Zombies Ate My Neighbors is one of the great LucasArts games of the ’90s. Here’s why it deserves a sequel… And how would you save them all? By using a homemade arsenal of water guns, soda cans, and fire extinguishers, of course! Sadly, the series died withGhoul Patrolin 1994. I dont think so, especially not in todays gaming environment.

Some big name talent contributed to cover art, too, such as H.R. Giger (the man who designed the look of Alien) and sci-fi artist Richard Clifton-Dey. We just dont get work like this on cover art anymore. First things first: this is not a good game. Its not even so bad that its good and worth spending a few minutes watching on YouTube.
