This apocalyptic zombie browser based game, inspired by UD, is similar in many regards. Featuring a relatively fast AP regen rate, a plethora of skills and classes (be a medic, warrior, scientist, engineer, smart zombie, and so much more), multiple floor buildings, central power grids for districts, and much more. The game is currently in open beta, and open to suggestions (which if good, are often implemented). If you're a fan of UD, come join this great game!

A zombie game in French.

Cities

Cities is a similar online game, inspired by urban dead but with a different playing style.

The cities game is geared towards less stressful play, with much more variation and less strategy. There is (almost) no player vs player stuff and the jokes are much worse.

Perform various quests to gain abilities and statistics. The quests are fairly varied.

Cities also has a wiki.

Cities has been created by the Temple ov thee Lemur, creators of the potato powered webserver and other internet annoyances.

Zombie Pandemic

Note - This game is in development and as such cannot currently be played.

Zombie Pandemic is similar to Urban Dead with a huge city from which the players take part in a massive zombie outbreak scenario. The object of the game is to make it to the safe zone aiding other survivors and without getting eaten by the zombies. Other aspects which makes Zombie Pandemic different is enriched RPG elements, different skill trees and use of realistic navigation on a real world map which consist of hundreds of locations offering even more game events and quests in a rich storyline. The game has a more graphical profile too and offers rich concept art and a rich inventory with tons of weapons and a more advanced combat system
