Team Xbox

Four player co-op is the proper way to attack Zombie Wranglers, giving it that Gauntlet feel of adventurism. Even the competitive multiplayer action, which is a race to out-zombie goo your friends, is more enjoyable than running through Wranglers as a solo, mini Dr. Venkman.

Sadly, the basic objectives in each level rarely change. [Oct 2008, p.81]

Official Xbox Magazine UK

A monster mash but no graveyard smash. [Nov 2008, p.101]

IGN

Zombie Wranglers has all of the usual trappings of a middling Xbox Live Arcade game, such as repetitive gameplay, cheesy jokes and bad sound effects. What makes it such a chore, though, are the base mechanics. The game just isn't much fun.

Zombie Wranglers attempts the kid friendly zombie fest but proves that without the blood, gore and violence zombies are a bit lame. This is one to miss.

X360 Magazine UK

Zombie Wranglers sucks. Especially the 'comedy' names they've given each level. They really suck. [Issue#35]

PALGN

It looks nice, but even for kids, it's not terribly deep or interesting. You could do a lot better.

A broken, boring, bland zombie killfest.
