Zombi

Ubisoft has done a surprisingly good job with the port.

It is not the prettiest undead game out there. And with the omission of the second screen (even though it would have been possible on Vita or SmartGlass devices) the great atmosphere and immersion suffer, which characterized the WiiU version. But at its core it still is a tense and hard fought fight for survival.

Technically speaking, Zombi is just mediocre. But behind the looks, the game has still a lot to give, and every survival horror fan should give Zombi a chance.

Zombi is a great game that, sadly, suffers from the absence of what many people believed was its greatest flaw: the Wii U Gamepad. Even though the main campaign retains the gameplay basics that made the original game shine, the additional tension and stress derived from the use of the screen controller made the port feel as something incomplete and not unique. Despite this, it’s a title that those who have interest in it or didn't have the chance to play it in the past will enjoy.

Every bullet counts, every health item matters, and Zombi still offers a fantastic time for those that never experienced it originally – and now at a great price.

With more exciting combat, Zombi might have been a must-own for horror fans. As it stands, it’s a fun game that does most things right, but constantly reminds you of its biggest flaw.

Although the graphics look dated and the loss of the touch screen comes with some hiccups, it's still one hell of a ride for survival fans.

Zombi is still capable of putting you in a state of tension and fear, and that's the greatest achievement for a game that suffers from mediocre graphics and poor combat mechanics.

A solid game, with a few minor port issues, but at a budget price one you should be at least flirting with the idea of playing.

With Zombi, Ubisoft tried to get the best results with almost no efforts. Despite being a good survival horror with nice gameplay elements and a proper horror vibe, the game lacks in all the features which made it interesting on the Wii U. It's still fun and entertaining, but you shouldn't have raised expectations.

If you're a survival horror fan, and miss a time in gaming when a zombie bite was the scariest thing in the world, then you'll find a lot to suffer through here. In a good way.

At the right price, Zombi is a worthy purchase for some. Unfortunately, some of its technical shortcomings and painfully repetitive sequences kill much of the enjoyment. Not to mention some of the clumsy combat and dated gameplay makes for an experience that is far more tedious than it needs to be.

Spotty performance, a terribly boring aesthetic and a messy, cobbled together combat system amounts to something that had potential, but was beaten over the head with a cricket bat.

Zombi is a flawed port, but its technical issues can be overlooked, and underneath the hiccups lays a solid game.

Outside of the game-ending glitches and the poorly designed collection mission that we've mentioned, the experience is tension-filled and easily right up there with the best survival horror titles available today. The problem is that there's a very good chance that you'll give up after your umpteenth unfair death way before reaching the closing credits.
