### 4/5 — Orbs

*2026-04-30*

The orbs are just little glowing symbols on the wall. They are around and white. You have to shoot them with a gun that shoots bullets. You cannot shoot them with the taser.

### 5/5 — Oh boy!

*2026-04-03*

It's fun, it's smooth, nice background music, pretty graphics, scary moments, and it is all FREE! I played it multiple times, this one and the second one. And when you finish it the first time you can up the challenge. And when you finish that mode, you can make it even harder. Im so glad i found this.

### 5/5 — Probably my favorite iOS game.

*2026-01-31*

My favorite games are space survival horror. This is the best and only kind on iOS I have come across. My only complaint is minor but there isn’t a jump button and I get stuck and have to restart the mission. Also I explore the maps in full before moving on and I never find these orbs so I will have to replay it on the next difficulty and hope I can figure it out! 10/10

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2025-07-17*

Love the game! Good old classic space zombie game and it feels more like a video game than a game that’s on a iPad or a phone. I feel like playing a game from like Xbox or PlayStation or something like that. I recommend this game. It’s a good game my opinion.

### 5/5 — Best Zombie game on iOS!
