Slap a Zombie Bestiary

Knowing your enemy is half the battle. Slap a Zombie throws a growing variety of undead at you, from slow shamblers to fast runners and dangerous special types that can overwhelm an unprepared team.

This bestiary breaks down each zombie type, how it behaves, and the threat it poses so you can prioritise targets and survive deeper into the run.

Bestiary

Threat level reflects how dangerous each enemy is in a crowded wave. Always deal with high-threat zombies first.

Walker

Low

Slow movement, low health, appears from wave 1

Runner

Medium

Fast sprint, moderate health, appears from wave 3

Tank

High

Heavy health, slow but hard to knock off the map

Spitter

Medium

Ranged acid attack that reduces your slap range temporarily

Exploder

High

Detonates on death, damaging nearby players

Boss Zombies

Boss zombies appear at milestone waves and have far more health than regular enemies. They often hit harder and can summon or buff smaller zombies.

Use a high-knockback glove to keep the boss away from the edge of the map, focus your slaps, and avoid getting cornered while the rest of the horde closes in.

Waves & Survival

Waves scale in size and speed the longer you survive. Each cleared wave rewards cash, so the further you go the faster you can upgrade.

Position near the edge of the map to slap zombies off cleanly, keep moving so you are never surrounded, and play with friends to share the load and earn the friend cash bonus.
