Play Zombie High (Proto) Online

Zombie High (Proto) for SEGA Genesis – because nothing says "school spirit" like smashing undead jocks with a fire extinguisher. This lost prototype feels like someone mashed up River City Ransom with a B-movie horror flick, and honestly? It works.

You start in some grim pixelated hallway, locker doors swinging open to reveal... yeah, that's definitely your math teacher groaning and lurching toward you. The controls are that perfect Genesis mix of chunky and responsive—you can tell the devs played a lot of Streets of Rage before making this. Weirdest part? The cafeteria level where the zombie lunch lady chucks meatloaf at you. Classic '90s nonsense.

Soundtrack's all screechy synths and drum machines, like if John Carpenter scored a pep rally. Found myself humming the gym theme for days. Not gonna lie, the hit detection's a little janky (zombie cheerleaders somehow have longer reach than they should), but that just adds to the charm. If you've got a soft spot for games that should've been rentals at your local video store in 1993, this one's a blast.

Just watch out for the principal—dude's got a mean overhead projector attack.
