what is it you want, exactly? Because you could use Straight-up AW, including Zombies as part of the apocalypse and preparing a couple of custom moves for that. That would, obviously, still be AW, with the same books and moves.
Obviously, it would be different from a typical zombie movie, or from things such as The Walking Dead. but it would indeed be a zombie apocalypse.
Look for End of the World somewhere in this community. A cool hybrid of Chronica Feudalis and Apocalypse World that I’d use for any and every low-power, high-authenticity survival game.
I’m looking for something to emulate The Walking Dead, or World War Z. Apocalypse World as it is feels more like Fallout/Mad Max to me, and I was wondering, what with all the crazy love zombies get these days, if anyone has made a hack emphasizing the themes and ideas found in those particular kinds of apocalypses.
Yeah, you want End of the World. 🙂 I’ll see if I an rustle up a link.
Solum caeca ferocia written by Luca Ricci but it’s still in playtest I guess. It’s a hack of Sine Requie .
Also, Solum Caeca Ferocia is written to replicate the feeling and setting of Sine Requie, an Italian RPG which has not received an english translation, and, while it is well-grounded in Zombie fiction, with a gritty and desperate Zombie-Apocalypse world, it also has references to that setting that might confuse somebody who doesn’t know it, such as… What’s a Templar doing in a zombie-infested world?
I think you can do a lot to made AW more broadly applicable simply by removing the Weird stat and any moves/rules that use Weird. You also want to delete all PC stat lines with nonzero Weird. (Yes, this does delete some splats.)
If you have a little bit of patience we are working on it. Playtest started last week 🙂 Good old Walking Dead feeling is the main inspiration 🙂
Okay, hey Eddie Gibbs here’s the thing I was looking for!

It’s +Michael Wight ‘s (I’m having trouble tagging him, if someone can help get his attention for me).
I really think this is the game you’re looking for, Eddie.
This looks PERFECT! I can’t seem to download it, though. Is it not shareable?
It should be downloadedable. I know I downloaded it, at least.
I know a thing that will be PERFECT for that WWZ itch.Epidiah Ravachol, are you listening? Hmm?
Typing on it as we speak (although technically we’re not speaking at the moment, and really I’m typing on G+, but you get the drift).
Probably not helpful, but I am planning on running an AW one-shot set ~50 years post zombie apocalypse. That is everyone basically knows how to deal w/ the few remaining zombies. Was planning on using the Walking Dead conceit that everyone is infected and turns when they die, so generally if you kill someone, you have to immediately kill them again, ideally before they turn.
Let’s be honest though, Walking Dead is barely about zombies at all anymore…
No good zombie fiction is about zombies… ever.
Dead Weight! Zombies plus Parkour. mic drop

i am working on an AW hack based on a recent drop of the human population to near-extinction levels due to an outside invader. I’m leaving the invader open to the whims of the MC and players. So it could be zombies, or it could be martians or robots or whatever. It’s all the same really, since the focus is more on the characters’ relationships.
Someone said they could not download the “End of the World” pdf. Here is the link to do so : https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5K_Bqfr0dqcWDQtMVhYX1dkWEE/edit
That was me and this did the trick. Thanks alot!
