This article is about the original 1986 game. For the 2015 re-release of ZombiU, see ZOMBI.

Zombi is a 1986 point-and-click action-adventure game for the Amstrad CPC and is Ubisoft's first published game. It is the first instalment in the Zombi series.
Gameplay[]
Like it's successor, Zombi is played from a first-person perspective. The game borrows heavily from the George A. Romero film Dawn of the Dead: four protagonists exploring a zombie-filled shopping mall, gunshops, escalators, and the articulated trucks used to block the entrances. If a character's health is depleted, he turns into a zombie, which then roams the room they died in (a mechanic which was carried over to the 2012 instalment ZombiU). Zombies can be killed either by numerous body shots, or a single shot to the head. Characters are named after the creators of the game.
Ports[]
The game was re-released in 1990, with ports developed for the ZX Spectrum (by Geoff Phillips, Colin Jones and Steve Chance), Commodore 64 (Jean-Noel Moyne, Laurent Poujoulat, Jean Francois Auroux), Amiga (Alexander Yarmitsky), Atari ST and MS-DOS (Yannick Cadin).
