Zombie Hunter is a free 3D zombie shooter from VNGGames Studios, built to run with no internet connection. You hunt the dead through ruined cities, dark alleys and eerie forests. It is from the same makers as Dead Target and Sniper Zombie 3D, and it needs Android 6.0 or later.
First steps after installing the offline shooter
Install it from Google Play, then open the game once while you still have a connection. Version 1.106.0 is the current build.
The store text points to story missions, daily challenges and side quests as the main activities. Early on, the guns are the thing to watch: pistols, shotguns, assault rifles, sniper rifles and heavy machine guns can all be unlocked and upgraded.
Sniper headshots, boss zombies and no-wifi play
The core pitch is offline play. The developer says it was designed for use without internet, which suits flights or commutes. The game is rated Teen on Google Play.
Combat leans on sniper scopes, where headshots earn bonus rewards. Missions also include large boss zombies, and you gather resources, unlock new areas and level up hunter skills.
The studio also made Dead Target, Sniper Zombie 3D, Dead Warfare and Mad Zombies, so the style will feel familiar if you played those.
When Plants vs. Zombies or Dead Target fit better
Zombie Hunter is a shooter, so it will not suit anyone who wants tower defense. Plants vs. Zombies is the closer match for that taste. Zombie Tsunami and Zombie Catchers suit people who prefer lighter, arcade-style zombie games.
If you want a similar shooter from the same studio family, Dead Target is an alternative. Last War: Survival Game and Doomsday are also options for strategy-leaning survival play.
