Trenches delivers hours upon hours of pitched battle and mayhem filled fun. The ever-deepening Campaign sports three levels of difficulty. Add to that, Skirmish mode where you can create custom battles and even random ones for endless replayability. Then a dash of global multiplayer and you’re going to be late for class/work/anniversary/surgery/etc.

SECRET UNLOCKABLE MODE REVEALED! Finish the Campaign and unlock Zombie Horde in Skirmish! The hordes of the undead have risen and it is up to you to try to defeat them. How long can you last?

√ Over 20 achievements through OpenFeint and nearly 30 GameCenter achievements √ Bluetooth, Local WiFi and GameCenter global multiplayer with VoiceChat √ Zombie Horde ... who doesn't love Zombies? √ Original Voice Talent √ Original Musical Scores √ Adaptive Difficulty √ World Class Art √ Captivating Gameplay √ Mini-game as good as some stand-alone games √ Tons and Tons of Cowbell √ Listen to your own music

by flier10 · March 2, 2020

I used to play to this game all the time in high school. I kinda forgot about it but then couldn’t find it for the longest time. Finally found the game tonight and was so disappointed when I seen I couldn’t okay because it wasn’t updated to fit my new device. Please update so I relive the fun I had once.

Need to release an update to make it work with OS 11

So called Bluetooth?
     
by Devastatebaker · November 3, 2015

I'll give this app 5 stars when the multiplayer gets fixed. Trying to play via Bluetooth with a buddy but it won't connect at all. Very disappointed. Fix this and you'll get an awesome review!!
