I don’t know if it is the best zombie RPG, but I have heard All Flesh Must Be Eaten from Eden Studios is a pretty good game which many say IS the best. The publisher says:

There’s more to a zombie than just a walking corpse. While its busy busting down your front door and scooping out your sister’s brains you might not have time to think about that, but later, when you pause to reflect in the basement, hoping that door doesn’t give way and wondering how much food you have down here, you might want to consider just where these damn dead guys came from. After all, the dead don’t rise up and start consuming the flesh of the living for no reason at all. Behind every good zombie story there’s a good (or at least amusing) back story.

In All Flesh Must Be Eaten, the setting is not set. You will be presented with a dozen diffrent campaign settings to start your survival horror campaign. Modern day, post-apocalyptic, and even a setting set during World War II. Each setting details the reasons why the dead walk and how to kill them (if they can be).
In All Flesh Must Be Eaten, the question is “What if you were faced with a world gone to Hell, where ravenous undead sought living prey?”

What if you had to fight for survival, sometimes against former friends and loved ones?
Would you be curious to find out the cause of the horror?

Would you delve into the heart of the zombie-infested areas to discover the truth?

Would you brave death to end the threat? What if there were no cause, no solution?

Would it be better to simply flee for safety to ensure the survival of the race?

All Flesh Must Be Eaten is a game that combines elements of horror with survival and conflict.

Eden has a free introductory downloadable PDF adventure called “The Waking Dead” in which you wake up in a hospital, confused, alone, haunted by memories of the injury that put you there, and by strange dreams calling you to travel. You’re surrounded by strangers, others who look as confused as you. Nobody knows what ‘s going on. There’s only one thing for sure.

The world has gone to Hell.

You haven’t seen another living soul since you woke up. But that isn’t to say you haven’t seen others walking around. Because the city is crawling with walkers… rotting, starved, ravenous walkers who may once have been people, but now are just animated corpses, hungry for your flesh and blood. Your only hope: follow the dreams to find the survivors. But are your dreams leading you to hope and a new beginning…or betrayal and a death trap?

This is the world after the Rise… a world where the living struggle to reclaim society from the dead, for whom All Flesh Must Be Eaten!

Inside the All Flesh Must Be Eaten Introductory Game Kit you will find:

• Complete, streamlined rules for playing the All Flesh Must Be Eaten role playing game
• Six complete archetypes–Cast Members ready to play
• A complete adventure scenario and campaign outline which can be played in one or two sessions, or form the basis of months of continuous play.

  1. I have to say I took a peek at AFMBE back when it came out and I point out it was an interesting read (I’m sure that a lot has changed in the years since I read the first edition) but I don’t know if it’s the best zombie RPG on the market. Outbreak: Undead is solid and would be even more so with a few tweaks in a future edition. From memory I’d say All Flesh Must be Eaten would appeal to people looking for a traditional RPG set up where Outbreak will appeal to people who are looking at playing out a really challenging setting in which you’ll burn through characters at an astonishing rate – there is a reason it’s a zombie apocalypse and not just a zombie inconvenience…

    I should see if we might be able to peek at some of Eden Studios current offerings for the line.
