This was a rather good mobile title that seems to have made its way over to PC. I think I'm going to get it.

You basically control some supercarrier that you use to travel around the globe fighting a zombie outbreak. To do this, you buy vehicles, recruit soldiers, scientists, medics, etc., buy gear and equipment, research better technologies, etc. However, not all nations will cooperate with your efforts, so you often times have to fight government forces, as well.

You basically deploy your troops into relatively quick battles where the mission is to clear the area of zombies, rescue VIPs, recover important gear/equipment, etc. its a pretty neat idea and I look forward to being able to control things with a keyboard and mouse over the touch controls that could sometimes be cumbersome on an ipad.

So having resolutely promised to myself to buy no more games for a month in an attempt to at least look at some 9f the others I have now resolutely promised myself that I will be adding this to my library tonight.

Somewhat. I'm not really into zombie stuff, but the game looks cool and it's reasonably priced.

This is great fun on my iPad and was always hoping for a PC port. Instant buy.  O0

That carrier is sick, dude...

Looks like fun. I agree with folks on the touchscreen vs. mouse though. I really noticed a difference with Atlantic Fleet. A touchscreen is not the best interface for some games.

Until further notice, I'm calling this game X-ZOM.  Seems like a very cool concept.

Has anybody bought it?  I'd love to see an AAR or just some game play impressions.

JH,

Thanks for the tip (as usual!).  I just picked this up.  I haven't played it yet, but the premise reminds me of an interesting older game called Atom Zombie Smashers.

I may slide out of the office a bit early today so that I can give this a spin.

I called it X-Zom upthread! MINE
