Save your brain or die trying

You'll go like: "Blam! Make that nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine billion, nine hundred and ninety-nine million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine zombies..." and you will soon lose count and just press the damned trigger (or, mouse button, if you don't like a bit of roleplay). This could be a short description of the newly released PowerUp Studios game, NOMBZ: Night of a Million Billion Zombies.

Basically, this is a simple 3D action shooter that puts you in charge of a group of survivors fighting for... survival in a city infected with swarms of zombies - the same storyline you get if you watch any B-rated, low budget, zombie movie and something you will most likely enjoy - because killing hordes of slow moving, brain-eating monsters is always fun. Not to mention that the cast of characters is really varied, including a mad postal worker, a sexy maid and a huge, scary looking fellow that loves chainsaws and Molotov cocktails.

Also, this game allows you to choose one of the five playable characters, each with unique weapons and abilities and you'll have to eventually end the nightmare of 25 zombie-filled levels. And it does not only have an absolutely hilarious name, it has some really funny developers, too (or so it seems), since they say that their game has "a quirky and irreverent style".

Put all these together, combine them with a very easy to learn gameplay, a great soundtrack (a song called "Shoot The Zombies" by worldwide known band Songs To Wear Pants To is included) and tons of enemies and you will get the perfect time-killing, fast paced title.
