Farming + Zombies = Zombie Farm!

Playforge’s popular iOS game, Zombie Farm has been updated today with a host of new features. The big news here is the addition of GameCenter support and achievements! As you know, most games now include achievements as an added challenge for the player. These also serve as bragging rights as some achievements are quite difficult to obtain.

The new Zombie Farm update also includes various UI enhancements, new combat abilities for zombies, new daily offers, and quests just to name a few.

“We’ve taken great care to make Zombie Farm a compelling offline, single-player game, while adding tons of fun social elements for our fans to enjoy,” says Vince McDonnell, creator of Zombie Farm. “When you link the game up with Facebook, you’ll notice that some of your zombies are named after your friends, and there’s also a Zombie Camera that allows you to take photos of your farm and share them with friends online.”

Also as part of this update, Playforge has also launched a new social site for Zombie Farm. The new website serves as a fantastic hub for the community, with links to FAQ’s, social networks and forums. It also offers playful comics, videos, cool screenshots and even generates different 3D zombies with every visit!

Zombie Farm is free to play and download. Look for the Zombie Farm update now as it was just updated in the App Store today.
