Game Review: Zombie Air Sniper

    It was the Fall of the year when the plague came. Roughly half of the population either died outright or were in the process of turning into zombies. They prowled at night, gorging mindlessly on anything they could obtain, but human flesh was their favorite sustenance.
    What was left of the military from The Great War rallied to protect the people. Men like myself, with a military background, were pressed into service in many capacities. I became a gunner on a helo. Our first mission came on my very first night, my first flight.
    Some folks in an isolated farmhouse had a ham radio and had called for help. It was a large 3-story house and refugees were fleeing to it from the surrounding countryside. Unfortunately, zombies were streaming toward it as well.
    I can't describe the pressure as we circled the old house. I, as the only gunner, was all that stood between good, decent people and a horrible death. With shaking hands, I put the scope on the first moving target. He was shambling along, blank stare, half naked and blood on his jowls. I squeezed the trigger and put him down. There was no time for gloating. I saw normal humans sprinting toward the house and zombies approaching from all directions.
    Hey, everyone. Just thought I would immerse myself in the game a bit. I bought this game for  a mere 99 cents and it is fun. As you level up and get more accurate weapons you become a dangerous man. It is clear that the zombies chose the wrong farmhouse.
    There are automatic guns, on tripods, which surround the house. If you shoot the guns, they start blowing zombies away automatically, which lightens your load a bit. If the zombies clump up, take out several at once with a rocket. Shooting crates yields extra ammo.
    The same company has a very similar game called Steel Rain. I read a review on the app store that indicated that Steel Rain was just like Zombie Sniper except that it had more screens and chapters. It is also 99 cents.
    For the money, this is a fun action game and I think I'll buy Steel Rain also.
    Have a good evening. I'm CE Wills.

Four Free Games

     Hey, everyone. If free games makes the start of a new week a little better, we're in luck. Check these out on your friendly, neighborhood app store. 1) Cowboys vs. Aliens vs. Ninjas- This is a dual stick shooter, much like Mini-Gore . You are an old-west cowboy with a vast array of weapons (earned gradually). You have to move and shoot, avoiding death, as you battle Ninjas and aliens. Some aliens are quite large. Some enemies are big Sumo Wrestlers. There are sword-wielding ninjas and these aliens that yield a mini-nuclear explosion when killed. When your enemies die they leave behind little stacks of money, or skulls. You collect these items because of a strange hobby of trophy grabbing for your macabre collection. Just kidding, the items can be spent or used as the game progresses. This is a good game and I played it for a while last night. 2) The Heist - A puzzle game with a twist. As you try to open a bank vault, you must face a series of different puz...

Game Review: NFS, Hot Pursuit

    This game was one which I refused to download for a while, even though it was on sale for 99 cents. I thought that it looked boring and narrow. Boy, was I wrong! This game totally kicks butt. It is one of those rare games that will actually give you an adrenaline rush. It is that intense. The developers, EA Games, have recently updated the app to include two main avenues of play. You can either be the cops or the racers who are trying to evade the cops. As a racer you have to deal with cops trying to hit you and make you crash, cops buzzing you with helicopters, oncoming traffic, tack strips spread across the road and roadblocks. In the cop mode you are a cop and you are trying to stop a reckless racer by any means, fair or foul. As a racer you can use nitrous oxide for increased speed, overdrive capability and oil slicks. You also can jam the cops communication with a jamming unit. Like almost all games these days, it gets harder as you go along. I prefer my games to...

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

    Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to.     Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends.      I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As...
