Majesco To Give 3DS Owners Their Own Zombies

So having a zombie pet isn’t exactly a ‘new’ idea. There have been web, facebook, and PC ones in the past. This however is going to be the first ‘3D’ zombie pet that you can have! (Sadly I’m pretty sure it won’t look like poor Ed pictures above.) Well 3D if you buy a Nintendo 3DS and the ‘game’ that is. Personally I’ve been out of hand held consoles for awhile now *hides his first gen Nintendo DS* and really don’t have plans to pick this one up. Still though there is clearly enough zombie lovers out there to guarantee this one will sell, let’s just hope it’s good for those that by it!

Developed by 1st Playable Productions, Pet Zombies in 3D lets players raise their very own decaying human pets by managing their special dietary preferences (brains and the like), bodily maintenance (or lack thereof) and morbid activities needed to keep them happily undead. Players can choose to play with, care for, or even mischievously torment their zombies in creepy locations like cemeteries, evacuated malls or rundown military bases. Each 3D environment is customizable with mix-and-match objects, themed backdrops and even music to best fit each pet zombie’s personality and tastes. Throughout the game, players can discover new zombies to add to their horde and customize them with facial bone deformations, variable decay, clothing and unlockable items. Players will also use the Nintendo 3DS accelerometer controls in various activities, including rolling zombie heads through mazes, and can earn trophies and in-game currency to spend in the Zombie Pet Shop.
