Welcome to Lost in Localization!
Game Translations and censorship can be weird. We will explore some of the choices made by localization teams when games cross boarders. Note that this game released before the inception of the ESRB and PEGI groups. Through the ESRB has retroactively rated ZAMN, the PEGI has not. I too the liberty of choosing what I believe may have been their best fit answer.
Blend the cheese and camp of B-Movie horror movies, the top down co-op survival shooter and Contra with the rock-scissors-paper of Pokemon and you get a cult classic.
Zombies Ate My Neighbors! Released on the SNES and Sega Genesis, both the US and EU regions, but sadly never officially Japan.
