Games, where player *is* a zombie?

Are there any? I'm asking for a scientific article claiming none exists.

Metal Slug 2 or 3 is the only one i can remember. Though only for a few seconds and then you turn human again.

No, I actually mean all possible platforms in 80's-90's.

Thanks for the Metal Slug tip

In the 1997 DOS FPS Blood the main character starts the game by rising from his grave. He's undead but I'm not sure if that counts as a zombie for your purposes.

Well, Left 4 Dead multiplayer is not 90s, but I once played a coop mod for Half-Life where you fought zombies and upon death, became one yourself.

Maybe Decap Attack for Mega Drive if it's zombie because I'm not sure what is it.

This is great info guys, thanks 😊 My scope covers "player as a zombie" in general, on all possible platforms and basically all games so far. I mentioned the 80-90s, because I knew you would be experts in those 😊

If fighting games are included, Lei-Lei and Hsien-ko are technically "zompi" mean Jiang-shi, jumping undead from chinese tradition...

I'm guessing the definition of zombie here would be "Romero style" ?

I mean if there is no time limit then basically in any of the three Dark Souls games you play a zombie

edit: no, now I shame myself. Only in the first one.

If Memory Serves
I believe that Skeleton Krew - you play as a member of a group of bio-enhanced cybernetic Zombies


Techincally:
Talisman on the humble ZX Spectrum you can play a Ghoul (which is like a semi-smart Zombie)
