There is plenty of ways to try and handle the different levels and that keeps me wondering how I could have done better. Probably the best part is the developers are always trying to improve the experience and they listen intently to the suggestions of the community. This a must try game for anyone who likes tower defense or zombie themed games! ### 2/5 — had hig hopes but....nope *2019-04-28, version 1.55.02* Very disappointed. I like the premise of the game a lot, so had high hopes for it but my hopes were dashed soon after I started playing. The idea of a zombie-infected school is neat and I like the clever riffs on towers but there's not much more good that I can say. When I saw how much in-game currency you're given to start, it seemed like there'd be no trouble buying enough towers to do the job but not so. The first tower is pretty inexpensive but the rest cost a lot more and every new tower you buy costs more than the last!? Seriously?! If you made enough money by beating a level, the high prices wouldn't be so bad, but you don't. The timing of the tombstones appearing and when you can get money by tapping them is off so you wind up focusing too much on tapping tombstones and not enough on the other gameplay. Tower placement is only ok--there are lots of spots to use but each tower uses multiple squares and having the tower go to where you are trying to put it isn't as good as it sould be. At least you can move towers, which is a nice touch. Also, I can never zoom in as much as I'd like and those stupid zombie students are pretty tiny. Gameplay is clearly skewed to force you to watch ads to make enough money to buy enough towers to progress and I won't play a game like that. If I liked the game enough, I'd pay the small charge to get rid of ads but then how would you make enough to buy enough towers? With some improvements, this could be a really fun game but, as it is, it's something I won't play and has already been deleted. ### 5/5 — Level 10 is stuck!! Please fix it! *2019-02-13, version 1.50.13* I was about to beat level 10, but the game crashed at wave 20! Do something about it! Please! **Developer response:** Hello, were you in Campaign or Survival mode? Thanks. ### 1/5 — Beyond disappointing. *2018-11-22, version 1.50.11* I downloaded the game after seeing a very intriguing ad from another game. It said that it was free, so I decided to try it. I had very high hopes, as I love both zombie and tower defense games. What I got was an awkward, cheap mess of wonky camera controls, unclear directives and levels, and the inability to perform certain actions consistently. The delay after the appearance of tombstones is extremely disorienting, and the first level has a spawn point hidden from clear view. The potential of this game is immense, but the execution is absolutely terrible. The advertisements ended up very misleading, as the game appears polished and functional, but is very poorly made in actual gameplay. The camera movements feel bogged down and random when I swipe at all, I cannot move towers without messing up my angle that I work for a few minutes just to figure out how to move, and the fact that most actions, like upgrading towers, are unavailable for the tutorial kept me away from the later sections. I couldn’t stand to even finish the first level. **Developer response:** Hi Nick100909, Thanks for taking time to do a review. I will start at the beginning and hopefully be able to respond to all your comments. We take all reviews seriously and want to make sure we are always improving. Regarding your opening statement, "I downloaded the game after seeing a very intriguing ad from another game." We would be curious to find out where this was? As we do not advertise our game in other games. We use only one platform to advertise the game in iOS. We know our competitors advertise in other games, as they have very large budgets to do that. This is the first time we've had anyone mention any of the issues you are having on your phone with regard to the camera controls. We have over 115k downloads between the two major platforms. Do you think it is too responsive or not responsive enough? We know that a lot of tower defense games have static camera controls and we were wanting to do something very different to enhance the experience and add flexibility. But it seems it is not for everyone. Maybe we will put an option to lock the controls for panning and zooming. Regarding the comment, Unclear directives and levels? Which mode was this in? Regarding this statement, "The delay after the appearance of tombstones is extremely disorienting" They pop up for a couple of seconds then disappear. Do you think there is too much stimuli (extreme)? Upgrades: We do show how upgrades are implemented in the tutorial, but not the complete upgrade path. The upgrade path is like other games. You complete a level and the next level upgrade is available. We went with the typical implementation…to reward a user based off of experience. When you click the tower the first time the first upgrade is available, which is greyed out when used, this indicates that you must be using the upgrade level earned thus far. That is shown in the tutorial, but I understand that perhaps we should show the complete upgrade level path in the tutorial for some users. We find that approximately 99% of users never review the tutorial, and we do not want to force them to do so. I think maybe you are suggesting like a tower information screen, which we do plan on making one outside of the tutorial. Most users jump in and start figuring it out as they go and do not want to spend time reviewing all this. We know there are some users that want as much detail as possible to explain everything, but we had to weigh the decision of which to release first as we are an indie shop (3 total people) and limited budget. We appreciate your review. You have the depth of knowledge of someone who might work in the mobile game industry. ### 5/5 — The Ads are soo Cool! *2018-10-12, version 1.5* Hello. I just wanted to say I downloaded this game because of how good the ads were! This game looks very fun and I wanna try it out! ### 5/5 — Too Cool! *2018-09-07, version 1.44.50* I love the school theme! ### 5/5 — Stellar. *2018-09-07, version 1.44.50* Absolutely great tower defense game. Brings a lot of new elements to the table that we haven’t seen before. Amazing graphics, and a good solid level system. You can tell this took some time. Absolute superb quality. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2018-08-18, version 1.44.48* Can’t even start the game without the screen going completely black **Developer response:** Hey. Sorry you are experiencing some issues. Can you give us some more detail? Was it when you were clicking into the level? Did you have Internet connection? Thanks! ## Frequently asked questions about ZombiED ### What is ZombiED? ZombiED is a 3D tower defense game where players defend a school from a zombie outbreak.
