Sliding into port on your mobile devices is Boat Race, developed by Inviqa UK Ltd. This game will let players get a feel for how to row in a competitive college row boat. The game asks players to choose which team they wish to represent in this simulation and the rowing begins. Players will use the natural in and out rowing motion with their arms to beat their competitors. It is a very challenging game, sure to wear out the arms of most all who dare to row. Boat Race is free on the Google play store.

The next game to drop its anchor onto your mobile device is Boat Rush by Fabfunapps. This game is about controlling several boats across your screen, all the while, avoiding swimmers and other boats. The gameplay is very simple as players will stop the boats that are on the screen and speed them up with the touch of a finger. The game graphics are great for the price of free and the sound is not too bad. Boat Rush is a great way to waste away a lazy day. It is very addictive. Boat Rush is available on the Google play store.

Groaning its way onto this top boat racing games list is Speed Boat: Zombies. Like most of you, I was sold as soon as I saw the word Zombie. So what better way to mix up the water with some blood than to kill a herd of undead all from the relative safety of your speed boat? Players will use a virtual joystick to move the camera around. The cool thing about Speed Boat: Zombies is that the Zombies don’t even have to be in the water, as your boat can go across land to plow into one these walking piles of dead flesh. Players will also be able to man the mounted guns on the ship and blast those Zombies back into their watery graves.

Rounding out our list is Life Boat, developed by Smonte Ltd. In Life Boat, players have only one objective and that is to save as many lives as they can from a burning ship. Players will take their boat, rescue stranded passengers and drop them off safely at the dock. Players will then head back out and fill their boat up again. The gameplay is simple to pick up and most can play the game without any problems. Life Boat is free on the Google play store.

Now, what are you waiting for? Why are you still here? The tide is high and you should be heading over to the Google play store, now.

Zombieville USA is simple; you choose a character, each of which has strengths and weaknesses, and you side scroll through towns, bashing zombies with melee attacks or utilizing guns to mow them down. The more zombies you kill, the more money you get. You can also loot homes for ammo and to hide from the onslaught.

Some levels you might luck out and find a vehicle has spawned. It’s neat when this happens; you can tap it to jump right in and it will not only take you directly to the end of the level, but kill tons of zombies along the way.

In between levels, you can buy weapons or health, often a tough choice when you don’t have much cash on you. As you get through later levels, a lot of the weapons become obsolete. Getting into level 40+, you might as well forget everything else and stick with just the rocket launcher and laser gun, which really takes a lot of the fun away. It would be much better if the other weapons could be upgraded to be strong enough to take on the stronger and more numerous zombies (and boy, is there a ton in later levels). It makes it feel like the other options are just moot at that point and it becomes less fun.

As far as it goes, it doesn’t seem like there is an endgame, though it’s possible it doesn’t go past 99 levels, which will still keep you busy for a very long time. It’s truly a game of survival; you will keep going and going against wave after wave until your finger can’t tap anymore. Despite it’s very hard AI later in the game, it is still an enjoyable mobile game you’ll find yourself going back to, from time to time.

Details are vague right now, but the developers have provided us this list of things to expect in Pro Zombie Soccer:

• One of the most surreal and funny stories to ever grace a videogame.
• Lots of different zombies for your zombie killing pleasure, all of them with different hit points.
• A powerful blockbuster-type soundtrack and sound design.
• And of course: a nice combo system; different levels; Zombie Odyssey Mode for the hardcore gamers; character skill upgrading system.
