    If you go into Zombie Tycoon 2: Brainhov's Revenge expecting Civ, you'll come away disappointed. But if all you want is a playful strategy game to be played in 30 minute-chunks, it's great.

    This is a really cute tale about the zombie apocalypse brought about by the mad scientist Tycoon and his struggle to wipe out the last humans on earth. It comes as no surprise that he's got competition, his old mentor Brainhov has a zombie army of his own (the blue "ferals) and wrecks your life in the beginning.
    The first few levels get you used to the game and it's RTS stylings, you work with your mobile zombie respawner that's armed with a turret when at rest on triangle, then 2 squads of zombies, and a single monster.

    Now wait, you're asking, where are the zombie hordes?
    They're mapped to the R button, once you start capturing houses, they'll each spawn a wandering zombie, that when you tap R, they'll all perform a dead run on your target, it's pretty impressive with enough zombies.

    The gameplay is fun, I was never bored, the missions are almost too short for me (a casualcore RTSer like myself) but there's plenty of little things you have to do to keep you busy, objectives you have to capture, objects you have to work with certain zombies, houses to capture, or even secret trophies to find scattered around.

    Now, there are a number of little achievements you can get in each level, but, if I'm not mistaken you can't see what they're looking for until after you complete it which means you don't know on your first run what you should do to get trophies (I assume) which is lame.

    Multiplayer, I haven't tried it yet but it looks so much fun.

    I am disappointed at the apparent lack of bot gameplay, I guess they figure that later in the game certain missions will be compelling enough to get your fix on PvE.

    I would love to see this game get attention, I think it's worth it, it's certainly the best handheld RTS I've played.

    Also.
    Boss fights, they're pretty cool and I felt, pretty unique.
    Looking forward to playing more, but I'm so busy with SS, MGS HD, GOW GoS.. oh, sony.    … Expand
