Attention: the bullets aren't infinite, so you have to make every single one count.

There's no running, no reloading, and no backup coming. In World War Zombie, it's just you, a loaded gun with a fixed number of bullets, and a screen full of zombies who are already in place - and not planning to move. You don't chase them. You don't get swarmed. Instead, you sit still and aim carefully. Every level hands you a different setup: a bunch of undead standing around, usually spaced in frustrating ways, and you've got to figure out how to take them all out with limited shots. You aim with the mouse, click to fire, and that's it. The bullets aren't infinite, so you have to make every single one count. It's less like an action shooter, and more like a shooting puzzle game disguised as a zombie apocalypse. What makes the gameplay interesting is how it turns something simple - zombies just standing there - into a challenge that takes trial and error to master. You realize early on that you're not playing for speed or reflexes. This is all about angles and planning. The bullets can pierce through multiple enemies if they're lined up just right, and that becomes the entire game: finding that exact position where one shot can hit two, three, even four zombies in one clean path. Sometimes you get a grenade instead of a bullet, and then it's about bouncing explosions off walls or using splash damage strategically. You'll mess it up a lot - fire too early, waste a bullet on a single enemy, or totally misjudge how far a shot will travel. But that's part of the fun. Each restart is quick, and with each failure, you see the solution just a bit more clearly. World War Zombie works because it doesn't overcomplicate. There's no dramatic story or constant unlock pressure - just bite-sized levels where the fun is in solving the layout. You're not fighting zombies in the usual frantic way. You're solving them. Quietly. Efficiently. It's the kind of game where you can spend five minutes figuring out one perfect shot just because you know there's a better way than using all six bullets. And when you finally do it - clear a full screen of zombies with just four rounds - it feels oddly satisfying. Like you outsmarted something. Like you found the cleanest way through a messy situation. For a game that's all about dead things standing still, World War Zombie feels pretty alive.
