Asmodee Digital has brought quite a few popular board games to mobile devices, and now the studio has just pushed out yet another high-profile title: Zombicide: Tactics & Shotguns. Based on the board game Zombicide, this new game is available on both iOS and Android. However, unlike many previous Asmodee releases, it's not an exact 1-to-1 port of the board game. Instead, it’s a post-apocalyptic single-player tactical RPG.

If you have played the physical board game, then be warned that the developer has made some changes to this digital version to make it more suitable for the mobile screen. Unlike the original, this will be an entirely single-player mission-based game, with a total of 40 missions for you to play through.
You will also have access to many playable characters, but some will require you to unlock by logging in to your Asmodee account or by in-app purchases.
The game is currently is available on the Play Store at the price of $4.99 (Rs 345), and as mentioned, there are also some in-app purchases included. These cost up to $4.99 (Rs 345) per item and are mainly there to unlock new characters.
Asmodee Digital has had a pretty consistent record when it comes to adapting physical board games to digital platforms, and if you are a fan of the strategic RPG genre, then Zombicide: Tactics & Shotguns promises a decent amount of entertainment, though it does deviate from the original game in certain aspects. Some might find that the levels are too long for a mobile game or are turned away by the IAPs, but if an in-depth strategic RPG on your phone is what you want, then Zombicide: Tactics & Shotguns is a solid option.
