HOW TO FIGHT AND SURVIVE
In They Are Coming, before each Defense Mode attack, you need to visit the Administrator's shop and spend cash earned from zombie defeat. Purchase firearms, ammunition, armor, barricades, and automated traps to strengthen your perimeter. Wooden obstacles and reinforced walls protect the entrance, while turrets and ground traps slow approaching enemies. During combat, aim for headshots and switch between shotguns, rifles, grenades, axes, and chainsaws. Unarmed kicks also push nearby zombies away. Each day brings tougher waves, and a breached defense ends your run.
Experiment in Sandbox Mode
Playground Mode of They Are Coming removes campaign restrictions and lets you spawn unlocked weapon classes, structures, and zombie types. Test barricade layouts or stage custom battles without risking your survival record.
