Ace Gamez: Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys Review

Ace Gamez writes: "It's got to be a hard unlife, being a zombie. They just want to live and let live, sort of; apart from eating the occasional brain, there's really no harm in them. For three teenage zombies - Lori "Lefty" Lopez, Finnigan "Fins" Magee and Zack "Half-Pipe" Boyd - the time has finally come to redress the balance - to show the world that zombies can have a part to play in a well-formed society. Indeed, now that the alien brain thingys have invaded, this intrepid band of three freshly-dead teens is perhaps our only hope.

Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys, as you may have already gathered, is something of a silly game. You control the three zombies, each of which has different strengths and weaknesses, and you must fight your way up through various platform-based levels until you eventually reach the aliens' mothership and the final confrontation with the big-brained boss. Along the way you'll kill and consume a large number of alien brain thingys, which boost your energy levels and keep you fighting fit (should that be unfit, given that these characters are zombies?), solve large numbers of puzzles and laugh out loud at some of the fifties B-movie humour that is prevalent throughout."

VGGEN Review: Teenage Zombies: Invasion of the Alien Brain Thingys

VGGEN: "OK, someone out there must have really loved 1985's Return of the Living Dead.

I remember being singularly unimpressed by the mid-80's comedy-horror hybrid (which spawned similar genre bastardizations such as the immortal "C.H.U.D. 2: Bud the C.H.U.D"), but unlike most kids weaned on crappy 80's slasher flicks, I never felt this particular mélange was meant to gel. Comedy is comedy, horror is horror, and never the twain should meet."

2Bits: Zombies simply misunderstood members of circle of life

From the article: " Zombies get a bad rap. The majority of them just can't help their innate, ravenous urges. I'm sure if they had a choice in the manner, we'd see quite a few vegetarian, or even vegan, members of the Undead. You don't get mad at lions for chasing cute zebras, or vultures from scavenging off the zebras' carcass once the lions are done.

Quite a few video games even portray some more rational zombies. So since not all zombies are evil, we shouldn't instantly condemn or fear them. Zombies are simply a part of the circle of life, and we should accept the good along with bad. Besides, if someone isn't able to outwit/outrun a zombie, then maybe that person deserves to get eaten."
