The Zombie Slayers

The Zombie Slayers is a 3D top-down shooter in which you fight zombies, complete missions, survive arena showdowns and dress your characters in ridiculous costumes. You can play solo or team up with friends, bring a baby or hamster pet into the fight, drive around the map and dance during the action.

Game modes

In Survival Stories, you tackle missions and battle zombies with up to six friends or play alone. Friendly fire is enabled. Brutal Zombie Waves challenges you to survive successive waves of zombies, alone or with friends; surviving more waves raises your score on the Steam Leaderboard. The game also includes arena showdowns and ways to compete for a place on the leaderboard.

Characters and companions

You can choose a male or female character and unlock costumes with earned XP, including outfits such as a pirate costume. You can team up with another player to make a baby, who follows you and fights zombies; you need to keep a milk bottle handy. Hamster pets are also mentioned as companions you can show off.

Combat and progression

You earn experience for every kill and advance through the ranks of zombie slayers. More XP unlocks additional options for destroying zombies, while the game gets harder as your XP increases. Your weapons include pistols, rifles, shotguns, flamethrowers, rocket launchers, baseball bats and swords. You can also use turrets, mines, barbed wire and electric cages against the zombies.

Costumes and dances

You can perform dance moves such as the floss and moonwalk on the battlefield or elsewhere. Dressing up and dancing are part of the game's options alongside combat and exploration.
