App of the Day: Dead Rising Mobile for iPhone [Video]

There’s a zombie horde attacking your iPhone! Thankfully Dead Rising Mobile , the pocket-sized version of the preferred console game, can provide loads of knives, shopping carts, golf clubs and frying pans that will help you put them down.

What is it?

Dead Rising Mobile, iPhone, $5 . Probably the most fun you could have smashing zombies in your iPhone, Dead Rising Mobile, like the console versions before it, taps into the lighter side of zombie killing-smashing them with objects that you simply’d never ordinarily consider weapons (though there are, needless to say, the requisite butchers knives and chainsaws, too.) The missions and gameplay are pretty straightforward, but they help push you along to seek out new how you can dispense with the bumbling masses. In the event you’re in trouble, one could shout out on your friends for help via Twitter or Facebook, and if the zombies infect you before your pals make it there you may reanimate as a different zombie in their game.

Who’s it good for?

People who like zombies; those that hate zombies; iPhone gamers with an appreciation of the morbid.

Why’s it better than alternatives?

Dead Rising is a trusted name in zombie killing entertainment, and they don’t drop the ball with the mobile version of the game. And while some games of this ilk can get a section repetitive, a stream of inventive new zombie-mauling tactics keeps things fresh. And, and!, the following update shall be iPad compatible.

How could or not it’s even better?

A slightly less linear track for missions can be nice-component of the appeal of zombies is that you simply’re left in your own devices to work out what to do. And graphically the game is nice, but not great.

You may grab Dead Rising: Mobile inside the App Store for $5.
