There are a number of zombie games available for fans of the genre, but most of them involve the player taking the role of a human trying to survive a zombie apocalypse. Today's #SteamSpotlight feature does the exact opposite. And by exact opposite, we mean the player gets to be the zombie hunting down humans.
The game may nearly be nearly two decades old, but it's definitely still definitely a goodie. We're talking about none other than Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse.

Released on November 15, 2005, Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse is developed and published by Aspyr. It is a zombie game set in 1959 in fictional city of Punchbowl. As mentioned, you take on the role of a zombie whose main goal is to chomp on the brains of the living.
You can basically create your own of zombies as you go through the game and pretty much bring civilization to its knees. You can use your undead allies to lead an assault on the remaining humans trying to survive.
