About Zombie Rush
Positioning is the whole game. Your survivor fires automatically, so the input you give is direction, and the terrain does the rest. Trees break up the open ground, and using them to split an approaching group is the difference between a clean escape and being surrounded.
Waves escalate in a way you can feel rather than read. Early undead shamble in a straight line and are easy to outpace. Later ones close faster and arrive from angles that punish a lazy circling pattern. The 2D top-down view keeps everything legible even when the screen is crowded, and the clean art style helps you pick out what is about to reach you.
How to play
Keep moving, keep the horde behind you, and survive as long as the waves allow. There is no reload to manage or weapon to select, which puts all the pressure on route choice. Circling wide works early, but once the horde thickens you need the trees to buy space.
Controls
- Mouse: hold the left button and drag, and the survivor moves towards the cursor
- Keyboard: WASD or the arrow keys for direct eight-way movement
- Touch: press anywhere and drag a finger to lead the runner
- The layout adapts to portrait or landscape on a phone without any manual switching
Tips
- Never run a straight line into open ground. A wide arc lets your automatic fire thin the front of the pack.
- Trees are cover and a filter. Cutting close to one forces the horde into single file.
- Turn early. By the time a fast zombie is on top of you, the angle to escape has already gone.
