About Kill the Zombies
In the gripping world of Kill the Zombies, players find themselves teetering on the precipice of survival amidst a nearly apocalyptic backdrop. The divide between law and utter disorder is razor-thin, and amid this chaos stands a valiant member of an elite fighting unit, ever vigilant and prepared for combat. Armed initially with only her fists and a trusty pistol,
The genre lives on clear feedback on every hit or miss, short, intense rounds and escalating difficulty. Kill the Zombies understands that, and it shows in the first minute of play. Playing it works your pattern recognition and hand-eye coordination, which is a large part of why the "one more round" feeling is so strong.

Tips and tricks
- Watch the edges of the screen, not just your character. New threats almost always enter from the sides or the top, and spotting them early gives you a full second of extra time.
- If there is a dash, jump or dodge move, treat it as a resource: use it to escape, not to attack, until you know the level.
- Sound is a cue. Many action games telegraph attacks with an audio effect a moment before the visual one — play with sound on when you are learning.
- Learn the enemy or obstacle patterns before you try to go fast — most action games repeat a handful of behaviours, and once you recognise them the game slows down in your head.
- Because this is a Mobile game, turn on rotation lock so the screen does not flip mid-game.
