Ice Station Z reanimates on the 3DS

More On: Ice Station Z

Just when you think the 3DS is dead and buried, it rises from its grave. Indie developer Wobbly Tooth Games is adding a late-life zombie survival game to the handheld's roster with Ice Station Z. You play as a stranded arctic researcher who discovers zombies trapped in the ice. The game looks more like a survival sim in the tradition of Day Z instead of the usual action-focused fare, with an emphasis on exploration, use of vehicles, and judicious use of firearms. I'm digging the art style as it appears simple and Gouraud shaded, much like the early Lucasarts games or the very first Alone in the Dark.

3DS owners hungry for some survival horror won't have to wait long; Ice Station Z shambles onto the eShop on November 3rd.
