Description: If you are looking for a on-rails arcade experience that blends between classics like Doom, Left 4 dead and House of the Dead then we got you covered! Fast and simple gameplay that will bring you into a creepy world of zombies and demons. Show your skills to the world through our global leaderboard system! Bring a friend in multiplayer Co-Op game and send those zombies flying back to hell! Playing the role of an elite force of high-tech mercenaries you are sent to deal with the demonic incursion spreading across the world. The demonic forces entering the world have taken over the bodies and minds of the population, turning them into mindless slave hordes controlled by powerful demonic entities.

New portals to the demonic world are opening at an alarming rate and it’s up to you to close them by any means necessary and save what’s left of humanity, destroy the rest. The game offers a non-stop carnage experience in full room-scale virtual reality. Every shot you make is entirely up to your own aiming skills. Headshots will take out the zombies stone cold so you better be good at it. Blowing up zombies and demons have never been this much fun. A full set of weapons are available like katana, guns, machineguns and grenades will keep the baddies from wrecking your day!

Review: HordeZ is a fast and very furious monster/zombie survival game that sees you trying to fight off wave after wave of the undead and unnatural using the various weapons at your disposal. From grades to swords, machine guns to pistols, they all kill the monsters in various ways and killing them will rack up your score that you can then show off on the global leaderboard system! If Left 4 Dead and Doom had a baby, this is what it might look like. Graphically wise the monsters certainly look the part as do all the very creepy settings. The corridors are the worst, were all trapped and confined, it is a nightmare come real.

While this game is far from perfect it does deliver on the action side and things can get oddly exciting. While not as good as many other zombie shooters this is still worth a look. But I will suggest you wait for it in a sale as paying full price might leave you feeling a little ripped off.
