Burn Zombie Burn!

Kavcom and doublesix games launch the zombie-destroying global hit on the Apple Mac App Store with extensive control options and in-game player guide

Thursday 2nd June 2011: Digital publisher Kavcom has announced that doublesix games' action-packed undead-shooter Burn Zombie Burn! is out now on the Apple Mac App Store. Burn Zombie Burn! for Apple Mac features extensive control options to play the game in addition to mouse and keyboard, including PlayStation 3 DualShock wireless controller, Xbox 360 wired controller, iShock gamepad and BZB Gamepad - an iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad free-to-download gamepad app.

Burn Zombie Burn! is an action-packed arcade shooter where you take on the role of Bruce, a character who has to fight off a never-ending horde of undead attackers with increasingly bizarre weaponry including chainsaws, baseball bats and mega machine guns. To score high, you will have to set fire to as many zombies as possible – the more zombies on fire, the bigger your multiplier – but be careful, burning zombies are faster and much more dangerous.

"Apple Mac gamers will be able to experience the full, manic zombie-killing mayhem with an unprecedented choice of controllers," said Managing Director of Kavcom, Tony Kavanagh. "The integration of the free BZB GamepadiPhone and iPod Touch app has worked especially well on Apple Mac, and you'll also be able to play effortlessly using a range of existing popular console gamepads."

"Burn Zombie Burn! for Apple Mac has every drop of the fantastic addictive gameplay that has established our undead blaster as a worldwide smash," added doublesix games Studio Head, James Brooksby.

Burn Zombie Burn! was awarded 88% by GameZone who said: "what a zombie-killer game should be...offering all the creativity, hilarity, and destruction any gamer could ask for and then some!" and was also branded "great" by IGN and given a stellar 83% score.
