Is Over 9000 Zombies! worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Arcade action fans who want repeated survival battles against expanding enemy hordes
- Co-op groups seeking two-player online or four-player local zombie combat
- Creators who want to build custom levels and share them through Steam Workshop
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a campaign with a defined ending may bounce off the endless horde structure.
- Those who prefer slow, measured combat may hit a wall when enemy speed and difficulty keep increasing.
- Solo players who want the main experience built around story exploration may find the survival focus repetitive.
- Players looking for a quiet or restrained presentation may dislike the constant slaughter and intense electro-rock soundtrack.
Our take on Over 9000 Zombies!
The bounce point arrives when the horde stops behaving like a manageable crowd and begins accelerating with tougher variants. Players who rely on open movement must then combine weapon choice, barricades, and turrets, while the endless structure offers no conventional finish line.
What is Over 9000 Zombies!?
This top-down arcade action game pits players against an unending zombie horde that grows faster and more dangerous.
More than 20 weapons support different approaches, including firearms, explosives, fire, and experimental tools. Players can collect scrap metal to construct barricades and place automated turrets for crowd control. Co-op supports two players online or four players locally. Enemy types include flaming and poisonous zombies, zombie animals, giant eyeballs, and reanimated political figures. The game also includes level creation, allowing custom stages to be uploaded to the Steam Workshop. Its soundtrack features electro-rock from Clearside.
