About This Game

Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn is a challenging, fast paced, 2D survival shooter! And when we say fast, we mean breakneck, flat-out, adrenaline fuelled fast! What’s different from the other shooters is your goal isn’t to run through levels and finish the game, but to survive for as long as possible under increasingly frantic conditions (we say as long as possible because ultimately you will die!).



Seems simple enough, but where Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn really takes off is in the added layers of depth and huge variety of features and customisation available. Players earn money for slaughtering the zombies (money might not bring you happiness, but it does buy you guns!). We live in a consumer society after all, which is useful, as you can spend big on over 25 different weapons (including chainsaw, katana, mini-gun, RPG, D.O.M. and many others!). You also need cash to open doors, activate jumps, buy new weapons, or hunt for the magic fridge and see what loot drops are inside! In short… the longer you survive, the more weapons and prizes you get.

Surviving longer also gains you ZKW-Points which you can cash in to totally customize your character, customize your weapons, buy new weapons, buy different perks, open new maps, and a lot lot more! Players also earn XP as they play, allowing them to level-up their character and develop them to fit their chosen gameplay skills. Survival is all about the margins, and every little extra helps!



The Steam release also features an exclusive level editor for the Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn community, which allows the community to create their own custom and bespoke maps, then share them with friends (and enemies) for everyone to enjoy. Endless permutations and maps means endless challenges.

With a compelling single player survival mode, as well as cooperative multiplayer for up-to four players, this is one zombie firefight you are not going to want to miss! If that wasn't enough you can even play cross-platform play with Android owners too!



  • Kill zombies with a very wide arsenal of weapons, including: Chainsaw, RPG, D.O.M., katana and many others!
  • Over 20 Steam Achievements
  • 4 stunning maps
  • Exclusive Level Editor for PC. Create your own custom maps, then upload and share with friends.
  • Cooperative multiplayer for up-to 4 players
  • Full controller support
  • Online highscores
  • Cloud profiles
  • Weapon customization
  • Player customization
  • Skills, trophies, perks, blood and gore!
  • Original sound tracks composed by Roland La Goy
  • Cross-platform play with Android allowing you to carry on playing on the go!

lol this game is hilarious and a ♥♥♥♥ load of fun. I was just playing online with two other people and it was awesome. The game's biggest problem however is that I got lucky and hosted a game and two people joined. The last two days since then I cannot get anyone else to join and will probably have to advertise in the forum for a friend or two to play with.

The game is wave attack on tiered stages. You have to get money from kills to unlock doors and buy weapons to make it to the top and upgrade something at the top to I assume finish the level. We got to wave 23 which is absolute insanity and didn't make it. It gets pretty tough after 15+ waves. What really surprises me is the sheer amount of customization the game has which is unheard of for such basic indie games with old school graphics like this. You can upgrade weapons, character stats, unlock new weapons and grenades and gadgets, craft stuff, and customize your dude's outfit. You can wear masks that give nods to a ton of games, such as Bill from Left 4 Dead, the Chicken mask from Hotline Miami, Leatherface, and a bunch more. Considering how much customization options there are it is hard to believe the game is only 23mb. The controls and sound are great and the music is freaking awesome hard core metal. The graphics are hilariously old school new retro. I love this game! $7 is a fair price and I got it for 50% off which is a steal for some solid fun.

It doesn't get much better than slaughtering zombies while hard core slamming metal plays.

666/10 I will head bang at your mother's funeral.

Zombie Kill of the Week, the game that was originally created back in 2010, and now, it's Reborn.

In this game, you play as your whoever you feel like you want to be. You are forced to survive wave after wave against a horde of zombies that will try to get you at whatever cost at all. After a certain amount of waves a Mini-boss will spawn and your goal is to kill it, and once you do something magical happens. You can buy perks, upgrade weapons and upgrade skills using ZKW-coins that you earn by playing the game from within the ingame Store- you can also customise your player and use the ingame map editor to make your own maps and share them on StillRunnings own servers (You will need to make a StillRunning account to do so). And multiplayer works great, from what i have seen. I didn't experience any lag at all and people where able to join my lobby without any problems.

There are many maps to chose from, and in most maps you will be able to find a cellphone that will let you add bots to your game later on. Also, like in the Call of Duty Zombies mode, there are drops that give you special powers such as insta-kill or rapid fire.

Overall, this game is amazing for the price. 5.99€ for a game that will bring you hours of fun! :)

Pre-Release Review
I got to say when I got this game I figured, "Hey, it a game I can blow some
time on and move on." Well that blowing some time became hours n hours. I love the idea;
you start from nothing and as you Kill and Progress your character gets stronger.
Better perks, Weapons, ect. There is so much to upgrade that it makes you want to
play more to unlock the next thing. As well the clothing you can buy for your character
was a big "EPIC". Seeing so many refrences from other games, one being my faviorte Cave Story.
The bosses in this game made it more of me wanting to play to see more and what else the game
had to toss at me. All in all it a great game and I had a blast if you are into zombie horde killing
and challenges this game is a Pick me up. I also made a video review if you guys would like to check that out.
I will lick it at the end of my Post here: https://youtu.be/DJR_GWsZqBM

Game is Very good, some multiplayer issues. Mainly lag and connecting but tou can fix your "Failing to Connect issue" by verifying your files (it only takes less than a second).

