GrE writes, "Who can resist a Zombie game? I know we sure can't which is why Fort Zombie sounds pretty intriguing to us. An action RPG hybrid, Fort Zombie was unveiled at PAX 2009 on Friday. There aren't too many details just yet but Paradox Interactive's title promises that players will find themselves trapped in the small town of Piety, Indiana and up against a horde of zombies. As a little change from the usual zombie based games, this one focuses around survival rather than all out zombie slaughter. Players have to build a Fort to keep safe in, as well as scout around Piety for supplies and track down survivors. Paradox Interactive promises that players will be able to choose from a variety of daily tasks and the ability to build up the skillset for their chosen character.
Fort Zombie sounds like a pretty interesting concept and we at GamesAreEvil will be sure to keep you up to date with the development of this intriging title.
For now, check out the latest screenshots..."
In his weekly look back at Indie games from the last 2 years, Mike Fletcherr this week is looking at Fort Zombie.
'Fort Zombie: The zombie apocalypse has come. The world is in ruin, the military has failed, and what few survivors there are left lay hold up in their own homes, struggling from day to day to survive. Your job is to find a safe house, fortify it, gather supplies and other survivors, and withstand an approaching zombie horde. Sound good? Guess again.'
'Zombie Fort; no just don’t even bother, even if out of curiosity. If you’re stupid enough to actually buy this game, then you deserve the frustration you will be receiving once the game has coughed into existence on your machine.'
Kerberos Productions has released a new jam-packed update for its survival tactics game Fort Zombie, now available for download.
Diehard GameFAN writes: "When the decade closed out some, people might have remembered the last ten years as the rise of social networking such as Facebook, Twitter, and so on or one of the numerous other changes that occurred. Personally, I will always view the last decade as the return of the zombie genre. The number of movies and video games dealing with zombies just exploded, especially in video games in the last couple of years. In fact it is almost a little overwhelming, even to someone who likes zombies and zombie related media. Still for all of the games like Zombie Apocalypse, Left 4 Dead, Dead Rising, Wolfenstein, Call of Duty: World At War, House of the Dead, etc, there is still a lot of room for growth in the zombie game genre."
Looks like a cool concept I'd say
After Left 4 Dead, anything with a zombie, gets my vote of approval.
the Action/RPG combo sounds good though.
Hmm... another zombie game. whouda thunk it? Entirely expected yet i'm still intrigued. The critic in me says NO but the zombie in me says BRAAAAINS.
I'm starting to get bored of Nazi Zombies so this looks like a worthy distraction until the Winter release onslaught.
Anyone else stoked for Zombieland?
