Stand still and shoot
The premise of Stupid Zombies is simple. You play as a man who faintly resembles Ash Williams of the Evil Dead movies who shoots zombies while standing still. The zombies also stand still. You have a shotgun that shoots a single
bullet that ricochets
off walls and obstacles, helping you to take out multiple zombies at once. Once you take out all of zombies in a level, you win.
Like
Angry Birds
, you are given a score out of three stars at the end of each level.
The fewer bullets you use, the higher your score
. The game starts off simple but gets difficult quickly. You'll have to learn how to aim at very specific angles to take out multiple zombies. If you run out of bullets, you lose the level.
Get out of the way, thumb!
The biggest problem with Stupid Zombies is that your
thumb gets in the way
of setting the reticle, making precise aiming difficult. Luckily, you can drag the reticule so you can line up your shot a little bit easier.
Another annoying feature of Stupid Zombies is the ads. Most games these days include ads, but the ads in Stupid Zombies are particularly annoying. I received multiple
scammy ads
telling me my phone was infected by viruses. These ads are obviously created to deceive and are placed in a way that makes it easy to tap on one by accident.
Sort of fun but not worth the download
Stupid Zombies can be fun, but it's not worth your time. If want a physics based puzzle game, just play one of the many Angry Birds variants. If you want a zombie shooter, you're better off playing something like
Age of Zombies
.
