‘Redneck Revenge’ – A Zombie Road Trip [Review]
Well if you like fending off Zombies and do not mind a cold beer once in a while, then Redneck Revenge from BulkyPix is right up your alley. You play as Red, a simple redneck hanging out in the bar when all of sudden zombies start coming in. Time to grab your shotgun and start some target practice!
The game comes with 2 modes: Campaign and Survival. The campaign mode comes with 4 missions, which have to played in order.There is over 30 levels within those missions. The survival mode is simply that-survive as long as you can.
There is a nice help area with screenshots to show you have to play. I am still trying to figure out the hand-to-hand combat. As you play you earn money which can be spent in the shop. Also if you check in each day, Grandma will reward you with some cash. You can of course purchase coins with real money if you like.
With the coins you earn, you can purchase new weapons such as shotgun, nail gun, spud gun, beer barrel, flame thrower, M16, exploding chicken and even Uncle Bob. With each weapon there is a small chart to show you its fire rate, cooling, and damage capabilities. In addition to weapons, you can purchase equipment such as hats, torso and leg coverings. All of which improve your armor.
This is a cute game and a lot of fun. To control Red you will use two hands, one to position Red on the left side of the screen and one to fire at the approaching Zombies from the right. The menu system is very simple so it does not take up a lot of screen real estate. After a few minutes I got the hang of the game and was killing the waves of zombies.
As you progress in the game, the zombies get harder and there are a variety of different zombies you will encounter. There is no list of them but trust me some of them are tough!
I found the game very enjoyable and tough enough to keep me wanting to come back and kill some more zombies. I have only tried a few of the weapons but am working on earning enough cash to get Uncle Bob and the exploding chicken to help me. So if you are ready to kill some zombies, belly up to the bar and help old Red out!
