How to unlock the Zombies! achievement in Aven Colony - Definitive Guide
When you first encounter Plague Spores, they will either be flying towards your colony or picked up by your expedition vessel.
For this achievement to work, you need to recycle your Hospital, if you have built one, and have no active Plasma Turrets.
In the case you didn’t get the achievements during the campaign playthrough, you can still get it fairly easy.
Start a new campaign mission and set the difficulty to “Insane”. It doesn’t matter which mission you choose, but you need to produce a lot of nanites. Kelori Strand worked best for me.
Build an expedition vessel as fast as you’re able and don’t put any extra workers in the building. As soon as the vessel is idle, go to the expedition map and look for a “plague spore” mission. Send your vessel to destroy it. The vessel will return having failed its mission and with sick crew members. Remember not to built a hospital, fast forward the time to 8x Speed and the achievements will pop shortly thereafter.

When colonists get infected they will be listed as "sick" within the Colony Control panel. Make sure you disable Plague Vaccine distribution from all Hospitals so the illness will spread quickly. You can always save and reload after achieving this trophy. A Plague can only start, once either Plague Spores attack and aren't destroyed or when an infected expedition returns from destroying a Plague Spore nest.

Just don't build hospitals or produce a vaccine when the blight infects a large colony. The main thing is then just restart the game.
