  10. [R10] Zombie Frontier 3 1/5 · US Time eater without much payout: This is just another one of those games that if you don’t waste real money on their perks it’ll be a long miserable experience that’s not worth the time. If you buy the stuff then it becomes too easy which defeats the purpose. The stats on the weapons are also inaccurate. Who would have thought that a UMP does more damage than an AK? The ads are the worst ever. Afte
