About This Game
Step 1
When you start the game you have been deposed from your kingdom, left for dead in a swamp, and your riches spread across the land.
You are dead and you have no body parts. No eyes. No ears. Not even legs.
Step 2
You have a very limited amount of life force. You can only go so far and jump so high.
Before you die collect as much gold as possible.
Step 3
Use the gold that you collected and buy your body parts back.
When you buy eyes you get color vision. When you get your ears you can hear. If you want to run further you buy a longer health meter.
SIDE NOTE: There are no microtransactions or IAP!
Step 4
As you upgrade your corpse you can get further and further.
Step 5
Buy advanced upgrades such as wall-jump, shields, and spike resistant boots.
Step 6
Explore! The world of Return of the Zombie King is huge with over 4 environments, and 100 levels.

What a sad game. Unplayable because of some "randomized" bullshit with scaming newsletter. A F2P tactict on a paid game.

A fun little game with a rather "mobile" feel based on the control scheme. A bit of farming, a bit of progression, and an interesting game mechanic that starts at the very first stage. Read the story on the store page, your game isn't broken if it doesn't look or sound right, it's all part of the fun. There are sections where I had to replay a level many times to earn enough gold, or had to learn how to pass it by changing strategy. The levels make you think, and once you gain some abilities, going back to earlier levels gives the game some replay-ability. The on-screen tips are important. Enemies are varied enough to force you to learn their patterns, and timed well enough to scream at your controller every time you fall into a pit. I do wish the "upgrade" levels could be skipped after the first use, as they don't provide any new information or gameplay, And I'd like to get back to the map and menu system without having to start a level, which may be a bug, may be based on diff...
I liked this game its fun and short and I did enjoy upgrading my character and watching him develop. Although as I got towards the end of the game around world 9 there were some levels where I had a full set out hearts and I would fail or struggle to make it to the end. Then in world 10 all the levels were fine. I think the difficulty should progress in a more even way as some levels were harder than others in earlier worlds
This game is pretty simple. ( so far ) Is that a bad thing? Not really. I do hope to see more stuff as the game opens up. 6.5 out of 10 7.5 out of 10 if you are a platformer junkie like me.
[i]No your sound system isn't broken, you simply don't have ears yet![/i] From the creator of One Screen Platformer comes One Finger Platformer - I mean, Return of the Zombie King. It's a rather addictive autoscrolling platformer with roguelite RPG elements in which you'll need twitch reflexes to collect as many coins as possible to help grow The King back to his former glory. The game's quite fun for what it is, though I'll admit there were levels that took me quite a few tries and that seemed like a bit of a roadblock until I collected more coins to upgrade my energy. Also I'm glad there was an option to turn off the screen flashes because they gave me a bit of a headache to be honest. Bottom line: quite a fun game. It's pretty cool to see your character growing and the art is pretty as well. Considering the price I'd say definitely give this a try! Also: this game is a big step-up from the dev's previous game. It's bigger, longer, prettier, harder, better, faster, stronger. I'm ...
I should had review this game sooner to be honest.. The developer has put too much effort into it and deserves recognition. The opening is interesting.. At first it seems very simplistic and empty but this is an illusion.. You'll soon come to realize the game has A LOT of stuff to do. It will keep you entertained for hours and chances are you might even restart the game just to power up again. No experience is the same as they are indeed random generated but NOT in "boxes"; that means that it's not like it has a preset of many areas and puzzles together 3-4-5 of those for a run. It's more detailed and complicated. The controlling is smooth and responsive. If you fail, it's on you :P Given time you'll become better and stronger. Maybe even the dev might come to say hi ;) The achievements aren't very easy or very difficult but, in my opinion, they help in giving you more reasons to try something new in the game. I like this approach and it isn't annoying. I already had many hours of...
Return Of The Zombie King is a satisfying 2D runner with simple controls and gameplay mechanics that make you feel like you're making progress on every run. Your goal is to collect coins, die, upgrade and repeat to make your way back to your kingdom and retake your throne. I finished my first run in 7.1 hours to give you an estimate of the game's length. It may be slightly more or less for others, depending on their skill level. If you're an achievment hunter, you may be tempted to not buy ears or eyes to get all the achievements in one run. I'd advise you not to do this! The levels (particularly the pixel art backgrounds) are so beautiful that I somewhat wish there was a photo mode, so you really don't want to miss out of that! I'd recommend a second playthrough after finishing the game for the first time, so that you can really appreciate the beauty of it on your first run. This game is made by Return To Adventure Mountain, aka Chris Zukowski - the creator of other games, including...
Return Of The Zombie King is a trash mobile game that is ported to PC for no reason. You only use spacebar to jump, that's all. This is a platformer game where you can't control your speed or stop your character. Buying back your body parts idea sounded cool so I wanted to try this. Only 5 or 6 upgrades are body parts and rest of them are useless garbage upgrades. Oh, by the way you need spend sh*t ton of money to get these useless upgrades. First 2 worlds was fun to play after that it became too repetitive and too grindy. Any sane person would stop playing after the 3rd world. Looking at the achievement unlock rate, most of the people stopped playing, good for them. Since I'm a mentally deranged person, I continued playing. Let me tell you, Borderlands and Diablo requires less grinding than this piece of dog t*rd. Also, levels are procedurally generated, it means they suck a**! There are floating enemies, floating spikes, level names appear behind the level geometry and you can't see ...
