Learn what to do when zombies attack in Zogma

Just as you can never have too many zombie games, you can never start too many articles about zombies, pointing out that you can never have too many zombie games.

Guess what? Zogma: The Tactical Zombie Survival Simulator is another of those games, and this is another of those articles.

As the title suggests, Zogma's more of a thinking action game that has you controlling a group of trigger happy survivors who need to shoot the hordes of the living dead. Each level plays over simulated day-night period which you have to survive. The longer you survive, the higher you score.

Controlling your actions are the fixed firing positions your shooter can be moved between. Each has different arcs of fire so you have to keep moving between them to target different parts of the undead crowd.

Neatly, the zombies can attack and over run these positions too, which adds location, location, location into the tactical mix.

Other gameplay elements to consider include the different ways you can target zombies. Your shooters will fire automatically, but you can tap individuals to fire at individual zombies, or get everyone to fire at one zombie. Alternatively you can get a faster rate of fire using a tap and sweep movement, which gives you direct control over one shooter.

Of course, weapons are also a big part of the game, with various upgrades available, as well as grenades, and items such as barricades and extra health.

You can see how Zogma plays in the following video.