Pros and Cons:

+ Boss Fights.
+ Good amount of weapons.
+ SoundTrack is Awesome.
+ Multiple types of zombies to kill.
+ Character Customization.
+ Leveling up system.
+ Character and Weapon upgrades.
+ Character Customization (Appearance).
+ The Sounds in the game are good.
+ "Mystery Fridge" (gives you a random weapon or meat, or it can just teleport somewhere else on the map).
+ Upgrade Machine to upgrade your lovely weapons :)
+ Bots are Amazing (path finding for them is kinda strange but they know how to shoot a gun)
+ Edit the way the Bots look.
+ Achievements give ZKW coins that allow you to buy weapons, weapon upgrades, clothing for your character and more. There is acutally a point to getting these achievements.

- 4 Maps only (more will be added in future updates).
- Can get boring without friends :(
- That weird connecting to freinds issue (which can be easily resolved by verifying files).
- Server Lag (when you shoot your gun, the bullets have a second delay before exiting the gun).

All of the issues should be solved soon
Devs are nice people :)
One of them changed my freinds username when he made an error typing it :D

I Rate this game a nice 8/10.

Pre-Release Review
I played Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn for three hours and I can say: it is a very addictive game, the gameplay is very simple, you kill waves of zombies and you explore a stage with weapons (the shotgun feels very good in this game), powerups, keys to open doors, in some waves big zombies as bosses will apear, for me the goal of the levels is to reach the telephones because if you find one, you will have a bot to help you (I unlocked two for now), of course you can have human allies if you go to the multiplayer, playing this game with friends is very fun.

For now I unlocked the four stages and it seems there is another coming, it seems the game will have support and development after the release.

If you like 2D games and you love those games where you have to kill waves of enemies, It is an awesome game.

Now I'm a almighty viking, which is accompanied by three maids.
I have nothing to regret with my chainsaw and maids with miniguns!

So, Zombie Kill of the Week - Reborn is a 2D survival shooter.
It is like Killing Floor but as 2D. There is no jobs, but when you level up you can spend points to upgrade your stats.
Weapons can be bought around the maps.

You can play ZKW alone or with other players. When playing alone, you can add bots to fight with you.
Believe me, those bots will save your life... Or ruin it.

Graphic is kinda nostalgic. It isn't breathtaking, but it is good for this kind of game.

I personally can't play this game in fullscreen because my eyes starts to hurt.
So switching to windowed is good for me.

Controls are working, but you may want to chance some keybinding.

Is this game worth it price?
Well, I think it is. ZKW is enjoyable when playing alone and with other players.
I like shooting everything that moves and painting walls with blood is always fun.
In my opinion this game will be most enjoyable when playing with VoIP.
ZKW's chat isn't currently (14.3.2015) good for having talk about weather.
ZKW is really good game for LAN-party.

Oh... I almost forgot.... Those grenades hurt!

Great game, especially to play with friends, all i can reccomend are a few things. Make it so there is a perk system, in game, multiple upgrade levels, buyable melees WITH ZKW POINTS, that last permanately, not just the average one time use stuff. and i would especially love larger, more diverse maps with new and changing features. but you guys should seriously consider the perks.... i would love a regen perk. Oh yeah and the choice of 'taking' a weapon out of the fridge, not just pulling them at random, like "PRESS V TO TAKE WEAPON" OR "PRESS C TO DECLINE" Other than that i am so glad to see this game out on the PC market and not just on the moble world, i will admit I was sad to see the game not being updated but I hope you will focus on this game a LOT. Anyways excuse my gramatical errors in this review but I cannot stress that this is a great game, the customization is great, music is awsome, and i have even made about 4 maps. When you get this game, which i know you will....PLAY IT TILL YOU ARE INFECTED

'Took me a little while to get the hang of it, but I like it ! I'm usually not much into 2 dimensional games, but the zombie shooting theme, with the creep metal music gets me going . I played like a doink for a while, untill I noticed how to use my zombie credits to get the perks . The graphics are chinsy old school arcade, like way back, but I don't mind that either, when I consider how some games just won't play well on my pre-NVIDIA graphics driver laptop . THIS COULD BE A FUN TWO PLAYER LOCAL GAME, IF PROGRAMED SO PLAYER TWO CAN ONLY GO TWO THIRDS OF A SCREEN DISTANCE AWAY FROM PLAYER ONE !!!!!!!!!! I'm enthusiastically awaiting a follow up, just don't call it number two; (I always hate that number) - call it Zombie Kill of the Month, and make the graphics about as good as Mortal Kombat Three, with a lot of sweet bloody explosions, and some more creep metal options, and gangsta funk, and more believable screams, and put in a local two player option like I suggested, and then you should have a big hit !!!

The game is super enjoyable.

At the first look of the game you my think something like "Naah, there is nothing to reach at this game" but I can promise, after dozens of hours there is still a lot to be reach.
You can unlock even more weapons, you can craft some fancy items, you can make your own maps if you get bored of the regular ones, you can play online multiplayer with your friends, you can try to be a badass and dominate the hiscore boards and the list goes on.

In my opinion this is the best "wavebased" (is that even a word : D) game that I have played so far. I strongly recommend to buy this.

I've been a groupie and kinda part of this since the first version of 2010 and I have enjoyed every minutes I've played it.

So if you get playable content for the next 5 years why not to buy it ;)
