Zombies Ate my Neighbors - CoconutCommander - 27th August 2005
This was/is a great game. A definite recommendation for horror-movie fans (not to be confused with "horrible" movies like Scream, the Ring, and that other Japanese import not worth remembering).
Each level is themed with a different camp-flick in mind and half the fun of this game is picking out the references. The objective of each level is to reach the victims before the monsters do. Once you have found and rescued the designated number of victims a doorway will open and you can proceed to the next stage. Fortunately you are able to equip yourself with anything from your standard issue squirtgun, to tomatoes, to plates and silverware, to weedwhackers, to popsicles, to bazookas, to odd potions that give your character, Zeke, incredible abilities.
This game starts out simple enough but as you progress the levels get increasingly harder. With 48 levels and 7 bonus levels, you can be sure you will get a few years logged into this game before you can declare yourself victorious, no joke. This is a very addictive game and very replayable.
The CoconutCommander gives Zombies Ate My Neighbors a 10/10.
Zombies Ate my Neighbors - A Black Falcon - 28th August 2005
Console Lucasarts was never quite as great as PC Lucasarts, but as Zombies Ate my Neighbors shows, they had their hits too...
