I remember playing the living ♥♥♥♥ out of the demo on the Wii for this game. It's still as fun as i can remember, definitely would recommend :D
This game is for all those who like Wild Guns (SNES, 1994) or, of course, Cabal (Arcade, 1988), the gallery shooter that spawned its own subgenre, the so called [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Cabal_shooters]Cabal shooters[/url]. Zombie Panic in Wonderland DX is one of these. A Cabal shooter gives you free control over a reticle to shoot the stuff on screen (just like a lightgun shooter when played with a controller or a mouse). However, the twist is that you do not play from a first person perspective: there is also an avatar to control and to protect from enemy fire. This is followed by another twist: in Cabal you cannot control your reticle and your character at the same time. Pressing and holding the fire button changes the mode: firing gives you free reticle control, but releasing it allows you to move your character on the x-axis. This results into a surprisingly fun and intense gameplay, while at the same time it resembles the 80's action film heroes that are just standing there when spraying bullets all over the place. Unlike Cabal, the dafault controls of Zombie Panic in Wonderland allow you to shoot and move your character at the same time, making the game way too easy. Thankfully, there's a control option called "Simplified" that gives you the limitations of Cabal (as described above) which automatically increases the difficulty and, at least I think so, the fun of the game, too. There're no online leaderboards, so you don't have to worry about a disadvantage against someone else. When Zombie Panic in Wonderland was first released in 2010 for Nintendo's Wii, it was a big success in Japan, ranking first on the list of WiiWare sales. Indeed, everything in the game oozes Japanese charme, span from the simple arcade-style gameplay and the professional anime surface up to the weird approach to Western fairy tales. Which other country could evolve such a view on Western fairy tales? Well, the game was actually developed in Spain by a small indie studio called Akaoni, which has (had?) the philosophy of creating authentic Japanese-style games. Unfortunately, the company has abandoned the Steam release and left the game behind unfinished. On December 10, 2019 [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1173850/view/1731001878075157847]they announced that a new update is coming[/url] including a new character: Red Riding Hood. It never arrived. It probably got devoured by the big bad pandemic wolf. Although this prevents you from getting a certain achievement (that was already prepared for Red Riding Hood), it should not prevent you from getting and enjoying the game. What's left behind by Akaoni, is already a very polished product. Nonetheless, let's hope that they eventually can free themself and Red Riding Hood out of the Wolf's belly. Or does anyone know a good huntsman? A list of [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/39372135-Lists-of-Niche/list/80535 ]Cabal-like gallery shooters on Steam[/url].

EDIT: An update now that I'm roughly halfway through the game, at least by achievement progress. There is no Steam Cloud, so I had to play through the first world twice, but it's not a big deal. Depending on how good or bad you are with this game (moving and dodging is your friend), you can probably beat the game in an hour or so, and with only 6 achievements (only one of which is secret), it's not too difficult to 100% achievements for this game if you care about that sort of thing. It feels easier to me with the mouse than it was with the other control schemes, though obviously YMMV. Just a VERY quick review to give you an idea of what to expect. I have previously played the game a little bit on the 3DS and tried the game on a friend's Switch, but my total playtime across all three ports is likely just over an hour, so keep that in mind. The game runs perfectly fine on the PC, which should be rather unsurprising considering it has been on the Wii, 3DS, and Switch. Don't expect much in the way of options. In terms of graphics, you get to change resolution, FPS cap, and whether it's in a window or fullscreen, and that's it. It does indeed support 4K and 144 FPS (I