Zombies Ate My Neighbors (USA) ROM

A classic tale of two youthes struggling against an endless horde of zombies, aliens, werewolves, matango, chainsaw maniacs, and, of course, gigantic killer babies.  Load up on tomatoes and shake that soda pop, because it's time to save your oblivious neighbors from the zombie apocalypse!
In Zombies Ate My Neighbors, you control one of two selectable characters to fight through hordes of enemies and eventually face off with the menacing Dr. Tongue.  In each level you must rescue your neighbors, who seem oddly oblivious to all of the horrors and chaos around them, while simultaniously exploring the area to locate secrets and extra weapons.  It's a relatively simple concept, but well executed resulting in an entertaining romp through the annals of B-movie history.  A player begins with ten neighbors to rescue; if a neighbor is killed in a level, they will not return for a few levels.  If all of your neighbors are killed, it's game over.
To aid you in your quest is a plethora of weapons useful for dispatching your fiendish foes.  Some are obvious, such as silverware against werewolves and explosive cans of soda pop against burrowing worm creatures, but others are only obvious in hindsight; as an aside, martians are allergic to tomatoes.  With so many items and enemies facing you, it's fortunate that a second player can join in to help dispense squirtgun justice.
All in all, an enjoyable experience for two.
