The Boxhead series has pretty much been the same the whole way through. Kill zombies. Only a few things has changed since the beginning. The introduction of a health bar instead of a 'one hit and you're dead' system and the introduction of new enemies such as the demon. Boxhead: The Zombie Wars follows in the same way. New features, better graphics and more weapons. Let's begin.

Boxhead: The Zombie Wars is the fifth game in the flash series. You still have your favourite weapons from the previous games and the addition of a few more. They are a mounted turret that you put down and they shoot the enemies for you. A barricade that just protects you. An interesting feature of this is the fact it has its own health bar. So does the turrets. A minigun that fires bullets extremely fast. Grenades that you throw at the zombies and kill them and airstrikes, well I actually haven't ever gotten this far but the description says it devestates masses of zombies in a single blow. Wow! For those who haven't played any of the other Boxhead games, here are the descriptions for the rest of the weapons. The pistol is a basic weapon with unlimited ammo. The shotgun is stronger but has limited ammo. The barrels explode when shot at. The rocket launcher fires rockets (My personal favourite!). Unfortunately the Uzi isn't present in this game but it is replaced by the minigun which is about a hundred times better!

There are multiple types of zombies. Normal zombies which are weak and have no special abilities. They just walk towards you. The mummies that appear out of the ground. The runners which run after you. The demons that shot massive fireballs at you. Please avoid him! The vampires that can teleport around the course and hit you anywhere.

The graphics have had a HUGE revamp from the previous games. Before they were just bright and blocks and now its actually outside with trees and rocks and grass!

There are 4 difficulty levels from beginner to nightmare. The difficulty levels just start you off at a higher level and a higher score multiplier. When you kill an enemy the multiplier goes up one and it slowly goes down. It goes down faster the more of the multiplier you have.

There are really any flaws. I really only noticed a funny bit with the character. His head slightly tilts to the left and it makes him look funny! :)

To sum it up, Boxhead: The Zombie Wars is a great game to play if you have the chance. It is at the Official Boxhead website so go check it out and look at the other Boxhead games! I'll give it a 9.5/10!

See you later!
