Must be some kind of theme I’ve got going here, because I segue from one action-heavy mindless shoot-o-rama into another one, this time called Zombie Shootout.

With a name like Zombie Shootout, you can probably guess the plot almost instantly–yes, you will shoot zombies. Lots of them. You will be in a boarded up house with three open, interconnected rooms, and zombies will approach those barricades and attempt to get in.  You, meanwhile, must kill them all before they can kill you.  You’ll get a variety of upgrades, including better weapons, better barricades, and the ever popular sentry gun, that opens fire on any zombie (thankfully, not you) that happens to wander in front of it and will do so until it runs out of ammo.

You’ll have to survive twenty waves, and failure is met by the ever-popular “you failed at life” slogan (what’s next, epic fail?).  It’s definitely a fun little time waster, if a bit monotonous, and I don’t think I’m overstepping my bounds saying that the ending you get really isn’t worth the twenty rounds of time you invested, but if you can’t get enough of peeling zombie heads off zombie necks, then this is definitely a game you’ll want to try.
