? Product
-
Donut Lab is working on a free-to-play mobile-based multiplayer shooter Kids vs Zombies
-
The developers aim at attracting adults, stating that “this game is for those who want to feel like kids again”
-
The gameplay is based on killing zombies and upgrading your character, buying weapons and equipment with the in-game currency “donut”
-
Gamers can fight each other as well in player-vs-player battles
-
Kids vs Zombies currently supports only 4 players at once, but that number will be increased in future
-
The product is available in early access only on Google Play, but there is no doubt the iOS version will not take long to occur