imagine higher is possible, but my two monitors cap out at these limits, respectively). You have some other options for sound and music volume, aim sensitivity, and aim type (normal vs simplified). As far as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be a way to change controls, with the "Test Control" option just simply showing you what the controls are and letting you test them in a gallery shooting level of sorts. I'd also like to mention here that I experienced two major bugs so far: the mouse does not work at all in fullscreen mode. It works fine in both windowed and borderless windowed mode though, so probably not a big deal. However, the second issue I noticed is that windowed mode doesn't appear to work on my multimonitor setup but works fine on a single monitor setup. I think the second issue is probably just a temporary error though. Relatively minor issues aside, this game itself is...fine I guess. It's an on-the-rail shooter with a couple of characters. You get to move side to side, but otherwise you'll be just forced to move ahead once you kill enough enemies, which you'll be doing by aiming the mouse. You can switch weapons and have grenades (at least with the first character, haven't tried the others). The game starts out pretty easy, but gets decently difficult quickly, so be prepared. Don't expect anything fancy. The graphics look sharper and runs at higher FPS than any previous version, but I imagine you can obviously see from just screenshots that this isn't going to be a graphically intensive game of any sort. It's also a fairly simple game overall, but probably decent enough for the cheap price. Only other thing I think I'd cover is which version you might want to buy. For reference, the 3DS version is, I think $8 and the Switch version is $8.99 (I may have those switched). That would make those games cheaper than the full price of the PC version, but the launch discount makes it slightly cheaper. Worth noting though that the game is also on iOS, where it costs $5 and also has a lite/demo version that you can try if you want to get a sense of the game (though with touch controls). I'm personally of the opinion that the iOS or 3DS version is probably the best version to get since they're both portable and use control schemes (touch for iOS and stylus for 3DS) that are more than good enough. Graphics may suck for 3DS, but it's not THAT bad, especially for a game like this. I wouldn't get it on the Switch though, as the Switch uses controller only inputs without any motion controls that the Switch CAN support (and what the original game on the Wii had), and controller play (which you can also do on the PC) will make it a lot slower for you to aim at all the enemies. Summary: if you want to get the PC version, it's likely the best looking in terms of graphics. It plays well enough with the mouse, and the few minor bugs are not really a huge deal. The music in the game is actually quite nice for something this cheap, and the game is a good "break" game to play for a bit here and there, as the game does have autosave. For the price it currently is, I'd say it's an ok pickup, so I'd recommend it if you just want something to play inbetween larger games.
Zombie Panic In Wonderland DX is a good Action and a good port of a Wii game, now the story. Wonderland a place of magic and wonder is now facing a big problem, a plague of zombies are ravaging the land killing all that stand in their way. But one boy will have to take up the gun and sword to save everyone. Now the likes, well the art style is really good nice and colorful, with good levels. The music was good and the action was fun as well. The enemies and bosses looked good my fav being the tinman boss, and the game’s humor was nice. Now dislikes, to start the game is a bit short you can beat it in two hours, there is arcade mode and you can play the game with a friend. But really that’s about it. Would have liked maybe three or more bosses to fight. Then we have the story don’t get me wrong the story is nice, but the text moves way too fast to me read sometimes. All so would have liked more guns you can use in the game. With that done, Zombie Panic In Wonderland DX is a good Action and a good port of a Wii game, with art style, cool looking enemies and bosses and fun action. So if you looking for a good zombie and something to play with a friend, this game could be for you. But wait till it’s on sale to buy it.
