Alien Zombie Death review

Alien Zombie Death. They couldn't have given it a better name if they tried. A) Because it's awesome, and B) Because it pretty much rounds up the three things in this game - Aliens, Alien Zombies, and lots of dying (both for you and the Alien Zombies!).

"Play game" is your only option in this one, but nevermind. The disappointment felt from there only being one gameplay mode is offset by both the fact that this game has Alien Zombies in it, and the awesome music (a rarity over the last few Minis! I was starting to go mad due to the amount of shitty music!). After selecting to play the game, you get to choose the planet that you want to play on - Fondi being your only option until you have unlocked lots of medals in order to progress to the other planets. After selecting the planet and reading the tip screen, you are ready to go!

The controls are very simple. There's only a couple to remember. You're on a weird network of platforms, one underneath the other. Use the left and right D-Pad buttons to navigate left and right along these, and the up and down arrows to go up or down to the platform above or below (you can also use Triangle or X to move up or down). L1 is used to shoot to the left, whereas R1 is used to shoot to the right (again, square can also be used to shoot the to the left, and circle can be used to shoot the right if you prefer these controls). Run around like the hectic little dude inn a spacesuit that you are, and destroy as many creepy green Alien Zombies as you can in order to to gain as many points as possible, whilst watching out for electricity and other
random traps that appear now and then. That's really all there is to this game. It's really just straight up shooting. Sure, the art style is fantastic, as are the sound effects, but it's still just a game consisting entirely of shooting.

Whether that is a bad thing or not is up to you, really. Even so, i'd still fully recommend it as one of the best Mini titles there. Despite the fact that there's only one game mode, and it's just a shooter, it is really still a lot of fun, and it's great value for money. There are a lot of different levels to keep you busy, and even after doing that, you can still try and beat your own best score on every level. Again, a recommendation from me.
