Enemies

Wild Zombie

The standard zombie shows up in every battle bar one and accounts for over half of all the zombies you’ll face. With 15 health and 4 damage per hit, it can’t touch you in Master Armor. A Rusty Sword needs four swings to drop one; a Heavy Bow needs one arrow.

Buckethead

Bucket on its head, wooden planks strapped to its torso: 35 health, 6 damage per hit. It debuts in the Eastern Districts Purge and appears in nearly every battle after that, frequently by the hundred.

Door Zombie

This one holds a wooden door as a shield, and it targets barricades exclusively, ignoring you, your squads and your towers. It makes for the barricades on its front, spotting them from further away than other zombies notice anything, and hits them for 10 every second. Once no barricade remains, it carries on toward your flags. Spiked Barricades damage it in return.

Arrows, sword swings and pike thrusts that strike the door are all blocked; only body hits count, so work around it. It has 30 health and appears in six battles, the first being the Market Square Purge.

Stinker

Swollen, with 48 health and a 7-damage hit. It explodes on death, dealing 10 damage to you and anything of yours adjacent to it, ignoring armour. The burst also catches your own zombie squads but spares enemy zombies. Kill it with the bow or back off before the final blow. Its first appearance is Central Districts Purge: Part II.

Spitter

A drooling ranged attacker that spits 7 damage every 1.5 seconds from as far as 4.5 away, and it notices you from much further than the melee types do. It has 32 health. Only four battles include Spitters: bout six of the Sewerena, both halves of Closing the Eastern Floodgate, and the Final Battle, which throws 38 at you.

Barrel Zombie

Barrel for a body, frying pan for a hat, and the hardiest of the six at 100 health and 10 damage per hit. Master Armor still lets 6 of each hit through, and a Master Sword takes eight swings to finish it. Its debut is bout five of the Sewerena; in the story it first shows up in Closing the Eastern Floodgate: Part I.

Notes

• Totals are the most a battle can throw at you, not a kill quota. Each front caps how many of its zombies can be on the field at once, the rest queue up, and anything still queued when the timeline ends never arrives.
• Your weapon always hits for full damage. There’s no armour to subtract and no weak points; a hit on a Door Zombie’s door is the only exception.
• Unconfirmed: the size of the Stinker’s burst and of the Door Zombie’s door. The files give the burst damage and the door’s blocking, but neither shape has been measured for this page.
• Two further zombies, one resembling a stump and one a full barrel, have stats in the data but never appear in any battle.
