Bored and stuck in your home Quarantined? Wishing you could kill some Zombies, but have less than five dollars in your bank account? Well head on over to the Microsoft store and grab this little exclusive. You know you love killing zombies. "Zombies Ruined My Day" is non stop zombie killing. It has 27 levels of action packed shooting over three different areas. A Office building, a rooftop, and a Carnival. After you kill waves and waves of zombies you get to take out a unique boss to advance to the next area. The bosses are all hilariously designed to challenge you as well as make you laugh,from crazy clowns to giant worms. There are also six different zombies as well. They all attack in different styles, and even drop certain things to aid in your survival. You have common zombies, military ones that drop ammo, construction ones that drop barriers, even punk rock ones that bounce around. You never really know what to expect in your first play through. The different types can make it really challenging, but not to the point where you want to throw in the towel. There is also continues so you can fail over and over, and not really be punished for it.

I love the cartoon look of the zombies and the protagonist. The level is small just one background for the three zones, but they are all cute looking. I wish there would have been more though. Yes I guess it gives you the same area to learn to set up your plan and defenses, but it also can feel really repetitive as well if you play in one set play through. I recommend playing it in small doses. Playing through 10 or more waves of the same area with the same enemies can just feel like your running in place at times. I think more changes in scenery and even more zombie types would have helped a lot with this. Maybe the next installment will give us more of this. Don't take that the wrong way though. It is a lot of fun for 3.99, and you get a lot for that price point, but it's still a lot of the same thing over and over.

There is a market out there on XBOX for Achievement hunters. We can't forget those guys. There are thousands of people out there looking for those games under 5 dollars to pad their gamer scores. "Zombies Ruined My Day" fits into that genre. All of the Achievements are either killing a certain amount of enemies with one shot, or beating levels on certain difficulty settings. I think there is 12 Achievements, and they are fairly easy to grab. So for all you Achievement hunters here is another to add to that growing collection of quick complete games to your stats.

So you thinking about grabbing this yet? Have we convinced you how much fun there is to be had? Okay what if we talk weapons? There are eight different types. You have a unlimited ammo Pistol, Uzi, Shotgun, Rocket Launcher, and many more. You can just blast away waves and waves of zombies for hours at less of the price of a value meal at your favorite fast food place. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me. How about you? Letting Zombies Ruin Your Day or leaving that to the Corona Virus News on your TV and Social media?
