About Zombie Ricochet: 2D Physics Puzzle Shooter
Zombie Ricochet is a 2D physics puzzle shooter built around the idea that a single well-placed bullet can do the work of many. The survivor carries a shotgun, and the challenge in each arena is figuring out how to route that ammunition through the environment rather than firing in a straight line. Walls, metal beams, crates, explosives, moving platforms, pipes, and portals all play a role in getting bullets to zombies that are tucked out of direct sight. One scene shows horizontal platforms marked with black and yellow caution-style diagonal stripes supporting character figures.
The game spans 48 handcrafted levels divided across four themed areas: City, Jungle, Lab, and Desert. Each level awards up to three stars, giving score-minded players a reason to revisit earlier stages and find cleaner solutions as new combinations of hazards and interactive objects appear in later puzzles.
How to Play Zombie Ricochet: Eliminate Every Zombie
The goal in every level is to eliminate all zombies before the ammunition runs out. The aiming line shows the current direction as you hold and drag, letting you plan the path of each shot before committing. Solid surfaces ricochet bullets into hidden targets, and triggering explosives at the right moment can clear clusters of enemies. Completing a level unlocks the next challenge, and the puzzles grow more complex as new hazard combinations are introduced across the four areas.
