Zombie Rollerz
Pinball clashes against zombie
Zombies (the cute kind) are closing in. To stop them, you’ll need to assemble a squad, unleash deadly powers, and...seriously hone your pinball skills.
Zombie Rollerz fuses genres to create something entirely new: an action game that feels like tower defense.
The undead perpetually march toward you, and if they get too close, they’ll attack. Your only chance of survival is knocking a ball around the level and hitting the ghouls before they reach you.
Thankfully that’s never too difficult. Dotted lines show the path the ball will take when you whack it with either paddle, so you’re always sure to hit your target. And because the ball is too big to fall between paddles, you can focus on fending off the advancing waves.
It’s not game over if they reach you, though. Just slam the paddles when monsters draw near and they’ll fly backward, giving you a bit more time to line up another shot.
As you progress, unlock zany cartoon heroes with unique skills. Start with Burnjamin, a golem-like creature who scorches enemies and unleashes a devastating meteor shower. The polar bear Ursula, on the other hand, slows down the onslaught with ice and erects frozen walls that briefly trap foes.
Better yet, you can mix powers for awesome effects. Pair Ursula’s with Burnjamin’s to corral enemies, then drop a cosmic explosion on their undead noggins. That’s some solid teamwork!
