### 4/5 — Best in the series

*2026-04-21, version 1.5.41*

I grew up playing these in the web browser and this is by far the best one. There are a lot more things to do and the changing challenges keeps it interesting

### 3/5 — Games alright but what is up with the reporter??

*2026-02-12, version 1.5.41*

So I bought the game a while ago and when I played it the reporter lady on the news looks all distorted, like her flesh is melting or something. I looked it up and it doesn't seem like this was intentional. And after checking again today this visual bug is still there.

### 4/5 — Stuck on “syncing save with cloud”

*2025-04-11, version 1.5.41*

Now every time I try to play the game, it is stuck on “syncing save with cloud”. I can’t play the game now, and reinstalling does not work. How disappointing.

### 3/5 — Fun, but crashes

*2024-06-07, version 1.5.41*

It’s a good game, but sometimes it crashes when loading it up.

### 3/5 — I love the infectionator games but

*2024-02-08, version 1.5.41*

The achievements are broken so you can’t unlock everything

### 4/5 — Great Game but the crashes…

*2023-09-18, version 1.5.41*

Great game very addicting. May get repetitive… The crash though, I noticed more frequent when I unlock the Mummy.

### 3/5 — Annoying

*2022-12-25, version 1.5.41*

Why is it that on the first level there’s a cop in the level which make s it impossible to play the game

### 4/5 — Great game, nothing to gain after first play through

*2022-06-04, version 1.5.41*

Great game, love the Infectonator series. After the first play through you’ve experienced almost everything the game offers.

### 4/5 — Review

*2022-05-29, version 1.5.41*

It’s a great game but finishing the game is not really worth it

### 3/5 — Idioma muda do nada

*2022-03-23*

Eu coloquei português e ficou em espanhol. >:(

### 4/5 — Kinda hard

*2021-12-16, version 1.5.41*

It’s kinda hard but I could probably complete it

### 4/5 — FIX THE FEMALE NEWSREPORTERS EYES

*2021-10-09, version 1.5.41*

Great game but why in the world is the girls eyes so messed up? Her one eye is like almost completely black then all of a sudden her eyes turn white. The males eyes are not bad at all. They look identical to each other and they don’t just turn black or white out of nowhere like the female version.

### 3/5 — Didn't wanna purchase this

*2021-09-04*

Please refund

### 4/5 — Very addictive game but achievements are broken

*2021-06-05, version 1.5.41*

Would be a five star if I could unlock all achievements. Current version seems to have bugs on iOS 14.6. Please fix!

### 4/5 — Super great, bad graphic scaling on ipad.

*2021-05-30, version 1.5.41*

I love this game! It’s incredible, and addicting (in a good way). My only complaint is that the upscale of the reporters makes them look like garbage on ipads.

If I had to guess, the resolution of their sprites needs to be upped to better support on ipads, so that they don’t get stretched.

Interestingly, the reporters are the only thing int he game that have this problem.

