I hadn’t played this since getting my new iPhone because I’d lost my save file and didn’t feel like restarting.

On Saturday morning, though, the game updated to version 1.1, which adds some excellent new stuff.

First off there’s a survival mode, where the aim is simply to go as long as possible without dying. You get a special gun if you last ten minutes – I’ve managed about four and a half so far.

Then there’s Horde mode, where you have to survive waves of zombies, with guns being given out for surviving a certain number of waves.

They’re both good additions, making leveling up a lot more interesting than simply going back and playing early levels.


The best new feature, though, is a lot more simple – there’s now an icon next to a level that appears when you’ve completed that level’s bonus challenge. No longer do I have to try and remember which levels I’ve completed fully, hooray!

So I played a lot of this at the weekend. The first seven levels are pretty simple, but there’s a big jump in difficulty at level eight. I managed it after a few tries, but I’m now having quite a lot of trouble on level nine. Great fun, though, and the update has made the game a lot more enjoyable.
