Wouldn’t it be cool if zombies were to munch on pizzas instead? But then again, there wouldn’t be anything appealing to them, accept for the tomato paste that looks like blood.

But what if the toppings consisted of brains, eyes, guts…you know, stuff that zombies like? It sounds gross doesn’t it, but Zombie Pizza for the iPhone/iPod touch lets you serves up these gross morsels to your zombie clientele.

The game has a simple backstory, involving you, the player, training to take over the reins of the Zombie Pizza parlour. In order to satiate the hordes of undead pounding on your door, you have to dish out pizzas as fast as you can, following a set of recipes.

The recipes involve dragging certain body parts (like the ones mentioned in the 2nd paragraph) from the conveyor belt on to the pizza, before flicking the pizza towards the door. For example, the Roadkill pizza requires one each of any kind of topping, while the Gut Buster requires four toppings of the same kind.

As the levels progress, you’ll find taboo toppings on the conveyor belt, basically stuff that you SHOULDN’T add to the pizza. An example of this would be broccoli, and feeding zombies with this type of topping will just make them mad. Making them wait for their pizza makes them mad too, and if they are mad enough, they’ll storm the parlour and eat you and it’s game over.

You get saved by the bell whenever it hits daybreak and its onto the next level. Perform well enough to earn the prerequisite cash and you’ll be awarded with medals at the end of every level,  or even that rare promotion!

I’m currently having a blast with the Story Mode, and would be trying the Survival Mode next. The game CAN be scary to some since you get to see some ugly mugs staring at you from the door window. The ingredients can be  gross as well, but at least these are the cartoon renditions.

Online leaderboards are provided by OpenFeint, which is pretty common nowadays on iPhone games and it serves its purpose for bragging rights among your OpenFeint friends.
