Zany Zombies of "7 Days To Die" Quiz

Answer: He donated a lot to the game

In 2013, before the original version of this game came out, a streamer by the name of Tom Clark pledged $6,000 for the "Undead Head" package, which gave him the privilege of appearing in game. Clark appeared in both the original and remade versions of this game.

Curiously, in the original version, the Tom Clark zombie crawled on all fours. In this game, he stands upright. Fun Pimps has not commented as to why this change occurred. Tom Clark does not have any more health nor does he possess anything other than an aesthetic change compared to a normal zombie. So he is easy to kill.

Answer: Moe

Named zombies are nothing special, aside from the Tom Clark zombie. They were referred to by their species in the original version; Moe was known as simply 'Festering Cadaver' in the original, for example. Joining Moe for zombie names would be Arlene, Marlene, Joe, Steve, Boe, Yo and Darlene.

There is an easter egg in this game, whereupon the Big Mama zombie will always spawn inside of a structure labeled the "Knowbly Cabin." This is an obvious shoutout to "Evil Dead", as the Knowby Cabin in that movie is where the huge, grotesque Henrietta appears. Because of this, fans of this game have affectionately labeled the Big Mama zombie as 'Henrietta', though this is not reflected in game, where she is simply known as 'Big Mama'.

Answer: It increases Infection more than usual

Ordinarily, if a regular zombie attacks a player suffering from Infection, there is a chance it will increase the Infection. But, there is also a chance nothing adverse happens with this status too. For Hazmat Zombies, any hits received while Infected will always cause the Infection to worsen by 0.4%.

This is huge as, even regular zombies could only occasionally raise Infection by 0.1%: Hazmat Zombies have a guaranteed chance to do so, and to do so at a 4x quantity as well.

Answer: Sprint

Unlike regular zombies, Wights are not affected by the day/night cycle of this game. They will act the same regardless of the time of day, prompting them to sprint after the player if they spot them.

Answer: Zombie Tourist

The Zombie Tourist has 450 HP, so it's tanky and tough to take out quickly without armor piercing or hi-powered rounds. Thankfully, it is very slow and has a massive hurtbox, so it's easy to land shots against from a distance.

Fun Pimps themselves has publicly stated the the Well Walker from Season 2 of "The Walking Dead" indeed served as direct inspiration for this zombie.

Answer: Zombie Lumberjack

The Zombie Lumberjack may not appear much at first glance, but it can be a menace to unprepared players. It has more HP than regular zombies, more frequently inflicts Stun with its melee attacks and can cause Bleeding more easily than regular zombies as well.

They are thankfully a step slower than regular zombies, so players with decent guns or bows should be able to handle them. Those forced to resort to melee, however, should keep their head on a swivel.

Answer: Puke/Vomit

Zombie Cops can, from a decent distance, projectile vomit onto the player. Of course, on top of being disgusting, this vomit is acidic and will deal damage if it hits. The damage is surprisingly low, but it will melt through the player's armor faster and is likelier than a regular zombie melee attack to cause the Infection status.

Thankfully before vomitting, Zombie Cops give off enormous telltale signs that it's coming. They will emit a very loud gurgle and appear to throw their heads back just before the vomit maneuver comes.

Answer: Screamer

All of the actions mentioned in the question will gradually increase the player's Heat level. Screamers directly respond to Heat, and when the player reaches various, unknown benchmarks for Heat, a Screamer will spawn and travel towards their base.

If the Screamer spots a player, it will scream very loudly. This will spawn in a zombie horde, the size determined by Game Stage and Heat, that will be able to see the player through walls. This will necessitate the player's hand in directly dealing with them, as hiding will not work.

Answer: Passively heal

The moment a Radiated Zombie takes damage that brings their health beneath 80%, they will begin to heal. They will not heal above 80% of their health, but even from 1%, they can quickly get a lot of health back if the player doesn't finish the job.

The Rad Remover mod, placeable on most guns and melee weapons, will remove this passive healing for 90 seconds. As such, players struggling with Radiated Zombies should get this mod, as it will help to solve the problem firmly.

Answer: Anyone who is suffering from a negative status effect

Ranging from Infected to having an Abrasion, broken or sprained body parts, too high or low of a body temperature, Zombie Vultures are surprisingly good at paying attention to these things. They will prioritize whichever target is suffering from the most maladies in general.

They do not seem to care about player health bars, so someone low on health but without any status afflictions will be skipped over in favor of someone on high health with status afflictions.

Answer: Deadly Radiation

If the player tries to travel so far that they would be leaving the entire map itself, they will enter a never-ending radiation zone that will, until departed, permanently afflict travellers with this status. Deadly Radiation will kill the player extremely quickly, and this was done with the almost definite intention of stopping the player from just leaving the world of play.

Mutated Zombies, however, take this status effect into the world of play. If a player is hit by their acid spewing attack, it will briefly afflict Deadly Radiation. In total, between the acid hit and the brief application of this status, players will likely suffer around 70-80 total points of damage, provided they do not take any more hits. This is significant as, even at end game, players only have anywhere from 160-200 HP.

Answer: Zombie Rancher

Zombie Ranchers are identifiable by their farm clothing aesthetic, and are easy to distinguish in the brown, barren Desert. Their bee swarm moves slowly and does not deal much damage, but it will greatly slow the player as the swarm attacks and has a high 20% chance to apply Infection.

Answer: Zombie Chuck

Zombie Chucks have a lot of health and are larger than the average zombie. They can only throw one boulder, and act as regular zombies after throwing it. But the one boulder does a ton of damage if it hits, and guarantees a Stun on struck players. It also deals a lot of Block damage, making Chucks threatening to base structures as well.

Answer: Grace

Despite all the hype, Grace is surprisingly easy to both cheese and kill legitimately. She has about as much health as a Radiated Zombie, minus the ability to heal, and with a much larger hurtbox that makes her easier to hit.

In order to find Grace, the player must enter a large, metal cage with the name 'Grace' spelt out on it. In this cage, there is a hole in the ground with a ladder the player must go down. Going down this ladder and traveling through a hidden cave will allow the player to find Grace at the very back.

Seriously, the zombies likely to accompany Grace are more of a threat than she is. Grace will initially be found sleeping. If the player has a rifle better than the Pipe Rifle, they can easily just one shot Grace from afar with a well placed shot to her head without even awakening her.

Upon killing her, she will always drop a highly coveted Legendary Z-Pack, likely to have excellent loot in it. For this reason, Grace is a highly appealing choice for players to hunt due to her favorably disproportionate risk/reward factor.

Answer: They will explode

Attached to the chest of every Demolisher is a block of C4, initially appearing green. If ever struck, this green will become a flashing red, and the Demolisher will explode after ten seconds. If shot, detonation occurs immediately. If the player is near the blast, they will always be killed.
