Grave Mania: Pandemic Pandemonium

Very fun & addictive game that offers great casual play with a challenge. The first Grave Mania seems a bit more difficult, but that's a good thing.

A time management game with a twist! You are in charge of burying and re burying Zombies. Art style is pretty cool. The music is VERY loud. Gameplay is fairly bog standard management stuff with some twists thrown in. A bit too pricey for what it is, but would be enjoyable for people who really liked this style of game. https://youtu.be/iM7Mh-I7EJ4

Definitely not an improvement on the first one. For the second game in the series, the developers decided to make a supposedly casual game MUCH more difficult and annoying. Some of the major changes I noticed... Zombies revive themselves all at once and continue stumbling around unless you hit them repeatedly. In the first game, some zombies were more difficult than others. The easier zombies would stop after one hit. Not in this game. They are all the same except for the mummy who you have to hit 5 times to get him to stop. When you try to put the zombies back at their stations, they don't often listen to where you want them to go. The other issue is that all zombies can and do revive each other. In the first game, it was only certain zombies that revived other zombies. In this one, they all revive each other so one revival quickly turns into 5. It's a pretty lazy way to make the game more difficult. It becomes nothing more than a click fest to knock zombies out so you can finish the level. Even when you do knock them out, they revive again less than 15 seconds later. The other major change/issue is that zombie star levels don't increase regardless of how much attention you give t…

So much clunkier than the first one, hurts my hands a lot more as well. They seriously downgraded the art, which was really cute and well done in the first one. But, worst of all, it keeps crashing and I lost progress. Definitely avoid.

I think I prefer the first Grave Mania game, but this one has some improvements, most notably, getting the Zombie Butlers is a lot less annoying. At the same time, the art for the stations, Bonnie, the Zombies, etc being smaller makes clicking on them harder to some degree and it happened more than once that I move a zombie to another station only for the game to not move them to said station. The timer for a lot of the levels just felt too low, but I can understand that that's because they want players to use the refrigeration station and make getting the perfect score more challenging to get. I'm not sure how I feel about the coffins not being upgrade-able or the changes made to the way combos work in the game. Overall, I would still recommend the game as I did have fun with it. It's sad there isn't a Grave Mania 3, especially since the story ends on a cliff hanger.

fun game totally lost track of time just got completely sucked in
