    Default Any RPGs that you get to play a zombie

    So some of my friends want to play a one shot game where they get to play zombies. So can anyone point to a system that will let me run a game like that?

    focused specifically around being a zombie, I can't think of any, but using templates is an easy way to stick with familiar systems. Just homebrew intelligence scores into a D&D Zombie Template of your current character, or make a new zombie.

    GURPS Probably has something, but I don't know.

    All Flesh Must Be Eaten includes a scenario with an outline of how to play a game as zombies instead of survivors.

    If you refluff some powers from Mutants&Masterminds, you could probably pull it off. Put in some stuff like immunities, Nauseate (maybe), Anatomic Separation

    But I expect AFMBE is better for this. (I wouldn't know. I've never played it).

    It does work in GURPS. At least the zombie from GURPS Magic has an IQ score and is playable.

    Sonny 1 and 2? But that's a video game RPG, not a tabletop RPG. Fun flash game, though.
