ZOMBI Reviews
ZombiU was one of the diamonds in the Wii U's rough first year, but many said that the game -- which heavily used the Nintendo system's tablet-like pad -- couldn't be ported elsewhere
All in all, Zombi is a game that is much welcomed in the new platforms. It opens up a large space for a new audience barely compromising on features. It is a game where every aspect of it is very good, albeit never extraordinary. It's a very enjoyable game, but the combination of design choices make it feel both unique and strange.
Ubisoft's super-immersive zombie game infects the PS4, but there's not enough improvement to justify it to previous owners.
This is a reasonably priced port that is definitely recommended to anyone who doesn't own a Wii U.
It's all highly unsettling, and the most important things about the game -- its mood of fumbling desperation, its clapped-out London settings, its focus on exhaustion and disempowerment -- remain startlingly unchanged after the transition in platform and the stripping of the Wii U's clever propwork.
Zombi has transitioned to the PS4 rather well: the fear-inducing aspects of the second screen are re-created well enough to achieve similar scares, the loading times are greatly improved, and – three years later – it's still a unique survival title that never compromises its horror for action. It's a bit of a shame that its multiplayer mode is absent – a casualty of losing the second screen. Still, there's enough of an intense experience here to consider rising from your grave for.
Zombi defies the Wii U gamepad's supposed limitations and reanimates into its own impressive beast.
Zombi is an all round good zombie game. It doesn’t stand out above the rest as being a “must play” game, but if you are a zombie fan, you should most definitely check this game out. It wont be the best zombie game you ever played, but it’s fun. Good zombies, good survival, not a bad story and best of all it’s cheap!
Zombi is a game that might seem too ponderous and frustrating for many. But for those who appreciate a challenging atmosphere that tasks you with marshalling your fears and taking a studious approach to survival, it's a definite must-try.
Despite some ho-hum combat, Zombi's handling of death and exploration make it a worthwhile horror game.
It's not a totally different game or remake, but it doesn't have to be. Zombi is still one of the best survival horror games of this generation. It's tense, split second decisions can make the difference between life and death, and inventory management is a must, a feature sorely lacking in most horror games these days. 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.
A rather basic port instead of a revised version of an underrated gem it needed to be, Zombi still manages to hold up well three years on thanks to the way it makes great use of its location, subject matter and atmosphere to create an unnerving modern survival horror.
Zombi is a return to the roots of the genre of Survival-Horror, although you have to accept that due to its difficulty and combat system many people will turn their back after a few minutes, a game for lovers of the genre looking for a little torment . Hear Zombies approaching you will scare you again ...

One of the best survival horrors of recent years, that functions almost as well as the Wii U version and offers a mature-rated adventure that is as ruthlessly difficult as it is engrossing.
This charming survival horror game is a Wii U exclusive no more, but can it compete on other platforms?
The removal of some terrific features, plus the lack of effort for the PC version, serves to knock the game down a tad compared to its ZombiU alternative, but it is nonetheless a gruesomely enjoyable ride, and I honestly hope it gets the attention it deserves this time.
A potential classic let down by end-game design choices. A compelling take on the zombie apocalypse, supported by good voice acting and interesting locations. Credible, cautious exploration mostly makes up for clunky controls until end-game.
Surprisingly fresh for a carcass
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.
Zombi on XBox One is a port and is a clunk port but still has a few moments to shine on this next-gen console
