MDickie’s games are always unique experiences and Extra Lives Zombie Survival is no different. Let’s jump right into our Extra Lives Zombie Survival cheats, tips and tricks strategy guide!

Find the Grocery store!

If you’re having trouble with keeping your stomach happy and full, why not pay a visit to Chinatown? Chinatown is located in the south eastern region of the city, and there’s actually a grocery store you can enter here.

Upon your first visit you’ll find a ton of food in the grocery store, so help yourself! Even better is that it’s usually safe – depending on how far the infection has progressed, in most cases you won’t find any zombies in here.

Equip yourself before you fight!

Engaging a zombie with just your barefists is just asking to get bitten! Look around the city to find a weapon of some sort – you shouldn’t have to look for long, because just about anything in the world that you can pick up can be used offensively in some way.

Just a simple stick to beat zombies with is better than trying to punch them. Even if you’re equipped with a weapon, try to keep your distance. Don’t just stand in one spot and swing away – be sure to space yourself. Zombies have a nasty habit of shrugging off your attacks and going for a grab.

Find a backpack!

If you can find a backpack, it might come in handy. Backpacks can be used to store an item so that you can use it for later. Like other MDickie games, it’s a bit of a journey to do this. First, you have to find backpack.

Next, you’ll need to combine the item you want to store in the backpack with it. Then, with the backpack still in your hands, use the interact command (both blue and red buttons pressed at the same time) and you’ll put the backpack on.

While crafting seems to still exist in this game, we couldn’t find the materials you need for the backpack, so we recommend just exploring around for it. Don’t sweat it if you can’t find on. As useful as they are, they’re not really required for surviving.

Make some friends!

Friends are always great in the zombie apocalypse! If you see humans walking around, try approaching them. Most of the time they’ll just say something about the zombies to you, and that’s it.

Other times you might make friends with them, and they’ll come to your aid if you’re attacked when they’re around. Be careful though! Just like the other MDickie games, allegiances are fragile and it’s very, VERY easy to accidentally hit people you didn’t mean to. This can make and break friendships, so be careful with weapons.

Go to the Police Station!

One of the first stops you should make is the Police Station. While there is almost mayhem guaranteed, there are some really good weapons in here. You can find grenades, rocket launchers, assault rifles, flamethrowers, and more in the station. Just be sure to go early so that other humans and zombies don’t make a mess of the place and steal the weapons in the process.
