Dead Nation
Dead Nation is a top-down shoot 'em up video game for the PlayStation 3, developed by Finnish video game developer Housemarque. It was released on November 30, 2010 in North America and December 1 in Europe. Players earn point multipliers and money when they kill zombies. With the money they can buy and upgrade weapons at checkpoints, and with the multipliers they get better scores. Every time players get hit, they lose multipliers and health.
Story
Dead Nation takes place in a fictional world ravaged by a zombie apocalypse. The player can play as a male or female character and fight against different types of zombies. Players fight their way through ten levels using weapon stores that allow them to upgrade weapons and change armor. During the levels, players can find boxes with ammunition, multipliers, money or armor parts and also loot the trunks of cars to get money. However, if a car is blown up before it has been looted, the loot is lost. Sometimes players are trapped in areas where they have to survive until they reach a certain goal (e.g.: wait for an elevator while fighting zombies or kill all zombies in the area).
