Infectonator 3: Apocalypse – Strategy Game Review
Infectonator 3: Apocalypse is a Strategy/Action game from Armor Games Studios Inc, first launched in 30th May 2019.
It’s rated 9+ and currently has 1,724+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Infectonator 3: Apocalypse Stand Out
Conquer the world, one bite at a time! Infectonator 3: Apocalypse is a fast-paced simulation-strategy game where your goal is to destroy humanity with your growing army of mutating zombies. Drop your virus into an unsuspecting population and watch the chaos unfold. Upgrade your virus, splice DNA, and unlock dozens of undead creatures with unique powers.
Blending pixel art mayhem and arcade action, Infectonator 3: Apocalypse has you lurching across the world map to wipe out humanity before it wipes out you. By causing the most destruction in each area and reaching target goals, you'll be able to jump from one continent to the next. But beware; not only will humans start deploying powerful zombie countermeasures during levels, but they'll also begin researching a cure. If that happens, it's game over! The good news is that with hordes of zombies, mutated monstrosities, and powerful traps and weapons on your side, you're not giving up this apocalypse without a fight.
The only difference between the mobile version and desktop version is that this one fits in your pocket. Now you can destroy the planet from anywhere in the world, even the bathroom.
Features
Over 35 Zombies to Discover and Craft – Splice DNA to unlock new mutations, from common walking-undead to leaping alien parasites. Build your brain-hungry army and master their abilities to turn humanity into mulch.
A Wonderfully Warped World – Infectonator 3: Apocalypse takes place in the real world… well, sort of! As you destroy the globe, you'll encounter parodies and morbid humor of all sorts, but beware. The humans will not go quietly and have their own defenses.
Classic Pixelart With a Modern Twist – Expressive and cute-yet-creepy 2D humans and monsters roam dynamically lit 3D environments. Sending hordes of undead monsters to devour flesh has never looked so pretty!
Over 200 Unique Interactive Levels – Open or lock doors, blow up walls… use the environment to your advantage and make sure your zombies get to the very last human to earn bonus cash and creatures for your lab.
Built for Challenge and Customisation – Randomized events, mutations, and locations add difficulty to various maps, while optional modifiers can make the game harder… or more casual, if you prefer.
This Strategy game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Cant get any achievements! We know its a six year old game, but any chance of a tiny bit more love for this old war horse of a game here.
Love these games but when is the next one coming.
We love the game and all the new features its amazing remember playing the old ones on the computer but our only problem is that it wont load for us anymore its stuck on Syncing save with cloudI really love the game can you help us fix the issue please.
We love this game it is the best game ever.
We have followed the entire series and have yet to find anything like it. Love it because it keeps us busy for hours. One of the best games we have played.
This game is the best game ever.
Ive played all the games in the series and this one finally caters to.
If its 3D can be better,same view, Make real people's shapes can be better,not animations people.
We gain a special kind of satisfaction using trump as bait at the beginning of a round, waiting til he dies, then releasing the infection.
We liked all the other Infectonators they were vary fun and the third is evan better because there is a cure and it makes it harder.
There's nothing much to say., just keep rolling out the updates. This is a superb game, and we truly hope you continue supporting it. There's real quality in this port, and in our opinion, a perfect game to play on the go.
It is a lot of fun but a bit hard.
Its it has a few visual errors lie Monica sundenly turning weirdly glitchy but otherwise great game.
We have no problems with the game so far but we really enjoy it.
We love this game, It is extremely addictive and we have not run into any crashes or bugs. The only problem we have run into is the News Lady not rendering properly and she her textures are unloading and weird. Weirdly the News Man is is fine.
Now every time we try to play the game, it is stuck on syncing save with cloud. We cant play the game now, and reinstalling does not work. How disappointing.
Great game very addicting. May get repetitive The crash though, we noticed more frequent when we unlock the Mummy.
We like the game and all but the female reporter Monica seems to have her sprites melted can you guys please fix it its like that since you guys released on mobile devices besides that everything great thats all.
Great game, love the Infectonator series. After the first play through youve experienced almost everything the game offers.
Its a great game but finishing the game is not really worth it.
Great game but why in the world is the girls eyes so messed up? Her one eye is like almost completely black then all of a sudden her eyes turn white. The males eyes are not bad at all. They look identical to each other and they dont just turn black or white out of nowhere like the female version.
Its a great game and lots of fun but once youve unlocked most of the stuff like the goals, it gets kinda pointless. There should be more unlockables besides modifiers like a new outfit or customizable outfits like hair or eye color when you hit the million score or something like that to keep the modifiers useful but also keeping you entertained do you play the game.
Its a good game, but sometimes it crashes when loading it up.
The achievements are broken so you cant unlock everything.
Why is it that on the first level theres a cop in the level which make s it impossible to play the game.
