iPhone owners who have tried out Doom or other zombie-killing games are sure to love this new one. It’s called Dead Panic for the iPhoneor iPod Touch where the goal is to kill zombies to save citizens in specified places like New York or New Jersey.

But it is not the type of game where you are playing from a first person’s point of view. Rather, you make use of soldiers and place them in the right places to annihilate the incoming zombies. Similar to WarCraft and StarCraft, the number of soldiers you can use varies on the mission you are doing.

All you have to do is make sure your soldiers survive and kill as many zombies as required per mission.

The game strategy is okay but don’t expect too much from the graphics display. The characters in use are quite small so you may need a magnifying glass to really enjoy it.

The app can be downloaded at the Apple App Store for $1.99.
