About Containment The Zombie Puzzler

A Unique puzzle game with excellent 3D graphics.

The 2012 PAX10 Selection now available for Android!!

---------------------------------------------------------------

NOT YOUR TYPICAL ZOMBIE PUZZLE GAME
Because there are no zombie puzzle games. But even if there were, Containment: The Zombie Puzzler would be the best one. You don't match 3 of anything. There are no abstract objects that you have to put together. You surround zombies with 4 of the same unit, and destroy them. The zombies, not the units.

DIFFERENT UNITS KILL ZOMBIES IN DIFFERENT WAYS
Actually, most of the time the zombies end up just getting shot. But they get shot in brutal ways by shotguns, M-16s, and handguns, depending on what type of unit you surround them with. If they still don't learn their lesson (and let's be honest, zombies usually don't learn lessons) a nice bonesaw might do the trick.

NO, SERIOUSLY, IN REALLY DIFFERENT WAYS
Surrounding zombies with cops gets you a sniper shot item. You can use this item to instantly take out a zombie. Prefer something less surgical? Then surround those undead jerks with soldiers, and you'll get a grenade. Want something MORE surgical? Then surround the shambling horde with doctors and you'll get a suit that resists infection.

THAT'S RIGHT, WE SAID INFECTION
But whatever you do to stop the zombie outbreak, you'd better do it fast. Every time you make a move, the zombies get closer to infecting nearby units. How can you even the odds? By using those items we mentioned a few sentences ago. You'll also drop giant objects from the sky, electrocute zombies with a lightning rod, and much, much more.

OH, AND DON'T FORGET THE BOSS BATTLES
The zombies don't play fair. By themselves, the regular zombies are bad enough. But over the course of Containment: The Zombie Puzzler, you'll encounter a whole mess of different enemy types, including some killer boss fights. Only by using every trick in the book (along with new tricks that you'll discover in each stage) will you survive the zombie apocalypse.

BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE
Like an epic campaign mode with branching paths and over a hundred stages. Like a Survival Mode with that will challenge you to last through intense zombie fights.

DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
All of this made GameCritics.com call our game “a brilliant new puzzler”. Gosh, that’s nice of them. They said we had “really gone above and beyond”. We certainly tried, and we think you’ll agree. But then they also said that “truly unique puzzle games are few and far between, but Containment: The Zombie Puzzler caught [their] attention from the first time [they] laid eyes on it.” Okay, now we’re blushing.

This is a great variation on grid puzzling. I'm blown away that it's not more popular... 10+ downloads? Four reviews? This definitely deserves a lot more love than that. The theme is great, the story is neat, the mechanics perfect, the power-ups unique and fun. There's nothing not to love.

Developers are awesome, they are VERY fast to respond and actually take feedback, ask for feedback and fix things. <3 Booysnake. Game is awesome. Game really is awesome, but it won't work on my phone. HTC One. It crashes when it comes off the loading screen. Fix that and it's a 5star game!

I have this game on PC and liked it, so it was a no brainer for 0.99cents to have a mobile version. If you like matching puzzle games, this zombie spin gives the genre a new life. Good job devs.

Love the game, own it on Steam... Was excited to get it on Android, but when the game loads it crashes my Huawei U8680 (T-Mobile MyTouch). Have to remove battery and restart. Ugh!

I love this game! I just wish the campaign mode was a bit longer! Excellent game! :)

D70%
by D####:

Interesting concept, plays great, I feel I have to rush through each level, not sure if that's just me or the way the game throws each mission at you. Great puzzler with zombies, I love the way they incorporate it through the city. Worth every cent.

Y70%
by Y####:

I am an addict to this game. As the title says I play this game several times everyday. Best bathroom game ever or even putting in time game.This game should be used for old people to help keep their minds active. Highly recommend it is just fun.

The controls aren't as precise as I would like. It's the most difficult thing in this game.

Didn't even get to play the game, couldn't install due to "insufficient storage". I have more than enough storage than is required for the game. Spent ages removing some of the larger apps on my phone - still won't install no matter how much space I free up. Waste of money.

