Few Super Nintendo games captured chaotic fun quite like Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

Released during the golden era of 16-bit gaming, this SNES classic blended horror themes, arcade-style action, and quirky humour into one unforgettable experience.

In this video, I jump back into Zombies Ate My Neighbors on the Super Nintendo, revisiting one of the most iconic retro action games of the 1990s.

For many retro gamers, Zombies Ate My Neighbors is a must-play SNES title.

The game features:

• Top-down run-and-gun gameplay
• Over 40+ unique levels
• Dozens of horror-inspired enemies
• Creative weapons and power-ups
• Local co-op multiplayer

Unlike modern survival horror games, this one is fast, chaotic, and packed with personality.

It perfectly captures the charm of 16-bit retro gaming.

Gameplay Overview

In this gameplay session, I:

• Navigate through classic SNES levels
• Save neighbours from waves of monsters
• Use classic weapons like water pistols and bazookas
• Try not to lose too many civilians 😅

The difficulty curve in Zombies Ate My Neighbors is no joke — which is part of why it’s remembered as one of the tougher Super Nintendo games.

Even decades later, SNES titles like Zombies Ate My Neighbors still feel:

• Responsive
• Challenging
• Creative
• Replayable

The pixel art style and arcade pacing give it a timeless feel that modern games sometimes struggle to replicate.
