Zombie games

Few enemies turn up in games as reliably as the zombie, and this tag brings together 61 games built around the undead. Most of them, 42, are in our Horror category, but zombies wander well beyond it: 9 of these games are in Shooter, 4 in Action, 3 in Strategy, 2 in Arcade and 1 in Racing.

The names near the top of the shelf set the mood. Brutal Zombies hides nothing about its subject, Zombie Hunter Survival puts survival right in its name, and Zombie Defence Team suggests holding the line together. The Day of Zombies and Maze of Infection set the scene for an outbreak.

Some titles take the undead to unexpected places, and Wild West Zombie Clash brings them all the way to the Wild West. Biozombie of Evil rounds out the list. The horror titles lean on fear, the shooters on aim and the strategy games on planning, so whichever kind of fight you want, there is a zombie game on this shelf for it, ready to start in your browser.
