A HUGE WAVE OF ZOMBIES IS APPROACHING!
This subject currently has no proper strategy associated with it. If you have figured out a good strategy, please add it or the zombies will eat your brains!
It is named after Area 51, a highly classified remote detachment of Edwards Air Force Base, within the Nevada Test and Training Range.
Its description references the many conspiracy theories surrounding Area 51, most being about aliens. Also, "22" might be a reference about how it is zombie-related, seeing the letter "Z" and the number "2" looks somewhat similiar.

Strategies
With
This environment can allow any zombie to get a medium stat boost along with the Frenzy trait. This can be effective with Zoo decks as you can give Cat Lady, Zookeeper, or another pet zombie more health, more attack power, and the Frenzy trait to destroy lower level plants with team-up and a chance to damage the Plant hero.
Because this environment gives the Frenzy trait, it's not recommended to use it on zombies that already has Frenzy itself as it only gives a stat boost and generally turns weaker than using Vitamin Z. In fact, avoid using this environment on Gargantuar decks as most Gargantuars already has Frenzy.
Against
If you see a zombie and 3 brains have been conserved by a Beastly Hero, be careful of playing weak plants as this environment can allow a zombie to grow stronger and pierce through your defenses easily, thus wasting most of your cards. When this occurs, try to destroy that zombie if you can or play brute force against the Zombie hero to make them think twice of using this environment.
You can generally remove this environment playing any cheap plant environments like Coffee Grounds or Mushroom Grotto.
