Monday Brainssss Teasers: zOMGies photo

This week's Monday Mind Teasers game is a lot like the last one . . . except with zombies. Okay, so not really. Instead of a sidescroller where you constantly dodge different shaped obstacles, you're challenged to outrun a never ending swarm of zombies. Instead of upgrades and boost features, you've got a whole arsenal of weapons to unlock, and there's still obstacles to dodge and items to collect along the way. Basically a well done 2D L4D knockoff. Barrels go boom, heads explode, etc, etc -- you get the idea.

If anyone has any suggestions for great interactive puzzles or other challenging games, please voice up in the comments. If not, then I plan to go back to the old Monday Mind Teasers setup again for a while.

You can play Jimp and LongAnimal's game zOMGies here. Good luck!

Is it just me or does the game not like to let you move around?

So, not bad. Got 11th daily score on first try. And I mostly blame the death on an unlucky mouse fart that made me lose track of where i was aiming for a second.

Pretty fun, get's repetitive after a while though. Once you've got the laser it just becomes a game of attrition; I made all three High Score lists through sheer perseverance, finally let myself die because my hand was cramping up.

@Sensei Weasel: I'd argue that ALL zombie games are repetitive :) Grats to you and DeusPayne for kicking ass!
