Box Head - More Rooms Overview
Box Head: More Rooms was one of those games you'd find during the Flash era, a time when simple concepts could fill an afternoon. It arrived as an expanded version of the original Box Head, offering more space to survive in. The game didn't need complex graphics or a deep story; its appeal was in its straightforward, frantic action.
You control a small character from a top-down view, moving with the arrow keys through a maze of rooms. The goal is to survive wave after wave of zombies, which appear as shuffling, pixelated figures. You shoot them using the spacebar, and a key mechanic is the weapon selection system, accessed by pressing number keys. Killing zombies in quick succession allows you to upgrade your weapon, turning a simple pistol into something more powerful. The pacing is relentless, with zombies breaking through walls to reach you, forcing constant movement and strategic positioning. It feels like a tense, chaotic scramble where every cleared room brings a brief moment of relief before the next onslaught begins.