Ridiculously gorgeous game. It's insulting to simply call it a zombie puzzle game. There's comedy, cinematography, gore, excellent art and animations, and the game concept mirrors that of the Japanese hoard game Go. Full disclosure I am married to one of the bootsnake boys, but my words stand true. This game is awesome. I am proud of my man. Ps, I have a galaxy s4 and have no problems playing it on my phone.

Campaign mode is short, too short that my wife beat it in an hour. Or was it on purpose so that now she gave back my tablet so I can play again?? Needless to say, my wife picked it up pretty quick and kept her interest. Very much zombie meets bejeweled, but with a little more to it. The game keeps you interested until your brain is numb for the taking lol. Well worth the price for no annoying ads and no IAPs that bug you for powerups and stuff.

by U####:

Controls could be a bit better, but otherwise I love this game...

J70%
by J####:

I really like the concept. It just needs some tuning. The touch controls seem off, this is magnified by your finger getting in the way. You almost have to hope your move goes where is it supposed to. I have a Galaxy Note 2, so it's not like I have a small screen. An s-pen option would rock (hint hint). This becomes extremely frustrating later on when the zombies attack quickly, and you lose from poor design, not strategy. Also the game will murder your battery life.

U70%
by U####:

Nice twist on the bejeweled genre, good writing, funny, good graphics, good game design, but very hard to put things where you intend to, even on a tablet. Leads to much more restarting of level than should be needed. No other apps on my Nexus 7 have this much trouble figuring out where I tap.

U70%
by U####:

Nice to see a new twist on the match type puzzle game. Only had for an hour but loving it already. Good work.

E70%
by E####:

I really like this game because I like the match games and the zombie element makes it even super awesome great use of a dollar !

A70%
by A####:

Entertaining and easy to pick up and play. Challenging game play after several Acts makes this a lot of fun.

U70%
by U####:

Yeah this game is addictive and I bought it on Steam but for 99cents it's worth it...

L70%
by L####:

I think it would be easier to see on a tablet but I still enjoyed playing it on my Samsung Galaxy. Only thing I would suggest is MORE LEVELS! Love the graphics by the way.

K70%
by K####:

Port of an iPad/PC game so it has some usability issues on phones with the characters being a tad small, even on a large screen phone. High score tables, a visible score, and improvements to overall visibility would really go a long way. Campaign needs a real story, it's essentially, "we thought it was safe, but we were wrong" over and over again which feels tedious. Also the sound control doesn't work for me. I have it at 0% but it still has sounds. Campaign too easy at first. Fun once you get hang of it.

There is a bug where the crated weapons refuse to from time to time.

Difficult to move pieces when time really becomes a factor.

Concept really cool though

Heard about this on Gamers with Jobs and wanted to support dev. Great game play and easy to learn.

D70%
by D####:

I enjoy the game. It is quite fun. I have one request of the Dev, tho. Please allow separation of music and sound effects under the volume settings, or allow the master volume to control all the sounds. Can't listen to an audio book with explosions and clicks over it.

C70%
by C####:

Best zombie puzzle in market!!! Worth every penny. With sense of humor and with excellent (and unique) gameplay. Unique enemies also. The only drawback is that it has too few levels... and mini bosses!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GIVE US MORE LEVELS and I will give 5 stars!!!

N70%
by N####:

This is an insane puzzler, well thought out and great fun to play. Only snag I can find is that among the crowd it can some times be tricky to spot the zombies. Great game though.

Dru, heard you on Gamers with Jobs and had to come grab this game. Really enjoying it. I am VERY excited about your next game, that one sounds amazing!

N70%
by N####:

Freezes up when I get to the first level. But they are quick to reply to reviews. So if they could make it more phone compatible, it would be a good app.

M70%
by M####:

Fun puzzle game with zombies and a sense of humor. From the great indy devs at Bootsnake. Includes a story mode as you progress to escape the city & a mode to test your skills.

I70%
by I####:

A fun spin on matching color games. Instead of making a row of the same color you surround zombies with the same color people, which then execute the group. My favorite level so far is the park :)

N70%
by N####:

Very cool puzzle style game. Great graphics and sound.

Hey I tried this game on my HTC 4G but whenever I went to campaign and then to the first level my phone would restart and I couldn't do anything about it but it works fine on my Nook so if you could fix that problem I would rate higher

A70%
by A####:

Game is very short and very easy. I would rate it higher if it had depth or replay value.
