The guide

Overview

Zombie Barrage is a top-down zombie defense game. Hold the barricade against increasingly dangerous waves, defeat mutated bosses, earn coins, and upgrade your weapons and gear between rounds. Aim carefully, manage your ammunition, and protect the barricade as the attacks grow stronger. Play directly in your browser on desktop or mobile.

What it's like to play

Shooting games are about aim and timing, and not much else gets in the way. Targets appear, you point and fire, they disappear or they shoot back. Ammo matters. Position matters. Some games are side-on with waves of enemies, others put the crosshair in the middle of the screen. Either way, a session is a steady escalation until your reflexes run out.

How to play

1Find the fire and aim controls on the start screen; usually the mouse aims and clicks fire on desktop, and tapping the target fires on phones.
2Shoot the nearest or fastest threat first, not the biggest. Big targets usually take several hits anyway.
3Reload or switch weapons during quiet moments rather than in the middle of a wave.
4Keep moving if the game allows it. A stationary player is the easiest target in any shooter.

Why it's worth a go

Zombie Barrage is a sharp, focused test of aim that runs free in the browser with no download or login. Sessions are short and intense. It is a good way to spend ten minutes if you want something that pushes back, and there is nothing to clean up when you are done.

Who it's for

Suits players who enjoy quick aiming and a bit of pressure, typically teens and adults. Fans of arcade shooters and target games will settle in quickly. Not aimed at young children.
