Zombie Derby II splatters its way to the Play Store

There can’t be many better ways to unwind after a long work week than this. Zombie Derby II is an action-packed offering from Herocraft  that puts you behind the wheel of a Mad-Max inspired death machine to cruise through the post-apocalyptic wasteland mowing down hordes of the undead.

This 3D side-scrolling shoot-em-up takes its cues from a number of different genres. Stylistically, it feels something like Trials, with the game handling all the steering along the winding track, leaving your hands free to blast away. It’s also an upgrader, meaning you’ll gradually unlock more powerful vehicles and weapons to turn zombies into mince meat.

You must navigate deadly terrain and face a gamut of grisly ghouls of varying types. You can unlock 8 different cars including a giant Zombie Combine Harvester. There are multiple modes of play including an endless survival mode and a competitive mode that pits you against friends all over the world. There’s plenty of destructible environmental elements as well that are guaranteed to help you let off steam after a long day. No strategy or advanced gameplay here: just raw, bloody fun.

Zombie Derby II’s predecessor racked up more than 8 million downloads, so this developer clearly has their chops. Zombie Derby II is free to play but contains in-app purchases. Click the button below to get to hacking through the hordes.
