60 of 165 · most liked firstIt's a game about wrangling a chaotic mob. It's less a zombie night than my after-hours grind.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Worth playing? Yes This little indie game is a hidden gem. I loved it. This game is so underrated. It is a strategy and puzzle game, but in this game, you are the Zombie Overmind controlling the entire zombie army. There are 5 chapters, with 10 levels in each chapter. 50 levels total. It follows a cohesive storyline, with some dark humor. There's 4 different types of zombies you can control, and there's 5 different zombie abilities they can perform, to help you on your quest to kill…

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Zombie Night Terror is a clever and highly original take on the classic Lemmings formula. Instead of saving helpless creatures, you control a zombie horde and guide it through levels in a calculated, often delightfully macabre way. The game is all about planning, logic and trial-and-error rather than reflexes. Everything is wrapped in a strong dose of dark humour, gory animations and a B-movie horror atmosphere. The pixel art is excellent, and the level design frequently surprises with smart…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great art style, pretty original concept, funny dialogue, replayability, and it has challenge but it isn't unfair. You can make levels for other people to play too! This game is truly one of my all-time favorites.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Speaking of playing with horror scenarios, Zombie Night Terror is a great Lemmings-inspired puzzle game where you feed mutations to a zombie horde in order to help them get a bite to eat, paint the town red, make some friends. Surprisingly few Lemmings-like games! Also has a lot of user-made levels
unlabelledView post →its extremely fun at first, you begin unlocking abilities and variants and such, then it quickly ramps up in difficulty and becomes extremely annoying to play because of its trial and error way of playing. if you want to play approx. half of the game, buy it. if you want to torture yourself with a game where a single mistake can end your entire run and force you to restart, since there are no save files, buy this. personally, i never even could finish the last chapter most of the community…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →While the first half of the game is quite enjoyable, the latter half - starting with the end of the lab segments - really fall off in enjoyment. Puzzles go from relatively obvious to unnecessarily obscure. Challenges are outright just not fun to play around, and the "clever way" to deal with the increasing difficulty is increasingly aggravatingly obscure methods of abusing mechanics you didn't know/forgot existed up until the game suddenly decides they're useful. Of course, without telling you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I will recommend Zombie Night Terror to everyone I know. Zombie Night Terror is the best zombie game I've played; except, maybe Left 4 Dead. I will never stop talking about Zombie Night Terror or Left 4 Dead.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →✔️ The Good • Creative Gameplay Twist: *Zombie Night Terror* flips the zombie genre by putting you in control of the horde. The strategic gameplay of infecting humans and managing your zombies is a unique and refreshing take on the genre. • Challenging Puzzles: The game combines strategy with puzzle elements, requiring you to think carefully about how to use your zombies to overcome obstacles and outsmart enemies. Each level feels like a clever challenge. • Retro Pixel…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Basically it's A LOT like Lemmings, but with zombies. Included with this analogy is MORE THAN A LOT of trial and error until you're able to figure out the perfect run for each level. Thankfully the dark humour caused by the gameplay and the B-Movie likeness in the story sequences (all done from within the game engine) will keep you coming back. I haven't tried the editor yet (and probably nevel will), but if you still haven't got enough out of the game by finishing the campaign, this way you…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun flesh eating lemmings-like game that goes on sale at such a ridiculously low price I felt so guilty for buying it that I bought copies for friends and upgraded my edition and even then it hardly costed anything. Initially held off since I've been burned out on power fantasy zombie games and the trailers really only show zombies eating people.. however a negative review won me over when said author complained about it not being a relaxing game and that it was something that made him…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's definitely a good game despite having such little game time. However, a question I remember asking early in the games development process was is this a strategy game or a puzzle game and the developer at the time didn't know how to give me a proper answer. This is definitely more of a puzzle game than a traditional strategy game. What is the difference? A.) Well with a strategy game you can typically employ many different strategies to achieve victory or success. Where'as with puzzle…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Puzzle game reminiscent of Lemmings, but with an undead twist. Has a cool premise, but that can only carry the game so far -- and with the content beyond the first third being full of overly long levels, repetitive mechanics, and an over-reliance on trial-and-error gameplay, the experience rapidly turns into one that’s far too frustrating to be worthwhile. 5/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →#VideoGameBacklog "Zombie Night Terror" (PC, 2016) is: what if Lemmings but you're spreading a zombie apocalypse instead helping cute creatures get home? I want to like this game by NoClip. The level designs and actions are interesting, but it gets frustratingly tough quickly. #indiegames