### 4/5 — Inhalt

*2021-05-15*

Ich bin ein großer Fan von Infectonator. Ein tolles Spiel mit Strategie und Fortschritt. Man hat wirklich das Gefühl, dass man mit jedem Run etwas neues gemacht hat und neue Inhalte freigeschaltet hat. 
In diesem Teil jedoch muss ich feststellen, dass es nicht so ist. Ich habe das Spiel innerhalb von 5 Stunden durchgespielt. Es gibt natürlich noch einige Erfolge, die sich nicht in einer Runde machen lassen, aber das Hauptspiel ist durch. Ich habe gehofft, mit noch mehr Zombiearten belohnt zu werden oder neuer DNA oder irgendetwas, damit es sich lohnt eine neue Runde zu starten. 
Aber nein. 
Das Spielprinzip ist meiner Meinung nach schlechter geworden. Sie haben sich gedacht, dass Plaque Inc. eine coole Spielmechanik hat und wollten sie einbinden. Das hat auch einigermaßen geklappt, aber die Wurzeln des Spiel treten meiner Meinung nach in den Hintergrund. Ich habe mir von diesem Teil erhofft, dass er wie der erste ist, nur mit mehr Features und besserer Grafik. Das ist auch passiert, aber dass man nichts Neues freischaltet nach einer Runde, wodurch letztendlich die Lust geweckt wird nochmal die Welt zu übernehmen, wird hier leider weggelassen. 
Auch ein Kritikpunkt ist, dass man sich seine Zombies craften muss. Man kann abgesehen von den einzigartigen Zombies, immer 3 von jeder Sorte mitnehmen, wobei nur 4 Zombieslots zur Verfügung stehen. Man muss häufig auf einzigartige Zombies zurückgreifen, weil man kein Craftmaterial hat. Jene sind zwar für jede Runde nutzbar, allerdings nur einmal. Wer den ersten Teil kennt, wird hier also auch enttäuscht.
Dennoch eine Empfehlung, wenn man dieses Crossover zu Plaque Inc. interessant findet und noch nie zuvor Infectonator gespielt hat. Ich denke, Infectonator Fans wie ich sollten lieber die Finger davon lassen und das ursprüngliche Spiel so im Kopf behalten wie es damals die Kindheit geprägt hat.

LG

### 1/5 — Great game but loading makes it LITERALLY unplayable

*2023-03-23, version 1.5.41*

No like, it’s stuck at “syncing” screen and it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Crashes to much

*2022-11-20, version 1.5.41*

I wish I could get a refund for my 5 bucks spent on this game. It crashes so much and stays frozen on the Home Screen

### 1/5 — Wonky left eye on the female reporter

*2022-02-11, version 1.5.41*

I don’t know why but it really bothers me

### 1/5 — Crushing

*2022-02-02, version 1.5.41*

Game is brutally hard, hard to get money and upgrading zombie a pain. All ur zombie basically die in 2 hit after 5 missions are so

### 1/5 — 환불부탁드립니다

*2021-12-22*

환불해주세요

### 1/5 — Broken Achivement

*2021-10-25, version 1.5.41*

Tried to unlock all the reporters - doesn't work; you cannot unlock the one that requires you to watch the news 500 times! It was tedious all get out but I managed to get the stat counter for the news to 500 but the reporter remained locked. Thought, okay maybe I need to start a new game to get it to unlock - nope, didn't work. Wasted hours trying to unlock this reporter. Not happy. Don't bother.

Mother issue - a lot of descriptions are cut off leaving you wondering what the heck they say. Other descriptions, such as for unique zombies, don't tell you anything about their special abilities - useless.

Ps. Whoever thought 500 news watches was good benchmark to unlock anything in this game is a moron. It should be 200 max because in an average game you'll watch the news 100-150 times so going to 200 isn't much of chore, but 500 is real pain that drags the game out necessarily long.

### 1/5 — Can’t download

*2021-05-19, version 1.5.41*

Can’t download for some reason. Shame cause I was pretty excited. Would appreciate a discount

### 1/5 — Loot boxes and Plague inc.

*2020-08-16, version 1.5.41*

This game is basically plague inc and its overpriced. I wish I didn’t pay for this one since the first one was far better than this. This has cool mechanics but they make it real gimmicky with the reward system being all randomized. The News Lady hasn’t even been fixed. The eye looks ungodly... Honestly, just play the first one.

### 1/5 — Can no longer create games

*2020-05-22, version 1.5.41*

I bought this because I loved the first Infectonator. 

Playing through this was a joy and finding all the new types of zombies is great.

I have now managed to infect every country and destroy them. Had the end video play. Now when I go to create a new game in another slot nothing happens. I have tried many times but nothing happens. I basically stuck at the main screen an no way to start a new game.

Please fix this issue as I now have paid for a game that is no longer working.

### 1/5 — They keep erasing my review because they don’t like it.

*2020-02-07, version 1.5.41*

Paid for the game, it is by far the worst game I have ever paid for. Was a fan of the first one.... sad.
