Beautiful, highly detailed and varied scenery. It actually makes sense to use a vehicle to get to the quest locations.
+
-
 
+
-
The zombies are pretty tough. I seem to die here more than anywhere else.
+
-
 
+
-
Several repeatable quests. (last count: 11) The quests are challenging, without grinding. The quest givers actually give useful hints when you prod them.
+
-
 
+
-
Excellent racetrack with lap timer. You'd better swerve for zombies!
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
1 full sim - ''Isle of Clarity - Moderate''. The rules don't disallow nudity in the Zombie area. The sim owner didn't seem to mind either.

Modern city with several kill quests. You also get to destroy stuff, scoring points in a separate mini-game.

-
Crush windows! Blow up gas tanks! Shoot mailboxes and teller machines! One minute later they are good as new. The zombie killing action is also quite satisfying.

-
Don't miss Small Town II, the tougher area.  Reached by sim teleporter.
 
-
 
-
'''Note:''' Only GCS weapons able to shoot bullets work with the mini-game. Set your ranged weapon's Bullets to "GCS damage" before teleporting here as the zone setting doesn't allow it for some reason.

Atmospheric swamp with rotting wooden buildings.

-
Unlike most other zombie zones it uses the day/night cycle, which works quite well here. Varying action intensity, but you can't relax anywhere outside the safe zones.

Quite laggy in the water-filled areas, but OK elsewhere. Go north to the Fun Fair to fight vast hordes of enemies on solid ground.

Dense jungle and some run-down military installations. Much work has obviously been spent on the scenery. This gives the place a consistent feel and makes it fun to explore.

Unfortunately the textures are mostly very dark, which makes the environment hard to see, even in full daylight. At least on my screen.

-
 
+
-
Plenty of quests but somewhat slow on the zombie action. Many of the quests are quite hard, as you have to find unique items hidden in the greenery.

Going here lands you in a nexus where the sim teleporter sign is sometimes slow to rez.

A very good place to start for beginners.

Covering up would rob me of my super strength.
Covering up would rob me of my super strength.

Written by Aryel Magnifico


These are my current favorite places for Zombie Hunting in Second Life. All of them use the Grim Combat System, a.k.a. GCS.


Since my preferred action attire is less than decent, I have only listed zones allowing nudity.


Many of these places don't get the traffic they deserve. Please give them a try!







My Favourites

These are the places I visit whenever I log on.

Timed Death Terminal

...

Butchers Hollow

Market Street, Butchers Hollow
Market Street, Butchers Hollow

Awesome zombie action for all levels of player, newb to expert.

Dozens of fun repeatable quests. (last count: 35+).

Zombie spawn placement is excellent. The action intensity depends on where you go and you never risk becoming bored by too little action, nor tired from too much.

This is definitely a good place to start out for new players. It's also a great place for expert players to farm XP :).


1 full sim. 1 level + some smaller skyboxes - Windy Bay - Adult
