I absolutely love this low budget game. If you loved the Zombotron flash games, you'll enjoy the steam game. My criticism is that it is short and pricey for what it is. Expect around 5 hours to finish the game. I finished the game twice with different weapons.

VERY GOOD GAME, but do not expect it to be like the Flash variants. There are a lot of people misleading buyers. This game does have its similarities but it is pretty different as well. Remember how many times you died in the other Zombotron Games? Yeah? Guess what, multiply it by 3, that's how many times you're gonna die in this game. OHHHH, by the way, death is more punishing in this game. If you have no checkpoints, the level will simply restart and you will lose all of your progress. Even with checkpoints this can happen, but you have a few more lives to complete the level. I don't recommend the game to people with Anger issues. This game is very hard and satisfying... but it can be a pain in the butt as well Play the Flash Games if you believe this game is too hard; it's not worth getting angry over a bloody game.

I was feeling nostalgic so I remembered I used to play this game series all the time in my computer lab throughout elementary school. I remember playing this game on coolmathgames or another flash website but was only able to finish the first game with the time I had in class. I got halfway through the second game and the third. Until the other day I decided to finish all the games and was surprised that there was another game on steam. I beat all the games going into this game expecting a soft reboot but was pleasantly surprised to find out that this game is connected to the others. Positives I am pleased to say that all these games are a treat and bring me back. I love the story of the games and how they are all connected. You can really see the developers evolution through the games and how much they have improved in game design, the leap in graphics and the world itself from the first game to this is astounding. They really did a good job using their knowledge of the first games and improving upon it. The music and sound design is incredible too, and you can see they also improved in this aspect as well. The ambiance this game really immerses you. They also keep some of the old sounds from the flash series which is very nostalgic. The animations are very good in this game compared to the first where each gun had the same reload, a pump action reload even if you had a minigun in hand. They really put time and effort into this game you can tell in every aspect: the graphics, the story, the gameplay, the enemy design, character design. A lot of the enemies from the previous games make a return but they have a slightly refreshed design but they keep the main aspects similar to the flash series. Which is nice to see. The core gameplay remains the same with a few new additions of weapons and gear. A huge leap is the gear system. In the flash series you could only buy armour for your character but in this game there is a whole brand new inventory system, and a rarity system for gear and weapons. This is a very welcome change because it adds depth to the game encouraging you to explore and find hidden areas, when you find the secrets it is very rewarding because most of the time the game will give you something better that what you already had. My only complaint is I wish there was a way to increase inventory size because about halfway through the game you dint have much space for new gear forcing you to sell your old stuff to make room for new things or having to get rid of some useful items to make room for some ammo or gear. The UI is very clean, even in the flash series but they definitely polished it in this game. Story (I will keep this section short because I don't want to spoil anything but I encourage you to play the flash series to get the full experience.) The story is intriguing and I like how you learn little things about the planet and the main narrative through out the game, using not just text but through environmental storytelling as well. Its just enough information to keep you guessing but it also keeps you in the dark, eager to keep playing and learn more about it. Negatives However these games do have its flaws albeit very few. In all the games even in the especially in the flash series a lot of the enemies tend to one shot aim bot you through the whole game, this game did do a better job at mitigating this but the golden robots are the bane of my existence. Any enemy with a ranged attack just knows where you are all the time, and can flick on you like they are a pro CS player its so BS i'm convinced doing a deathless run on the flash version is impossible but a deathless run on this game is very possible but very difficult. Any mission with a companion is an absolute drag because they get themselves killed and sometimes they get themselves stuck on a platform above you that you cant get to forcing you to restart the level. Sometimes you get killed trying to revive them also forcing a restart. This game does do a better job at this only having 1 level with a companion unlike the flash series which has multiple LONG missions with a companion. Another mission that is an absolute pain is the vehicle missions, more so the big vehicle. In the flash series the cars tend to get stuck on a single box or 2x4 plank even though you are in a huge monster truck or an actual heavy duty construction dump truck, sometimes the vehicle gets flipped over and no matter what you do you cant flip it back so you have to restart. The cars also need more health because sometimes a single explosion brings it down to a one shot pending a restart. Bugs I didn't experience many but at the start of the game I died at a shop and upon restart I purchased a gun but it didn't spawn in, taking my money in the process forcing me to restart. (this was also apparent in the flash series) There is another bug where sometimes you get flung into the air at mach 7 and get phased into a wall where you can't move forcing you to restart. This happened to me on the final mission forcing a restart of the final boss. Improvements As for any improvements they can make on the future games especially the remaster I would say give vehicles more health, improve the handling so they don't get stuck on single items and add a flip over button so you don't have to restart. For the companions give them more health and improve the AI so they actually follow you instead of getting themselves killed and stuck in unreachable places. I hope they fix the rubble mission in the reboot to make it less frustrating because that mission took me forever to complete, because I kept dying trying to revive them. And sometimes the boss would body block me from reviving my teammate and failing the mission because they would bleed out. I would also say make the enemies not one shot you all the time, or at least make the projectiles themselves a 2 shot so you have a change to react. Most of the time you wont even be able to see an enemy and before you can blink a rocket or acid ball is headed straight for your face. I think improving the respawns would be good especially during bossfights because the boss might kill you on the respawn just spawn killing you over and over. Overall rating Even with this games flaws I still think the core experience, story, music, UI, and gameplay far outshines any negatives. You can tell the devs put all they had into these games and I hope it gets a sequel because each game ends with a cliffhanger and im dying to see how the story ends for all the characters. With all that being said, 9.5/10 worth your time for all the games. Thank you to the devs for making these games and I'm glad I found this series on coolmathgames randomly at school, Thank you for the time you spent on this amazing game thank you for all your hard work and thank you for the memories, I hope we can see where this story ends.

This game is from my childhood when I used to play it on flash game websites such as Friv and Yepi i recomend this game mostly to people who tried the flash versions first because there are like 3 zombotron games in flash format on google: Zombotron 1 Zombotron 2 and Zombotron the time machine there is also a mobile version but i didnt like the controls. Very nice game!
