Sep 18, 2016Overall, Zombie Vikings produces a humorous adventure in the same narrative style as Zoink’s smash hit Stick it to the Man, therefore Zombie Vikings is just as highly recommended as Stick it to the Man for players who appreciate action, adventure and platform genres, especially when fused with comedy.
-
Sep 30, 2015Packed with lots of funny gags and a unique, beautiful art style, Zombie Vikings is a solid action game.
-
Sep 29, 2015I’m a huge zombie fan and have been for years. I never thought I’d get to see a game combine these two elements together to include an extremely humorous tale.
-
Sep 16, 2015The occasional groan-worthy joke and technical hiccup may turn some off, but underneath those issues, Zombie Vikings is a mechanically solid and visually vibrant throwback brawler.
-
Sep 8, 2015Zombie Vikings is a fun beat ’em up that has some excellent moments of humour, with distinct feeling playable characters and a moderate level of difficulty. While the single-player alone is good, the multiplayer is where Zombie Vikings truly stands out. Zoink Games have shown once again why it is a studio worth keeping an eye on.
-
Sep 3, 2015A gloriously funny and unabashedly enjoyable side-scrolling hack em’ up, Zombie Vikings is great fun with friends but falls just short of true excellence on account of some glaring visual flaws.
-
CD-ActionNov 14, 2015A fun beat ‘em up wonderfully devoid of any deeper meaning. It’s one of those games you’ll forget about very quickly, but you’ll be playing it with a big smile. [11/2015, p.42]
-
Sep 22, 2015It's primarily a multiplayer experience, and that's where it really shines: played by yourself, it won't show enough lasting appeal.
-
Sep 22, 2015Zombie Vikings is most definitely one of the best indie games I’ve played through 2015, and I would highly recommend it. It’s a vast improvement on what was a similar-looking yet exemplary game in it’s own right, and it makes me excited for what Zoink have in stall in the future.

Sep 11, 2015If you have friends to play with then Zombie Vikings will be a fun way to spend a couple days with them. Otherwise, it’s a brawler with a lot of heart, but not enough variety.
-
Sep 4, 2015Not the best beat 'em up we have played, but definitely one of the most humorous we have seen.
-
Sep 11, 2015A fun, but unremarkable beat-em-up, best enjoyed with a group of friends.
-
Jan 31, 2016Zombie Vikings is basic brawler, but it's a basic brawler done right, and is quite funny in the process. And, really, that's all most people are looking for from this genre. There are far better examples out there of it, but as a Sunday afternoon killer, this one is nonetheless almost as worthy as Thor himself.
-
Oct 15, 2015Zombie Vikings is a charmingly designed beat-'em-up, but it's ultimately a fairly shallow one. It's fine for a multiplayer laugh, and even single player has its moments thanks to the humorous plot, but it's only likely to amuse you once, before you leave it on your hard drive waiting to rot.
-
Sep 13, 2015A fairly fun game that’s loads more fun with friends. It’s nothing really ground breaking though.
-
Mar 9, 2016Unfortunately the game also has some design issues, repetition and a solid lack of good jokes.
-
Sep 8, 2015Zombie Vikings is fun when played with friends, but it's unfinished. Maybe a few extra weeks or month could've changed our opinion, but now is in serious need of updating and patching.
-
Sep 23, 2015Even with a full squad of undead at the current price point of $19.99 it's still a questionable purchase. If you want your Beat 'em up thirst quenched, I would stick to a classic like something from the Streets of Rage series or something more modern like Castle Crashers.
-
Sep 16, 2015Overstays its welcome and starts to get rather monotonous around halfway through.
