Our take on Nasty Zombies
Its defining structure is the combination of endless zombie waves with movement bonuses: staying mobile increases both firearm power and melee speed while players leap, slide, and air dash.
What is Nasty Zombies?
Nasty Zombies is a wave-based shooter where a Hollow Monk battles recurring undead assaults alone or with up to 8 players.
Movement is central: players can leap, slide, and air dash while a Kinetic Energy system raises firearm power and melee speed during motion. Semi-procedural maps contain hidden secrets, and defeated zombies can drop temporary Miracles. Between runs, money purchases upgrades, while 13 Blessings provide permanent bonuses and 8 Invocations offer selectable abilities. Weapon kills and headshots unlock camos. Players can track statistics, pursue over 100 achievements, and compete in Highest Wave, Fastest Speedruns, and Top Prestige leaderboard categories. Prestige levels increase the number of Blessings that can be equipped.
