About the game
Game description from the publisher: Once again it's time for the NBC — the National Bowling Competition — held annually in the DMZ (Domain of Many Zombies) to determine which Necromancer is to be crowned this year's 9-Pin Bowling Champion. In Bowling for Zombies!!!, each player takes on the role of a powerful Necromancer in charge of a horde of zombies. Instead of the usual "who kills the most humans" competition, which over the years has become tedious, this year's event concentrates on getting the best bowling scores.
