Halloween has come and gone, but Zombies are here to stay… until Cowboy Jed came to town that is. Cowboy Jed is a new Android game from Ximad, and it’s a game with a wild pretty premise as you play a Cowboy out to stop the undead.
Jed is a simple Cowboy who enjoys a nice quite life. Well, he did before the aliens came to our planet and turned everyone in his town into zombies. They also blew up his ranch which I’m sure didn’t help. You step into the role of Jed the Jetpack wearing Cowboy and your job is to simple destroy each and every zombie you see. The zombies come straight at you down three lines, and there’s a brain at the end of each line with a health gauge. You basically move your floating hero up and down while shooting at the zombies, it’s not groundbreaking by any means, but its fun and simple to play. By the numbers Cowboy Jed offers up 48 levels set across 4 scenarios and 18 different types of weapons.
Cowboy Jed isn’t going to blow you away with its inventive style of play, but it is quite a bit of fun and has an interesting storyline considering it involves Cowboys, Aliens, and Zombies. I believe I saw a Dragon in there as well… just thought I’d throw that out there. If you want to give it a go you can pick up Ximad’s Cowboy Jed for free on Google Play.
