Our take on Zombo Buster Advance
Rather than placing defenses on a fixed lane network, the game makes elevators and other building routes part of the tactical problem. Squad deployment, unit swapping, and movement-changing structures replace the more static layout common to tower-defense formats.
What is Zombo Buster Advance?
Zombo Buster Advance is a tower-defense game set inside buildings connected by interchangeable elevators.
Players deploy and reposition a team of more than 12 anti-zombie shooters, equip units with crafted power-up badges, and use gadgets such as dynamites and snap-kill gauntlets. Battles include over 30 zombie types, boss encounters, and movement-changing routes including escalators, travelators, and passages. The campaign contains 50 stages, with missions that provide rewards and upgrades. An in-game journal records information about units, enemies, gadgets, and other elements. The structure centers on adapting defensive tactics to changing building layouts and battlefield movement.
