About PixZombies

Pix Zombies is a Zombie Smasher type arcade game. Smash all the zombies and save the world!

How to play PixZombies

You can work the whole thing out by playing it. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.

Why it is worth playing

Difficulty in PixZombies comes from the game itself rather than from waiting, unlocking or paying, which is rarer than it should be. It works as well on a phone on a bus as it does on a desktop.
