Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Our experts review games, movies and tech over countless hours, so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about our reviews policy.

Is there no end to the abundant joy that’s been provided over the years by that most retarded of foils, the zombie? No, apparently not. The screenshots for this might look a bit kiddy, but the puzzling work definitely hits the mark like a shovel to the jugular.

Take control of a trio of zombies who must rid the world of aliens, using each character’s unique moves and powerups. Want a zombie on a motorbike to drive you safely across nail-ridden hardboard in an industrial network of corridors? Want a zombie’s almost-but-not-quite detachable arm to help you climb up those extra high ledges? Want a zombie with tentacles to, uh, slime around walls and generally move slowly like a lumbering manatee, while the background music enthuses you suitably and you find yourself delighted by ingenious puzzles? You’ve come to the right game.
