Zombie Searches for Wife in $4 Game
If you are looking to experience something different, be sure to check out Cry of the Infected, a unique twist on zombie games where gamers can feel what it might be like to be a raging zombie. The game’s premise has a whole city being affected by a zombie virus, with the player taking on the role of Robert, a zombie trying to find his missing wife. Enemies include soldiers who shoot anything that moves out of their own fear and loss of control; some zombies also attack their own kind in fits of agony.
“The story is really told through two perspectives,” said Luke Porter, creator of Cry of the Infected. “You experience this gruesome environment as a zombie, but you also find pieces of a letter from one of the soldiers assigned to contain the zombie outbreak.”
The game is only $4, offering 13 levels of action that contains 1-2 hours of gameplay; it can be replayed for an alternate ending and an unlockable secret weapon. If you’re feeling cheap, there’s also a free playable demo available.