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game as a gift from my best friend, I didn't think expect much of it seeing as I never heard of it before but it caught me with surprise with how fun, challenging and creative the game is. The premise is simple but well-executed, it's just controlling a hoard to kill a set amount of people, the methods of which are in the player's hands as the difficulty curves up even after just a while of playing, requiring more outside the box thinking and imagination. Lastly, this is a homage to…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Things I love: -Game play -Graphics -Amazing level editor! Things I like: -Humour -Freedom -Lots of options Things I don't like: -Sometimes repetitive -Sometimes too challenging -Occasional nudity Overall: 11/10 definitely buy, especially if on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a really cool take on the mega-old classic - LEMINGS! But with Zombies! XD Felt fairly challenging, too, not really a casual experience. Rewarding, though.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Masterpiece. I will remember this for years.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A humorous, atmospheric strategy game in which traditional roles are reversed, giving us the satisfying role of plunging humanity into a zombie apocalypse. It has a distinctive retro style, various references to horror classics and well-designed scenarios which I enjoyed. ⭐ Achievement-wise, the list consists mainly of grind and gimmicky ones, which don't pose much of a challenge on the path to 100% completion.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you liked Lemmings, you'll probably love Zombie Night Terror. It got the fun puzzle gameplay but replaces lemmings with a zombie horde. The dark humor, silly gore, and pixel art makes it an easy recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →KAMGUSTA'S MINI REVIEW It's "lemmings" with a zombie theme. Graphic is bad, pixelated as hell - to the point you'll have hard time recognizing things. Game is almost black/white and that doesn't help. Less boring than the original, as there are zombies, weapons, a little gore, and so on - but still boring. Pass. :) Best played with mouse & keyboard Recommended buy price: 3$ Score: 5,5/10

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it's a good game that 100% needs more people playing it too bad it seems like the devs won't be updating it anymore
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Zombie Night Terror, developed by NoClip and published by Good Shepherd Entertainment, is a gleefully macabre puzzle-strategy game that turns the zombie apocalypse on its head by putting players in command of the undead rather than the survivors. It takes the familiar setup of humanity’s downfall and transforms it into a clever and chaotic experience where the player’s primary task is not to survive but to spread the infection. Drawing clear inspiration from classics like Lemmings, it replaces…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An amazingly creative zombie-puzzle game work of art. Absolutely recommended.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Like others have said, it's a great Lemmings like game with zombies. Awesome art, game-play and level design and doesn't take itself too seriously.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it is a well made and fun game too bad its dying slowly ):
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →super fun lemmings like game but with zombies. challenging and funny, makes me laugh a lot! some missions are really tricky and engaging too. very cool game and excellent pickup for the price if you like pixel games, humor, zombies and lemmings style gameplay! :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →got this game cause wanted some mindless stupid fun but its not a mindless stupid fun game forces you to think and plan out attacks which is okay but its not fun or least it was at first now I just find it stupid harder it got just became unfun not worth the sale price imo
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A forgotten gem
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →just plain fun. goes on sale for really low price often, but I'd say I've gotten more value out of it than the non-sale/regular price would have suggested.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Man I love this game, I wish there were more levels or even a sequel. From the amazing level design to the kick ass parts of watching a tank run through 20 humans and watching their heads pop. It’s so good, 100% worth the price all the way. The references as well are charming, that being the terminator, walking dead, and night of the living dead 2. It almost feels like a love letter to the zombie genre while adding a unique and challenging game design. I haven’t found many games that let you…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fun "puzzle" game where you have to use your zombies and their abilities to kill all the humans required. Hard at times, challenging, arcadey and with awesome pixel art. Instant recommend :)

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stress completing the levels. yeah i recommend it! Btw we need zombie night terror 2 and April Fox hotter :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →fun game, although what people say about the tedium of restarting levels when you ♥♥♥♥ up is kinda true. at least there's a fast forward button for that, though. also very satisfying for a puzzle game because of the carnage.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →awesome pixelated zombie game very cool zombies and concept
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game, challenging at times. Love the art style and music. Would recommend to anyone that enjoys zombies.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a very well executed Lemmings + Night of the Living Dead.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An awesome synthesis and revival of the horror/comedy tropes of the 70's- to '90's zombie movies, in a 2-d chew-them all tactical black-and white form. Really a fun, ironic and lovely game, I wish to thank the developers for this!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lemmings but with zombies.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You get to BE the ZOMBIE APOCALYSPE!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Puzzle game with zombies, and b-movie charm.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For the asking price of a dollar, this is a fantastic game. I got sucked into it for 2 and a half hours on that 'just one more level' Zen before I blinked. Tons of B movie schlocky charm. You will be incensed watching the little pixel bastards dancing away behind locked doors while you work out a way to break in and tear them apart and add them to your mass of bodies. Tons of replayability, because the bonus objectives on each level can be very demanding and require perfect execution and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I only just realised years later I never reviewed this game! It's a fantastic game, unique, artisticly exellent and cool premise. Deeply underrated!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A zombie indie game thats awesome, and also there is an level editor so you can make your own.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →zombie cool me happy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. Level Editor is buggy as hell but if you get it, it's a great editor.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →miss the old lemmings games? i do! this scratches that itch an lets you be evil at the same time >:-)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very fun game. Requires brain to play after a certain point it gets somewhat tricky.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A classic game that deserves all the love and attention. I do hope that some day, It'll make a comeback. Solid 10/10!!!! :D
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A puzzle game where you direct zombies and use mutations to overcome enemies and traps. Starts out strong and fun, but does get a bit "ugh" and "really now?" near the end of the game. Still a fun game to play overall.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →is very fun to play, you can download some workshop map to play,i really recommend to play this game a lot
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome Game Definitely try it. More than worth the price.
