Zombies Ate My Neighbors for Genesis
Review #4701
Zombies Ate My Neighbors
Maniac Mansion meets Resident Evil
Gameplay
Unique weapons but too many to keep straight in your head esp when some are nearly useless
Cycle through weapons is impossible while enemies are attacking
Infinitely spawning bad guys
Really, really, really wish it was twin-stick
No knockback + swarming enemies means a lot of deathlocks
Inclusion of a permanent radar on the side, along with health bars and ammo counts, makes the Genesis release the best to play through.
Level Design
Typical collect everything and the exit will open design pattern
Labyrinthine levels
Some fun elements like hedges you can chainsaw through but honestly pretty standard stuff
Episodic levels with fun settings
Theme
Fun setting, like Maniac Mansion meets Resident Evil
Art Style
Beautiful graphics and animation, albeit with less vibrant colors than the SNES version.
Distinctive art style.
Still good but not as good as the SNES version.
Audio
Fun music that doesn't sound as good as the SNES version.
Major downgrade on sound effects.
