Animals of Mass Destruction do the most violent things

The goriest mobile game featuring taser-toting chickens you'll ever see

Animals of Mass Destruction do the most violent things

Mistreat animals at your peril. You might think you can pull your cat's tail or lock him out in the rain, but you'll regret it when he launches himself onto your face with claws akimbo in the middle of the night. Or poos in your shoes.

Just thank God he can't use a flamethrower. Imagine a nightmare world where animals have: a) opposable thumbs, and, b) a working knowledge of weaponry and martial arts. We're talking kittens doing kung fu. Puppies with shotguns. Chickens wielding tasers.

That's the premise of Animals of Mass Destruction, a new mobile game for Symbian phones. And no, we're not joking about the chickens. The game sees you saving the world from terrorist evil, which basically involves lots of gore and destruction.

The game has 35 levels of blasting, with seven bosses to fight along the way. You even get to capture human hostages and torture them gruesomely. It sounds genius, frankly. The game's out now to buy from publisher DVide Arts' website, or portals like Handango.
