Monster Mash Overview
Monster Mash was one of those games you'd find in the late 2000s, tucked away on a Flash game portal. It belonged to that era of simple, single-screen shooters made for a quick break. The premise was straightforward: a town was overrun, and you were the one sent to deal with it.
You control a lone character standing at the bottom of the screen, aiming a shotgun upward at a graveyard. Zombies and other creatures shuffle down from the tombstones, and your job is to blast them before they reach you. The mouse directs your aim and clicking fires. You manage a limited supply of ammo, reloading when the clip empties. The main objective is to survive wave after wave, with the pace steadily increasing as more monsters appear. It starts calmly but builds to a frantic scramble to pick off targets before they close in. The game feels like a tense, focused stand against a slow but relentless tide.