Si te gustan los juegos arcades clásicos al estilo de Cabal o Blood Bros. este juego te va encantar. El juego corre muy bien y no es muy exigente en requisitos. No tiene muchas mejoras gráficas con respecto a la versión original, pero al menos se lo puede jugar en resoluciones más altas y con el framerate desbloqueado. Además es un juego barato , así que lo recomiendo sin problemas ;)
【ゲーム情報】 本作はある日桃太郎が故郷に帰って来るとそこはゾンビが蔓延る世界に変わっていて、それはかぐわしい香りを放つ小人が関係していることが分かり元凶を突きとめるため、いろいろなおとぎの世界を旅する固定画面型のTPSです。 桃太郎、オズのは魔法使い、不思議の国のアリス、白雪姫の4つのおとぎ話になぞらえたエピソードに分かれていて、各エピソードには3つぐらいにステージがあり、マンガ風の物語進行の後にTPS戦が始まります。 ゲームモードはストーリーとアーケードがあり、ストーリーは桃太郎のみ操作可能で物語に沿ってステージを進める形式で、アーケードはストーリーでクリアしたステージを自由に選択してプレイでき、ストーリークリア後は桃太郎以外にドロシー、アリス、白雪姫でも操作可能となります。また画面分割によるローカル協力プレイにも対応しています。 【良かった点】 ・登場するかわいいキャラクター達とのマンガ風のドタバタ劇が楽しい 桃太郎が旅の途中で出会うドロシー、アリス、白雪姫や各ステージのボスキャラと展開するマンガ風のドタバタ劇が見ていて楽しい。 ・TPSが苦手な人でも固定画面のため操作しやすい TPSが苦手な人でも固定画面で前後の移動が無く左右の移動とジャンプによる回避のみでデフォルトの武器(銃)は弾数無限なので、敵に照準を合わせることに集中しやすい。 ・敵の種類が豊富 おとぎ話毎にその物語にあった敵キャラやゾンビが登場するので見ていて飽きない。ボスキャラはトリッキーな動きでパターンを変えながら攻撃してくるのでパターンを見極めて攻撃をかわしながら戦うのが楽しい。 ・ストーリークリア後にもやり込み要素がある ストーリークリアはアーケードモードで桃太郎以外のキャラも操作可能となるが、アーケードモードでは各キャラの追加コスチュームを獲得することができ、コスチュームを変更してプレイが可能となる。アレ(?)が見えちゃうコスチュームも…w 【残念な点】 ・若干理不尽な攻撃がある 左右に移動しないと見えない位置に敵が出現していることがあり、アイコンで敵がいることは表示されるが敵が攻撃してきている場合、画面に表示されたときには既に手遅れになるケースがある。また突然目の前に敵が出現するケースもあり初見では回避が難しい。 ・敵がゾンビである必要性が薄い ゾンビが大量発生したという内容で物語は進行するが、途中ゾンビ以外の敵もたくさん登場するし、最終的に別にゾンビはいらなかったのではないかという感じになる。 ・プレイできるキャラ毎の特徴の違いがあまり無い アーケードモードでプレイキャラとして桃太郎、ドロシー、アリス、白雪姫が選択できるが、若干のステータスの違いはあるものの使用できる武器は同じであるため、あまり違いが感じられない。 【総評】 元々は2010年にWiiウェアでリリースされたゲームをリメイクしたゲームであるため、ゲームそのものはあまり目新しい感じがする作品ではありませんが、近年あまり固定画面のTPSはあまり見かけない感じがするので一昔前に流行った『ハウス・オブ・ザ・デッド』等を思い出すような感じで、その世代の人には懐かしく、若い世代の人には逆に新鮮に思えるのではないかと思います。(ガンコンはありませんが・・・w) またタイトル画面にはドロシー、アリスともう一人キャラがいるのですが、それが白雪姫ではなくおそらく赤ずきんとなっており、Steamの実績の最後が「Red Hood」となっているが達成方法は「?」で2020年2月20日現在まだ達成率0%となっています。この実績に挑戦してみるのも楽しみの一つではないでしょうか。 【最後に】 このゲームのプレイ動画を公開しておりますので参考にしていただければと思います。 https://youtu.be/k260xITjX9k
10分くらいプレイ。最初から難しい。桃太郎しか使えない。女の子をロック解除するまで使えない。 面白くなってくるまでに時間がかかりそう。細かくレビューするのもめんどくさい。
For $10, there's not a whole lot of content to be had. Plus there are several issues with the sound mixing. Sadly cannot recommend, looked really interesting but was overall disappointing.
I bought it because I remember playing the heck out of the Wii demo of this with my brother. We'd play this co op forever.. so yes I purchased this game. Its, not my go to on video games. So it was actually a bit tricky the first play through. Completed the story, and then beat the story again on arcade mode without actually dying that go! If you're good you can beat the story in about a half hour or so. Not much content, if you complete the arcade mode with a character it seems like you unlock all their outfits like I did with Snow White. Is it worth the ten dollars??? I mean... eh.. probably not. But I wouldn't refund it either. There are a total of [spoiler]4[/spoiler] worlds and a total of [spoiler]12[/spoiler] levels
Edit: Just gonna point this out, the new update might never be coming and that's kinda disappointing. Akaoni Studio might have given up on this port which is sad. But, that doesn't mean I changed opinion on this game, so have fun reading below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I never believed it would happen, hell. I never thought it would happen. But my prayers have been answered. My favorite nostalgic game is now on steam. And oh god, I love it so much. The game is simple: It's a shooting-gallery like game, and all you have to do is shoot the zombies, dodge their attacks, and be sure not to get hugged to death by one. I played this game back when I was younger with my sister when it was on the wii. After hearing about the DX version on the 3DS (Which I sadly missed out because I literally lost that thing), I bought it on the phone instead. It was a purchase of a lifetime. And now I saw it also had a PC port aswell! I instantly bought it, with the soundtrack. The game is such a masterpiece, and not something to be skipped. Please, support these wonderful DEVS by making my childhood complete, and buy this game if you like shooting gallery games, like this one.
