《死亡復甦 殭屍祭品》（英文名：Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop，日文原名：デッドライジング ゾンビのいけにえ）是由Capcom開發，於2009年在Wii平台推出的動作生存遊戲。改編自2006年Xbox 360平台的知名作品《Dead Rising》，但並非單純移植，而是針對Wii的硬體特性進行大幅度的調整與重構，整體風格從原作的開放世界生存挑戰，轉變為更強調任務導向與射擊動作的設計。

在劇情方面，大致沿用原作設定，講述自由攝影記者法蘭克・威斯特（Frank West）為追尋新聞線索，闖入被殭屍佔領的科羅拉多州小鎮威拉梅特（Willamette），並被困在一座大型購物中心中，必須在殭屍橫行的絕望環境中生存下來，同時揭開背後陰謀的故事。雖然基本劇情主線未變，但由於系統與關卡結構的調整，在敘事節奏上更加線性，刪除原作中大量自由探索與時間管理的要素，改以一個個分階段、目標明確的任務來推動劇情發展，並簡化部分支線角色與故事細節。

在操作與玩法方面，使用Wii Remote進行瞄準與射擊，Nunchuk則負責角色移動與基本操作。相較於原作主要以近戰與即時探索為主，更強調射擊戰鬥，並從Capcom的Wii遊戲《惡靈古堡4 Wii版》借鑑大量射擊操作機制，例如自動瞄準輔助系統、大量使用槍械對抗殭屍，以及更加強調以遠距離攻擊作為主要生存手段。

此外，由於Wii硬體性能限制，購物中心的規模被大幅縮小，場景細節與NPC數量也有所減少，但開發團隊試圖透過更密集的殭屍分佈與新的敵人設計（例如飛行殭屍犬與變異型殭屍）來補足整體戰鬥的緊張感。使用各式各樣的武器，包括槍械、棒球棍、刀具等，且依然保留部分原作中趣味性的「隨手拿起道具當武器」的特色，只是使用範圍與道具種類明顯簡化。

關卡設計上，採用任務制，每次接到任務後會被引導到特定地點，完成救援、消滅敵人、回收物資等目標。與原版不同的是，取消自由式的72小時生存模式，而改以分階段開放新的區域與劇情任務，讓節奏更加緊湊，適合Wii平台上以短時間遊玩為主的設計理念。此外，遊戲還新增射擊訓練模式、Boss挑戰模式等額外內容，可以在主線之外進行不同形式的挑戰。

在視覺表現方面，雖然因Wii性能限制，畫質、人物建模與場景細節皆有所簡化，但整體氛圍仍然努力重現原作的末日感與混亂感。角色動作流暢，殭屍數量雖然比原版少，但因空間縮小而感受上更為密集，營造出一種被包圍的緊張感。音效方面，槍聲、打擊聲與殭屍咆哮聲搭配得宜，背景音樂則多以低調緊張的旋律強化了生存壓力感，整體氣氛依然令人投入。

市場評價方面，在發售時獲得褒貶不一的回應。正面評價多集中在體感操作帶來的新鮮感，特別是射擊系統流暢、容易上手，對於當時剛擁有Wii主機、希望體驗動作生存類型的玩家來說，是不錯的選擇。部分玩家也認為，儘管內容有所刪減，但以Wii的規格而言，仍然成功保留原作系列的基本精神與樂趣，尤其是對於沒有Xbox 360主機、第一次接觸《死亡復甦》系列的玩家來說，是合適的入門之作。

然而，批評的聲音同樣不少。原作粉絲普遍認為本作刪減過多內容，失去原作最引以為傲的開放式探索、自由度與時間壓力帶來的緊張感，使得整體體驗顯得線性且缺乏深度。此外，畫質退步、場景簡化、敵人種類減少、AI表現普通，也成為不少玩家抱怨的焦點。特別是對於熟悉原版的玩家而言，在系統設計上的退讓與簡化無可避免地造成失望感。

總體來說，《死亡復甦 殭屍祭品》是針對Wii特性重新構築的作品，雖然失去一些原作的複雜性與自由度，但作為以體感操作為主打、節奏較快的殭屍生存射擊遊戲，依然有其娛樂價值。特別適合想要輕鬆體驗動作生存類型、又希望用Wii來享受射擊快感的玩家。如果能抱持著這是「重新想像版」而非「完全重現版」的心態來遊玩，會更容易感受到它的樂趣。

Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop (Japanese title: デッドライジング ゾンビのいけにえ) is an action survival game developed by Capcom, released for the Wii platform in 2009. It is adapted from the acclaimed 2006 Xbox 360 title Dead Rising, but rather than a straightforward port, it underwent significant adjustments and reconstruction to fit the Wii’s hardware capabilities. The overall style shifts from the original's open-world survival challenge to a more mission-driven, action-shooter design.

In terms of story, it largely retains the original setup: freelance photojournalist Frank West ventures into the zombie-infested town of Willamette, Colorado in pursuit of a news scoop, only to become trapped inside a massive shopping mall. He must survive in this desperate environment while uncovering the conspiracy behind the outbreak. While the basic plotline remains intact, the game’s revised system and stage structure result in a more linear narrative flow. The free exploration and time management elements that characterized the original have been largely removed, replaced with a series of clear, stage-based missions that advance the story. Many side characters and subplots have also been simplified.

In terms of gameplay and controls, players use the Wii Remote for aiming and shooting, while the Nunchuk handles character movement and basic operations. Compared to the original, which emphasized melee combat and real-time exploration, this version focuses much more heavily on shooting combat, borrowing many mechanics from Capcom’s successful Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition. These include features like aim-assist targeting, heavy reliance on firearms to battle zombies, and an overall shift towards ranged combat as the primary survival strategy.

Due to the Wii’s hardware limitations, the size of the shopping mall has been significantly scaled down, with reduced scene detail and fewer NPCs. However, the development team tried to compensate by increasing zombie density and introducing new enemy types, such as flying zombie dogs and mutated zombies, to maintain the tension and action feel. Players can wield a variety of weapons — guns, baseball bats, knives, and more — and the series’ hallmark feature of using everyday objects as improvised weapons remains, though the range and variety of items have been noticeably simplified.

Level design follows a mission-based structure: each mission guides players to specific locations to accomplish objectives like rescues, enemy eliminations, or supply retrieval. Unlike the original’s open-ended 72-hour survival mode, this version gradually unlocks new areas and story missions in stages, creating a tighter, faster-paced progression more suited to the Wii’s quick-play philosophy. Additional content such as shooting training modes and boss challenge modes has been added, offering extra gameplay outside of the main story.

Visually, while the graphics, character models, and scene details are understandably simplified due to the Wii's limitations, the game still works hard to recreate the apocalyptic and chaotic atmosphere of the original. Character animations are smooth, and although there are fewer zombies compared to the Xbox 360 version, the smaller environments make encounters feel more intensely crowded, heightening the sense of being overwhelmed. Sound design is effective, with gunshots, melee impacts, and zombie growls well-synced, while the background music relies on low, tense melodies to reinforce the survival horror mood.

Upon release, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop received mixed reviews. Positive feedback often centered on the novelty of the motion controls, particularly the smooth, accessible shooting mechanics. For players who had just acquired a Wii and wanted to experience action-survival gameplay, it was seen as a good entry point. Some players felt that, despite the cuts, the game managed to preserve the core spirit and fun of the Dead Rising series, especially for newcomers without access to an Xbox 360.

However, criticisms were also plentiful. Fans of the original lamented the extensive content cuts, noting that the loss of open-world exploration, player freedom, and time-pressure survival removed much of what made the original so compelling. Other points of dissatisfaction included downgraded graphics, simplified environments, fewer enemy types, and basic AI behavior. For those familiar with the Xbox 360 version, the compromises and simplifications were hard to overlook and led to significant disappointment.

Overall, Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop is a reimagined version of the original game, rebuilt around the Wii’s strengths and motion controls. While it loses some of the original’s complexity and freedom, it still offers entertaining zombie survival shooter gameplay with a faster pace and more accessible design. It is especially suited for players who want a more casual action-survival experience and who are interested in enjoying shooting mechanics on the Wii. Approaching it as a reinterpretation rather than a faithful recreation makes it much easier to appreciate the fun it has to offer.
