Yahoo Launches Zombie Game Just in Time for Halloween
Wanna learn something and play a fun game full of zombies? Yahoo has just the thing for you and the timing couldn’t be better with Halloween just around the corner. It only takes roughly 15 minutes to play and is very strategy oriented so RPG lovers may enjoy this one in addition to the legion of zombie addicts out there.
Yahoos latest endeavor is as seasonally appropriate as it is educational. The tech company has just rolled out a cool zombie-themed game that teaches the principles of economics. Called Shambling Hordes, this social game was developed by Yahoo Labs (specifically, David Reiley, John Morgan and the research engineering team at Yahoo). The game was developed because, as Yahoos researchers noted, Zombies are awesome, but its also supposed to help players master the principles of game theory, advanced mathematics, classical economics and budget allocation.
