Zombie Hunter

I didn't pick the URL doubleplusundead for nothin'.  And for shame, I've only bothered to put up a single post highlighting a zombie game.  Of course, I have sent Ace a couple that he has linked in the past, but I'll make my own list anyway, and not care if there are repeats from Ace's.  Some of these are really good and fun, some are OK, some are not great but they are timekillers. And they're in no particular order either.

I saw Sobek at Innocent Bystanders linked a Zombie game, Zombie Horde 3, which isn't bad, its kind top down 3rd person GTA(Grand Theft Auto, for anyone that doesn't know) type thing, sorta like the first two GTA's with less driving, if GTA were a zombie game.

 Its a decent game, but its too ambitious for a flash game, I saw someone make that comment at the game site, I agree and thought the same when I played it.

So I'm gonna start compiling a list of Zombie games, here we go!

1.)  Zombie Grinder is the game in the first link in this post, on rare occasion the Zombies won't appear for you, try refreshing, and if that fails, google 'Zombie Grinder' and there will be several sites that have the game.  You can read my full review of the game at that link, it is a very fun fast paced game, and unless you find the screaming grindcore music too much, you'll probably enjoy it too.  The game speeds up and slows down with the music, which adds a very unique gameplay element.  Blowing away a zombie with a shotgun in slow motion, with big chunks of zombie spraying outward is very satisfying.

2.) Endless Zombie Rampage.  This game is a decent one, though it can be a bit slow in the early stages, and becomes too easy once you figure out how to earn money and upgrade your gear fast.  At some point you'll be just be shredding things with the biggest gatling with near infinite health.  It does have a saving feature if you want to save your progress, God knows what kind of spyware you're putting on your computer, but its an interesting feature.  Eh, maybe its not spyware, who knows? 

3.) The Last Stand.  This is probably my favorite, and Zombie Grinder making the close second.  This is a very fun game, its a bit on the easy side, but it is such a blast, with cool weapons and good gameplay.  Last Stand should be on everyone's favorite zombie game list. 

4.) Boxhead Series.  The Boxhead games are fun, if a little cutesy, in a LEGOman sort of way, though they spray blood all over. The games are as follows, The Rooms, More Rooms, 2Play Rooms, and the original Boxhead.


5.) Zombie Survival series.  I'm not a huge fan of either of these games, but hey, if you're bored, its a game.  Its a 2-d game, zombies come from either side of the screen or up from below, you shoot them.  Here's the First, and the sequel, where the main character looks like a cheap HUNK ripoff with mantits.

6.) Zombie Horde II.  I haven't sat down to play this one thoroughly yet, but it looks like it is a more simple concept than Horde III, so it might be better.  Certainly better than Horde I, which was utter crap.

7.) De-Animator is a pretty good game too, so give this one a try, inspired by a short story.

Alright, well there is a decent starter list.  I may expand on this, so be sure to drop by.  Happy hunting, and remember, Aim for the Head!
