Sometimes I like to just have brainless fun. I know I'm supposed to be featuring some innovative game with an art style that gives you a contact buzz just looking at it, but occasionally I just enjoy a simple game that's fun to play. Right now it's the addictive, top-down shooter Knight Of The Living Dead.

Did I say shooter? It's actually a melee-only combat game where you fight back wave after wave of the undead. You have to outmaneuver the little flesh-eaters without succumbing to their ravenous teeth, and all without the benefit of ranged weapons. It's a pure hack-and-slash situation.

You play as Sir Galahad, whose job it is to hold back the approaching zombie waves. There's not much else to it. You are given special holy powers in the form of cards, which randomly regenerate in the corner. You also level up, giving yourself points in damage, card strength, card regeneration rate and, finally, movement speed. You click with the left mouse button to attack, the right mouse button to use your special a card and WASD to move about the level. It's simple, addictive fun.

There's also a leaderboard where you compete for the quickest time finishing all the waves, and an ultra-hard mode with harder zombies.

Why You Should Check This Out: Knight of the Living Dead is a top-down shooter without any shooting, a melee zombie-kill-fest. You whack back wave after wave of the undead with Sir Galahad's trusty sword and occasionally receive a little help from special holy powers. It's mindless, bloody fun.
