List of free zombie games - last update: 11/20/05

This thread will contain a list of free zombie games of various types. If someone posts a new one at the end of the thread, I'll edit the first post to include it in the list.

List last updated: 11/20/05. New entries denoted with ***

Flash/Java games
'Dawn of the Dead' (remake) games - Two good games here- a shooter (Blackout), and a number guessing game (Barricade). Amazing graphics and sound that will make you fill your pants.
De-Animator - Creepy shooter based on H.P. Lovecraft's Herbert West: Re-Animator. Also, here's an alternate link.
All Hallows Eve - Base defense shooter, shoot the zombie hoardes as they attack your house, then build barricades and buy bigger guns for the next round. Relentless and atmospheric.
Divine Intervention - It's Judgement Day, the dead have risen, and this priest kicks *** for the Lord!
Zombie Patrol - Simple, but fun zombie shooter.
Grave 2 - a zombie target-shooting game.
Crunch Time - deal with zombies at the office in this 3rd-person action game. Features some... unconventional weapons.
Zombie Terror - side-scroller puzzle/action game with a very Indiana Jones feel to it.
Loot 'n Shoot - an EXCELLENT first-person shooter game based on George A. Romero's 'Land of the Dead'
Zombie Horde - A bit like All Hallows eve, but top-down.
Zombie Hunter - a top-down action game where you must defend yourself from an endless horde of the undead. Gets VERY hard VERY fast.
Zombie Hunter II - a top-down action game. Kinda bland, but bonus points to the creator for using the coolest music from the 'Resident Evil' movie (namely, the music at the very end when the camera pulls back to show the city in shambles, just before the credits roll).
Whack the Dead - presented by Xombie, a great zombie Flash cartoon. Pretty simplistic gameplay, but fun nonetheless.
Zombie 4 - Classy little browser game made with Processing, and has you trying to save as many civillians from the constantly-spreading zombie hordes, using a multitude of weapons
Zombie Survival - basic 2D shooter which uses very cool sprite animations from the Metal Slug game series
Generic Zombie Shoota - a very tongue-in-cheek zombie shooter. It's even got its own cartoon briefing
Zombie Killer 2071 - not the most graphically pleasing shooter, but still pretty fun
Zombie Killer 2072 - sequel to Zombie Killer 2072. Not much better, but still amusing
Zombie Squirrel Attack - just like what it sounds like
Zombie Swarm - defend yourself from the seige of the undead
Land of the Dead - unrelated to the Romero movie of the same name
Zombie Erik - another zombie shooter. Interesting graphics
House of 1000 Corpses - unrelated to the Rob Zombie movie of the same name. Somewhat of a self-proclaimed House of the Dead clone
Y My 6th Movie - no, I don't understand the title either
Zombie Escape - use your jetpack to avoid the zombies!
Resident Evil: Apocalypse - a tie-in to the movie of the same name. See how long you can survive against infinite zombies!
Stickman Sam 2 - for a very simplistic stick-person shooter game, it's actually really addictive
Zombie Worms - just like what it sounds like
Resident Devil - a very clever rail shooter with stylized graphics, and the ability to blow zombies' limbs off. Gets very hectic very fast.
Monster Mash - a VERY fast-paced shooter where you must defend yourself against waves of zombies, skeletons, and bats.
Fright Club - go nuts against endless zombies using nothing but a sword. Gets a little repetetive after a while.
Graveyard of Drunken Souls - essentially the same exact thing as Fright Club, made by the same creator.
Springfield Zombies - based on the Simpsons, it's a bit of a zombie shooting gallery. The audio is kinda crappy, and it gets a little repetetive, but watch your ammo; you only get a certain number of shots.
***Zombie Romp - a little pit repetetive, and a bit on the easy side, but ragdoll physics is good stuff.
***Zombie Gringer 60000 - great stylized action and animation, but ignore the suggestion to turn up your speakers; the music is loud and mostly annoying.