We liked the first one better to be honest.
We want to request for a refund after playing this game, The game isnt fun and there isnt enough content to last long for us. There maybe others out there to enjoy these types of games but it isnt our taste.
We found this game because we love the infectonator series and we knew they were coming out with a third one at some point. Low and behold, here it is! We began playing it last night and got pretty far, playing more today- only to find that the game froze out of nowhere and tried restarting the app. It wouldnt even let us out of the game, so we thought it had something to do with our IPad. We did a hard reset on our iPad and tried getting back into the game, but it was stuck on the title and would not move. We restarted the app several times and it did the same thing. We delete the app, and it started to work again only to have all of our data erased and didnt save our previous file (like it does with the rest of the games). So now, we have to restart the game from the beginning and lost all our work we did before.
No like, its stuck at syncing screen and it doesnt work.
We wish we could get a refund for our 5 bucks spent on this game. It crashes so much and stays frozen on the Home Screen.
We dont know why but it really bothers us.
Game is brutally hard, hard to get money and upgrading zombie a pain. All ur zombie basically die in 2 hit after 5 missions are so.
This game is basically plague inc and its overpriced. We wish we didnt pay for this one since the first one was far better than this. This has cool mechanics but they make it real gimmicky with the reward system being all randomized. The News Lady hasnt even been fixed. The eye looks ungodly… Honestly, just play the first one.
Paid for the game, it is by far the worst game we have ever paid for. Was a fan of the first one…. Sad.
We just want to say that we are a major fan of these games so when we saw the 3rd one we got it immediately. We love this game and it is everything we love about the first two but it also keeps it refreshing. The only complaint we have is that this game crashes often, if we get to anything more than 30 people the game will crash almost instantly, the only way we can prevent this is by turning off the blood and music, which takes some enjoyment out of the game. Even when we do that the game will crash once we complete a level that has a certain amount as previously stated, it crashes when we move on to another level and complete it. We love this game and this series so we hope this gets fixed soon, thanks to anyone who may take the time to read this.
We are on a iPhone 6 Plus game crashes every time on a map when it ends and when we try to play a map. We cant contact support because our email will be flagged as spam.
We LOVE this game. But whenever we use a rocket or something, The game crashes.Plz fix this. Thanks.
Ive been playing every game in this series and we got excited seeing the third game in an app, what really disappoints us is the constant crash issue we get when the timer counts down on the 1 after completing a level. Because of this the game is basically unplayable and is keeping us from giving a 5 star Edit:So we use an iPhone 6+ and usually most apps run just fine, after the recent update the game still crashes after the countdown and its really upsetting us. We know the developers are trying their best and im staying to support throughout all our 10+ years of playing armor games.
Ive always loved the series. The second game we played so much and non stop. This version plays too much like PLAGUE INC. Which we like and dont like at the same time. This time around the game is a lot harder and gets very frustrating. The timer, money issue, having to create zombies, bosses are ridiculous. We wish this played more like the second game.
The game logs out of its self to much. Ive had the game for 15 minutes and its logged out of its self at least 6 times, thats to many times for a great game that Ive been waiting for, for about 3 years. The game is AMAZING but its to glitchy. PLEASE FIX THIS we LOVE THIS GAME TO MUCH TO LEAVE IT ALREADY.
We were able to solve the problems described in our earlier review so we are removing it.
We love the game but every time we get so close to beating a boss it all ways crashes. We hope you developers hear about this any way we love it.
We picked this game up on a whim, and we cant seem to put it down. We love the quick bursts of gameplay that we can sneak in, though we always end up playing longer than we should… Addictive gameplay, excellent art, and superb design. Definitely check this one out.
Loved playing this on our laptop and love it even more on our phone. Thanks for bringing it over guys.
The game pretty good but it crashes a lot which is ruining the fun of the game please fix this beautiful game.
We have enjoyed this game so far and have very few complaints.
We really like this game but, it crashes if their is even a fraction too much going on. We turned off blood, lowered graphics, andTurned sound off etc. It stopped crashing but, wish we didnt have to do all that tho.
Ive always enjoyed the original game so Im glad to see the sequel coming to the iPhone. We know what Im going to be doing for the next month or two. Infect in 3…2…1.
We played this on Steam and loved it. Looks like the entire game is now on iOS. We think we actually like the touch interface better for this kind of game. <3.
This game certainly may have a big price tag and pixel graphics, but its worth your money. If you have any spare money that you want to get off your back, buy this game! If you enjoy it and play a lot, then it will take a good 2 weeks before you finish the game. Although, this game would be a lot better if there were not just regular then legendary zombies. This game would also attract more people if there were bosses and more places to conquer. We mean whats the problem with zombies in space? This game is great and you would enjoy it but it doesnt quite yet deserve a 5-star.
