Ben and Ed is a downloadable 3D computer platform game. During the game, we play the character of Ed the zombie. Here we find 23 obstacle courses that are built with extremely dangerous machines and obstacles on the way. The obstacle course is deadly to humans because machines amputate limbs, but for Ed the zombie they just limit his ability to move.

The Storyline
Ed was once a very good runner – he proved his ability by winning a silver medal at the Candy Fun Marathon. But just a moment later, just after receiving the great prize, Ed died of a heart attack. No one knew the reason for his sudden death. But after his death, when a few days passed, he was alive again. And to be more exact half-alive, as he became a zombie who had been wandering around the world for a long time, having no real purpose. The poor Ed finally met a little boy from the neighborhood – Ben. Surprisingly, the boy was not terrified of seeing Ed. What’s more, he took care of the poor ex-runner – Ben would feed him with the meat of dead animals. They would both spend quality time together.
However, this wonderful friendship is now put to a test by Hans Showmaster. This man is a very successful businessman because he is the creator of entertainment shows on television. When the news about Ed reaches him, he decides to make money on the zombie. Hans Showmaster kidnaps Ben, and Ed is forced to go through a very dangerous and difficult obstacle course, because only in this way will he be able to release his new friend. Of course, everything is on TV. We can’t help but think of the similar theme of a TV show in Neighbours Out of Hell Games.
The Gameplay
The hazardous courses that constitute the gameplay are extremely diverse, full of all sorts of obstacles and traps, such as hammers, big blades, laser rays, acid puddles clouds, and even chickens or dog food. For ordinary people, a large part of these obstacles is a deadly threat already in the first contact. Fortunately, Ed, being a living corpse, has a much better chance of survival. For him to lose a leg or a hand is a handicap, but not a death sentence. At the same time, the player has new possibilities or ways to overcome obstacles or solve puzzles. For example, throwing your own head can help open a door to a hidden place.
