Rise of Chinese zombies

2 In 2014, Tomato Animation released the full version of Chinese Zombie War. The company has sold 200,000 copies on Google’s Play Store.

THERE are plenty of potential in Asian mythology that could be converted into interesting content for the animation and gaming world, said Tomato Animation Sdn Bhd director Chan Kam Wai.

The 31-year-old, who co-founded his animation and game developer company in 2010, said the team had no idea what to use for their stories when they first started. But what was certain was that there was already a lot of western-style zombie content in the smartphone game market.
