Our take on Zombie Playground™
The action takes place in a classroom-building arena, with spaces arranged around school subjects and a courtyard.
What is Zombie Playground™?
Zombie Playground is an action arena game for solo play or online co-op, combining third-person shooting with action RPG mechanics.
Its setting is a classroom building with a courtyard, entrance, and areas for subjects including Biology and Music. Players can choose between two classes: the damage-focused Bully or the more agile Rascal, each with distinct stats and abilities. Both classes can use melee and ranged weapons, with combos and finishers.
The game includes 10 missions, multiple enemy types, and a boss fight against Buckethead, the janitor. The vendor lists 17 weapon choices and more than 200 aesthetic assets. Online co-op networking is described as being in beta testing for up to 4 players, and the vendor notes that accessing this function may sometimes take more than one click.
