(CriticalIndieGamer)Before the WiiU launched, Zombiu was hotly tipped to be its first killer app, and whether you agree with that or not, it made a big impact upon its release.

Much noise was made around its novel use of the gamepad as a map and inventory screen, drawing your eyes away from any lurking zombies approaching on the TV. Yet, even the game’s harshest critics conceded that there was something special lurking beneath ZombiU’s rotting facade. But what is ZombiU without Nintendo’s unconventional controller? Zombi, as it is now known, plays the same as before but it is, arguably, all the better for having dropped the “U” from its name.
