New badass weapons are needed to battle against even badder ass enemies in ‘The Last Stand’

‘The Last Stand’ Key Features:

• Menacing Monstrosities – Gamers will be tested to their limits with two dangerous enemies.  Spore Pods fly slowly but in large numbers, diving with explosive suicide destruction.  The agile Spore Keeper is the perfect killing machine, firing homing projectiles when jumping and delivering a stunning shockwave attack upon landing.

• The Power of Towers – Take advantage of the two coolest tower defense machines in The Last Stand.  The Anti-Air Tower launches powerful long range homing rockets and the Orbital Strike Relay calls forth a tremendously powerful laser beam from the skies to strike down upon enemies.
• Perk It Up – Customize each guardian with eight rad new perks.

Spray N’ Pray – Increases spread damage and range by 40%
Biological Warfare – Killing enemies with a weakspot hit leaves a damaging poison cloud

Steady Aim – Standing still increases damage by 5% per second for a maximum boost of 50%
Upper Class – The higher players are above the enemy increases weapon damage by 50%

Defeat Horrifying Creatures with Powerful Magic in Zero Zen’s “Conjurer: Awoken”

SEATTLE – Dec. 11, 2013 – Launching today on Android and iOS, Zero Zen’s Conjurer: Awoken adds a distinct Lovecraftian flavor to tower defense games. Based on an original concept, Conjurer tells the story of a wizard who, drunk with power, dissolves the thin veil separating the living and the dead. Tasked with correcting his mistake, the wizard must use magic crystals and powerful spells in order to survive his own creations.

With an emphasis on spells, fixed defense structures (crystals) and fast-paced action, Conjurer has players face wave after wave of increasingly powerful enemies, requiring quick reflexes and tactical might to beat each of its 10 unique campaign levels. The game’s intricate story is told through the wizard’s own words: a whirlwind of madness, curiosity, and the overbearing guilt of unleashing Evil unto his world.

Eventually, the creatures combine to form a great and horrendous “Tentor”-a building-sized beast that quickly becomes the wizard’s greatest adversary…

“A single creature inspired the world of Conjurer. I then wondered where it came from – and who was responsible,” said David Perez, founder and CEO, Zero Zen Games. “Playing as the flawed wizard who breaks the rules and allows monstrous beasts to enter his world is much more engaging than being the good guy. With Conjurer, I wanted to create an atmosphere of impending doom, of grave mistakes that if left unattended would lead to a sudden, horrific end.”

Key Features

• Detailed 3D Graphics: Take down hordes of monsters in beautiful high-res graphics
• Full Single-Player campaign: Play 10 increasingly challenging levels
• Level Up: Improve Fire, Ice, Mana, and Evocate stats with Experience Points
• Powerful Magic: Upgrade your crystals and subjugate your enemies with massive fireballs
• Disturbing Monsters: Expect nightmares after experiencing the game’s horrific universe
• Beyond the Campaign: Participate in a number of Endless gameplay modes
• Supports Game Center & Google Achievements: Compete against your peers with live leaderboards for both iOS and Android

Conjurer: Awoken is free to download and play. Players can unlock the full game after level 4 for only $1.99.