Mods for existing games
Zombie Panic - a multiplayer modification for the original Half-Life. One person starts as a zombie while the rest are human; if you're killed by a zombie, you become one of them. This continues until there are no humans left.
They Hunger - an excellent single-player modification for Half-Life. Fight your way through an expansive single-player storyline through hordes of zombies. A must-play if you have Half-Life.
BrainBread - an excellent co-op multiplayer mod for Half-Life. Features loads of real-world guns, lots of maps, and you can even blow off parts of the zombies. Lots of fun!
Infiltration - Unreal Tournament (the original) mod, which revamps the game to make it more realistic. Along with it is a mutator that dumps a large number of zombies onto the map. It isn't half bad if you can manage to play it online, as sort of a survival-a-thon (see who is the last to still be alive and such), but is otherwise kind of bland.
The Awakening - a co-op multiplayer mod for Unreal Tournament 2004, currently in the beta stages of development. Includes objective-based gameplay, a variety of weapons, and the ability to play as a zombie.
Grand Theft Auto: Long Night - a mod for GTA: Vice City which simulates a massive zombie outbreak.
No More Room in Hell - forthcoming Half Life 2 mod, currently in production
Quarantine - another Half Life 2 mod that's currently under development.
Killing Floor - an UT2K4 mod that just got fully released. Screenshots look great!
Zombies of Nightmare - another UT2K4 modification, full details of the mod listed in the link
Out of Hell - a total conversion for UT2K3 and UT2K4. It's a single-player mod that centers around a town falling prey to a zombie outbreak
Aftermath - a Half-Life 2 mod currently in development
DotD Mod - another Half-Life 2 mod in development
Over-Run - yet another Half-Life 2 mod currently in development. Promises to have multiple game types and multiple teams fighting against the zombies, as well as against eachother
Resident Evil Twilight - a Resident Evil themed mod for Half-Life 2, currently not anywhere near completion
Infection - a single-player mod for UT2003, boasts top-notch voice acting and great graphics

Downloadable games
Zombie Plague - a downloadable zombie board game
Survival Crisis Z - great 3D zombie survival action game. Chock-full of stuff to do and quests to go on.
Zombie Smashers X - surprisingly addictive side-scroller action game where you beat down zombies in hand-to-hand combat.
Zombie Smashers X 2 - arcadey side-scroller action game, complete with missions to undertake and upgrades to buy.
Zombie Nightmare - a turn-based strategy game. Read the manual before playing!

Abandonware games
The House of the Dead - classic lightgun arcade game, ported to the PC. No lightgun required.
The House of the Dead 2 - sequel to House of the Dead
The Typing of the Dead - a typing-teaching game based around House of the Dead 2
Flesh Feast - primitive 3D action game based around a zombie infestation.
Blood - classic FPS game, has some zombies in it.
Last Rites - A very outdated FPS game centering around a zombie apocalypse. Apparently got lots of bad reviews... but hey, it's got zombies!
Horror Zombies from the Crypt - old-school side-scroller action-adventure game.
Zombie Wars - another side-scroller action-adventure game. Sequel to "Halloween Harry".

Web-based games
Urban Dead - A massively-multiplayer RPG centering around a zombie outbreak in the quarrantined city of Malton. You can choose to play for the zombies or humans, and there's lots to do and the city is massive, and there's over 100,000 players all battling for control of the city.
The Dead Awaken - Another massively-multiplayer RPG, Dead Awaken has little quests to do and some NPCs to interact with, but it has fewer players overall, and the combat system needs some serious adjustment (in my opinion). It's still pretty fun, and hey, it's got zombies!
Bio-Nightmare - a brand-new zombie themed online game that just started. Farm for food, bolster troops, secure land, and get allies to help you flourish among the zombie hordes.

Game demos
Land of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green - PC demo for the new first-person-shooter
Resident Evil 2 - PC demo for Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis - PC demo for Resident Evil 3
Deadhunt - an interesting-looking low-budget FPS title, where you must fend off hordes of zombies and skeletons.
***Country Justice: Revenge of the Rednecks - defend your backwater town from the undead, redneck-style!

Hi, I only just registered so I could give you this game. Theres Zombie Horde 3 which is a game based on The resident evil movies (cos it has crows) and you play as a guy in an infected city, a really good game and you should link to it. It is a flash and java game.

Tons of great zombie games including all of these ones are available at Kill The Zombies!

Zombie Simulator is a fun game with no shooting involved.. you just drop zombies, humans and guns on the screen and watch it happen as nature intended.

Boxhead 2Play Rooms since you wrote this article, a new and even better Boxhead came out

Zombie Storm is another gruesome overhead zombie hunting game, only in this one if the civilians get attacked they become zombies too, so you have to watch out.

Monster Mash 2 is a really fun game like House of the Dead where zombies pop up on the screen and you shoot them.

Teh Zombie is a simple and very addictive game where you swing weapons at a screen full of zombies and see how many you can kill in a set time.

Zombie Erik is another House of the Dead style zombie shooting game. Lots of fun and pretty good graphics!

There are lots of awesome zombie games out there so I could go on and on. Anyways thanks for your great list!

Kill The Zombies!
