Our take on I, Zombie
The premise foregrounds the novelty of playing as a zombie, but the core activity is deliberate horde management: infecting civilians, issuing a small set of commands, and planning around armed enemies. The level editor adds creation tools, though the listing gives no detail about their scope.
What is I, Zombie?
I, Zombie puts the player in control of a zombie horde whose objective is to infect every human on each map.
Newly infected humans join the group and can be used against armed soldiers. The horde can be ordered to attack enemies, follow the leader, or wait. Each scenario calls for tactical planning to reach its objective. The game also includes an in-game level editor for creating custom scenarios.
