corny as hell, but it scratches the right itch for zombie infested space shooters, loot collecting, log reading story telling (system shock), etc. It has several game modes and difficulties. For the era it came out in, the visuals worked.
