    Overall, 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.

    Packed with lots of funny gags and a unique, beautiful art style, Zombie Vikings is a solid action game.

    I’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.

    The 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.

    Zombie 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.

    A 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.

    The premise for Zombie Vikings is great - Loki steals Odin's one good eye and takes off, only to be chased by undead Vikings (you) that OdinThe premise for Zombie Vikings is great - Loki steals Odin's one good eye and takes off, only to be chased by undead Vikings (you) that Odin summons up for the hunt.

    The controls are solid, the graphics are gorgeous, and the characters are fleshed out. I can't tell how many minutes of wonderful cut scenes this game contains, but it feels like they alone could make up for a normal-length feature movie. Talk about value for money! The dialogue is marvellous and suits the game perfectly - like everything else in Zombie Vikings, it's whacky and hilarious. What a step up from Stick It To The Man!, which was already a lot of fun!    … Full Review »

Easy to start and get into with friends, hilarious attacks and laid back progression. If you're familiar with the Norse mythology you'll also find bits and pieces that makes you chuckle. Very good game, minus 2 points because of buggy UI where the health bars can disappear after an in-game shop visit and that when the screen zoom out during battles, it can be hard to focus on your own character. But you'll get through it by button-mashing anyway.… Full Review »
