The Walking Dead: Road to Survival blasts onto the App Store

It’s time to jump head first into the world of The Walking Dead in a new game that has recently hit the App Store.

The Walking Dead: Road to Survival is a dark and gritty-role playing game that stays close to the roots of the hugely popular TV series. Development was closely overseen by series creator Robert Kirkman, and the game’s original story was authored by series writer Jay Bonansinga.

You’ll definitely be able to shoot your way through zombies in the game.

Described as a “mature, intense, story-driven game” players will be dropped into a world full of the undead Walkers and vicious other survivors:

Gamers play alongside iconic characters such as Rick, Michonne and the Governor as they navigate the challenges of collecting resources, building and fortifying their compounds, searching for and rescuing fellow survivors, all while managing to fend off the onslaught of the undead.
