Getting started: the first things to do
Step
In short
Finishing the tutorial and jumping into your first battle is the fastest way to understand how the game works.
When you load in for the first time, work through the tutorial before anything else — it teaches you the controls and explains how battles run. Once that is done, pick a character that looks interesting to you and jump into a fight. Losing your first battle is fine; the goal is to get a feel for how combat flows and see how much XP you earn afterward.
- Complete the tutorial it walks you through the controls and the basic rules of arena combat.
- Choose your first character pick whoever looks fun, since you can always switch later.
- Enter a battle focus on watching what the zombies do rather than trying to win right away.
- Check your XP after the fight knowing how much you earn per battle helps you plan what to unlock next.
02
Character types and how to choose
TableIn short
Matching your character type to the way you like to fight makes battles much easier.
All 66 characters have different abilities, so the best one for you depends on how you want to play. Try a few types as you unlock them to find what clicks.
| Power type | high damage against single targets, strongest up close. |
| Range type | attacks from a distance, letting you stay safer during fights. |
| Area type | hits multiple zombies at once, useful when enemies crowd together. |
| Speed type | moves and attacks quickly, making it easier to dodge incoming hits. |
| Defense type | reduces damage taken, a forgiving option when you are still learning. |

Earning XP faster in battles
TipsIn short
Learning enemy attack patterns and using your character's ability at the right moment is the core of earning XP efficiently.
XP comes from fighting zombies, so the more battles you complete the faster you progress.
Tips worth knowing
- Watch how zombies attack and memorize their patterns — dodging consistently keeps you in the fight longer.
- Practice the timing of your character's unique ability so you use it when it will hit the most enemies.
- Stick to battles you are comfortable with rather than constantly trying harder ones you keep losing.
- Replay the same map a few times in a row — familiarity with enemy spawn patterns makes each run smoother.

06
What to do when you are stuck
WarnIn short
Switching characters and farming easier battles are the two most reliable ways out of a losing streak.
Getting stuck in a loop of losses on the same battle is frustrating. Step back and change something instead.
Worth watching out for
Switch to a different character if you keep losing the same fight
a different ability set can turn the result around.
Farm a battle you can consistently win to build up XP, then come back to the hard one once you have unlocked something stronger.
If your device's controls feel awkward, try playing on a different platform.
Double-check when you are triggering your ability
using it at the wrong moment leaves you open to hits.

Common questions
FAQWhich character should I pick first?
Pick whichever looks most interesting to you. You can switch to a different character any time, so the choice is never permanent.
Can I unlock all 66 characters without spending Robux?
Yes. Every character and ability in the game unlocks with XP earned from battles. It takes time, but consistent play gets you there.
I keep losing the same battle — what should I try?
Switch to a character with a different ability type and see if that changes the outcome. If you are still struggling, move to a battle you can win reliably, farm XP there until you can unlock something new, and then return to the difficult fight.

The game has more characters and updates on the way. You can check for announcements directly inside the game.
