It’s inspiring, as we continue our commitment to constantly innovating with fun, highly functional and sometimes pretty ridiculous content for our players,” says Vince McDonnell, creator of Zombie Farm. “Where else can you harvest a friendly zombie, cultivate quirky vegetable mutations, then square off against pirates, lawyers, and now, even aliens?”
