Top 10 Free Zune Games

1. Zune Hero

Zune Hero is a cool, and one of the best free Zune games. If you’re familiar with Guitar Hero, this is basically the same game for the Zune player. Using the Zune pad you play a virtual guitar, and what is really cool is that you can even play guitar on any song that you’ve on

your Zune, interesting!

Note that to exit the game you need to press the Up button, and there is no other way of quitting the game. Another point to note is that this game only works with songs that don’t have DRM enabled. Trying to pick a song that has DRM enabled would probably crash the player.

You will really enjoy this game. If you want to try it, download it from: https://www.zuneboards.com/forums/restricted-games-applications/39171-zunehero-revamped-xna-gs-3-0-final.html.

2. Alien Game

It is a space alien shooter game. You drive a tank, shooting alien invaders and UFO’s along the way. As the time goes on, the difficulty

level increases, as more UFO’s and aliens’ ships appear. So you have to move and fire at an increased speed space, killing everyone, until you run out of lives. You can choose a song to play during the game. The game can play your library alphabetically or at random, after first song.

Who doesn’t like checkers? It’s a popular fun and one of the most interesting free zune games available. Players can play against a

robot or their friends who also have this game on their Zune players, and if the wireless connection is active.

Just upgrade to the new Zune firmware (v 3.1 or later), if yours is old, and the game is there folks. The new firmware is available to download from Zune’s website: https://social.zune.net/search.aspx?keyword=firmware%25203%252e1

4. Bombastic!

This is one of the professional quality games for Zune. Hats off to the person who has developed this game. Have you played the

Martian from Bugs Bunny? The game settings and the game character looks like that it came straight from that show. In this game, your job is to place bombs and blow up everything around you, and make sure to run away before the bomb blows up. You will have to be far away from the planted bombs, otherwise you will die too.

5. zBreak

If you’ve ever played Breakout and want a similar game on your Zune player, then check out zBreak. If you’re not familiar with zBreak, the

idea is to break the bricks at the top of the screen with the help of a bouncing ball. As the bouncing ball comes back down, you need to bounce it back up again, and if you miss the ball, you lose a life.

You have an option of playing a different song if you do not like the one that is already set. You can download the game from this website: https://www.mediafire.com/?1btl2y1mazb
