◄Back to SWAT and Zombies: FAQ, Tips, Tricks and Strategy Guides List
- Tips To Remember While Playing -
Notable SWAT Team Stats:
- Check the Attack Distance of your SWAT members to know where to place
them. All must be doing their job when zombies are attacking, if a SWAT member can't attack or reach a zombie, use the BACK option to relocate him or to recover Coins.
- High HP SWAT members should be placed into your front lines to absorb
damages.
- SWAT's Coins Cost: You start a stage with a fixed number of Coins, and you
can get more free Coins by defeating zombies. For Cash users, you can buy more while defending.
- It is recommended that you summon low cost SWAT members first before summoning the big guns.
Reloading SWAT Units:
- M.A.G Size 0 = Infinite, Doesn't need to Reload.
- M.A.G Size 1 = Needs to Reload every after use.
- M.A.G Size X = Needs to Reload after a number of use.
- It is easier to Reload all SWAT members by constantly using "Swipe" to all
SWAT in-game, instead of using "Tap". You'll be able to monitor their current HP (Brown Bar above their heads) too while doing this.
The BACK Option:
- This is a very handy option that can help you with your strategies.
- For withdrawing a low HP SWAT out of the battle to avoid getting casualties.
- The BACK option will also recover Coins depending on the remaining HP of the
SWAT. This is very useful for summoning a SWAT that you need into the battle.
- If you are sure that a Row doesn't have any enemies left (near end game),
withdraw them all to focus on other rows.
Routine For Defending (Summary):
- Summon Low Cost SWAT members first like Pistols, Sticks, or Shields.
- Earn Coins (dropped by Zombies) to summon other members that you need.
- Use the Back Option when needed.
- Try not to let any SWAT die or at least limit your casualties to 1 or 2 (for some
stages) to get 3 Stars per Stage.
- If you FAIL, do not use Stars!, save all your Stars for upgrades.
