Zombie Escape is a recent game mode in Block Strike.

## About

Zombie Escape is almost same as Zombie Survival's Escape map, with some changes, these are:

* Red doors open when a minute starts (instead of a countdown) and sirens advert if players are bit far.
* Zombies can't destroy objects, instead, the survivors can (with any weapon).
* Survivors win if they reach to the safe zone, if they aren't and the timer ends, they die winning the round.
	+ When theres 1 survivor in the safe zone and the others are left behind, Zombies wins the round.
* There are Radiation zones, players can go there quickly and climb the stairs, optionally, players can jump in small pillars to evade HP damage.
* Survivors can't hide with Barricades, but there are 2 Huts with an destroyable bridge (Pit map only).

Survivors have to make their way across several stages of the map (which unlock one by one every minute), while shooting zombies off their tail, which is made easier due to special mechanics of this map: bullets not only do damage but also push zombies back whenever they hit one. The force with which zombies are pushed back depends on the weapon used: a weak pistol like a Glock or Five-seveN won't push the undead far away, but a powerful assault rifle like an AK-47 or a machine gun like an M249 will.

Once a stage is unlocked, zombie spawn is moved to previous stage's ending point, which means that if a zombie is killed and a new stage was already unlocked, he will respawn at an updated position, closer to survivors. This makes certain players be more aware of the time and surroundings and punishes the ones who aren't careful.

## Tips

### Survivors:

* Always stick together or have at least one player near you, this will increase your chances of survival.
* If you have the vantage point, provide covering fire for players escaping from the undead, an extra survivor or two can do wonders.
* Use powerful primary and secondary weapons, preferably the ones with large magazine capacity. Combos such as LSAT/M249 with Deagle/Magnum are ideal.
* Don't use shotguns on your own, their sluggish rate of fire completely negates their damage output , instead, use shotguns when you're with your team especially on escape as the multiple pellets can easily push zombies away.
* Assault rifles are good (although not the best) weapon of choice. G36 is the best example, due to its' high magazine capacity (35, as opposed to regular 30 or even 20) and damage comparable to AK-47. The AUG can be used to hold down areas and provide covering fire for your fellow survivors.
* Don't use a sniper rifle unless you're holed up and you've got several teammates with you.
* Always aim for zombie's head, especially if you're being chased.
* Bullets can push zombies away, giving you the advantage to escape from the attacker.
* Shoot any zombies in sight, especially if you are holding a vantage point. The fewer health they have, the fewer chances of them getting to you are.
* Don't spray your weapon unless a zombie is in rather close proximity. Instead, fire in bursts or use your secondary weapon.
* If your primary weapon runs out of ammo and you are being chased, don't reload it, bacause your running speed with it is the slowest and zombie(s) will quickly catch up with you. Instead, switch to your secondary weapon or run to a safe spot if there is one nearby.
* Don't camp at zombie spawn, you will most likely die.
* Don't mindlessly run in front of your teammates when they're firing, you'll block their shots and ruin your team's chance of survival.
* Occasionally check the timer.

### Zombies:

* If you are a zombie at the start of the round, run to the most common spot for survivors to gather as fast as possible. You might catch some players off guard and take them out.
* If you see a player at a vantage point - don't try getting to him by yourself, as bullets will push you away (which is a crucial factor if you have to bunny hop to get to the vantage point) and, not to mention, lower your health.
* Check zombie spawn for campers, they'll easily be an extra kill for you if they're cocky.
* If most survivors are gathered at one particular spot, run around the map to make sure that there are no lurking players.
* Always attack as a team (whether it's a vantage point), unless there is only one survivor.
* Occasionally check the timer.
* Don't focus on a single player only, you'll hinder your fellow zombies in overrunning the survivors.
