Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Review by Retro Despair
"Kid Chameleon killer"
Preview
I haven't played this game in a long time so I'll try to remember what I can.For all I know,two teenagers venture through levels to put a stop to mad scientist's creations.Why do I love this game more then Kid Chameleon?Hell yeah Kid Chameleon is a great game but too wacky insane.I needed a game that would feed my monster mashing appetite.I didn't want a game that would make you lose all your lives in the tenth level man.I wanted a game that had mass destruction,huge babies that destroy cities,I also wanted to kill werewolves in tourists in disguise.I wanted to kill zombies with bazookas,kill everything with a football,eliminate blobs with plates and forks,and the whole shiznit.So you don't like that I love this game more then Kid Chameleon?Too bad!!!Read on suckah!!!
Story
It's no Metal Gear Solid(that's pretty obvious).And there is no cut scenes at all through the game.But the thing is,you'll have so much fun from squirting your water gun,smashing things as a monster,using your holy box,fighting giant ants,destroying UFOs',killing werewolves,you won't even notice.
Gameplay
The game is third person arcade style shoot em' up.There are no saves.Only passwords.You can also play with your friend in two player mode.
To finish a level,you must save all the victims in the game.If they all die,the game will automatically be over.The more victims you have,the more longer the level your in will be.But you'll have less chances of losing.
Graphics
The graphics are great.Ants look terrifying.Werewolves look vicious.And spiders look creepy as they should be.
F.U.N
Man it's sweet to blow up werewolves,kill vampires,destroy huge worms,every monster in horror flick history is here for the party.A great party.Oh yeah,play with a friend.You'll a blast!
Challenge
The challenge might bog you down a bit.But it makes the game more fun and unique as you get farther into the game.The game gets very insane near the end.So have fun!!
Controls
The controls are decent and easy to get used to.You'll have no problem switching weapons during gameplay.
Replay
There isn't much reason to play the game madly over and over again.But there are dozens of secret levels.So many,that there is a secret level in the first level.But if you haven't beaten the game with a friend,do so.You'll have more fun then before.
In the end...
The game is superfine.The story is bleak and the challenge might be upsetting.But the secrets in the game are very fun,as well as the rest of the game.It might not be a sleeper hit but great none the less.
