Yes, last year's surprise smash hit novel, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, is getting the video game adaptation treatment. Prolific App developer Freeverse, creators of Top Gun, Flick Bowling, and like, a thousand other games, is turning the mash-up book into an iPhone title. The game, which will be a 2.5D action title featuring 19th century aristocrats and ... zombies, is due out in the next few weeks. (We're assuming Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters won't be far behind.)
Few details about the game have been revealed, but fighting hordes of zombies with makeshift weapons will almost certainly be part of the equation. As will courtship. And manners.

Why? They make for a good game mechanic: large numbers of stupid, weak, and inevitable enemies. Instead of each encounter being a great threat, the player is worn down over time. For further reading, see Left 4 Dead 2, Resident Evil 4, or Plants vs. Zombies.

It's just over done. Every week it's a new zombie game and it's getting boring.
