Undead Knights

Undead Knights is not going to appeal to everyone. Its combat is unrefined and the hack n' slash mentality will get old for those who demand a bit more depth and strategy to their games. However, those just looking for a replayable and ridiculous portable action game won't go far wrong with Tecmo's latest offering. It's got buckets of blood, armies of loyal zombies and characters that feel like complete and utter badasses.

It's a lot of fun to be commanding corpses rather than running from them. [Mar 2010, p.88]

Good intentions, intense action, humour and problematic controls. A nice action game for your handheld.

An unusual product: a little bit of God of War with some drops of Overlord and Pikmin. Still, this game is not brilliant, 'cause of the creepy graphics and the iterative gameplay.

If you must play everything that contains Zombies, this might hold your interest for a bit, but the interesting concept quickly loses its appeal. There are way too many short-comings to make this a worth-while purchase; a bit more development time would have done wonders to the final product. If you see this Zombie Army, I suggest you move in the other direction.

I have no doubt that some people will enjoy the mindless violence and see it as an interesting take on the Dynasty Warriors formula. It makes for a quick pick up and play title because the stages are really short, lasting between 10-20 minutes a chapter. I just wish the overall game had better mechanics.

Controlling armies of the undead really shouldn’t be this dreary.

I'm not a fan of these kind of games. But this one has a good meaty gameplay. your screen is always full of enemies and that is fun!

This game is not a bad game. Yet, it has its flaws. For example, the repetitive enemies and level design. The controls are also quite strange, especially for a hack and slash game. Something for the fans.

I don't see why I would play this game over PS2 God of War or any Orochi Warrior game. It doesn't add anything new to the genre.
