Ghoul Patrol takes all of the frustrations of Zombies Ate My Neighbors and ramps them up to eleven, but retains very little of its predecessor’s nostalgic charm. All in all, a fun trip down memory lane, but not a great one. The co-op here is great, though it would have been better with split-screen (which sadly wasn’t possible due to hardware limitations at the time of this game’s original release). Zombies Ate My Neighbors is a delightful, nostalgic trip through a pastiche of great movie monster tropes, and the gameplay is nicely varied, but the labyrinthine level designs and somewhat clunky controls make this game frustrating at times, as does it relatively high difficulty and at times seemingly unavoidable hazards. Here is what I thought of each of the games in this collection: Game Both of these games cast players as teegagers Zeke and Julie as they fight off hordes of various classic (and imaginative) movie monsters while rescuing hapless neighbors. Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Ghoul Patrol is a Compilation of the two titular Top-Down Action games, the former released in 1993 on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis, and the latter released in 1994 for the Super Nintendo.
