The “Zombie Snacks” mode brings an exciting challenge to BO6 Zombies.
It comes with a unique twist where you have to manage an energy bar that goes down, your health doesn’t come back on its own, and you have to change how you move around.
Players have to solve five tough Easter eggs to unlock cool rewards. If you’re trying to get really good at this mode or want to dig into the secrets, you’re in the right place.
Let’s take a closer look at how to solve all five Zombie Snacks Easter eggs, including the main rules, tips, and a breakdown of the rewards waiting for you.
What is Zombie Snacks Mode?
Zombie Snacks is a Limited-Time Mode (LTM) that spins the traditional zombies formula into something equally thrilling and punishing. In this mode:
- Your health doesn’t come back on its own. You’re always low on health unless you use stims or certain tricks to get it back.
- Moving changes your health. Sliding, jumping, and running make your energy bar go down, so it’s important to stay still and play smart.
- Ring of Fire – Flow State Ability! The game adds a new thing called “flow-state” where if you get a lot of kills without getting hit, you do a ton of extra damage like a “Ring of Fire” that moves with you.
This balancing act turns a game where you would normally just run around and kill zombies into one where you have to think carefully and survive by being strategic and only attacking when you need to.
What are the Zombie Snacks Easter Eggs?
The Zombie Snacks mode has five Easter eggs you can complete for rewards. This guide will walk you through each Easter egg, step-by-step, so you don’t miss anything important.
1. Liberty Falls – Snack Gathering & Boss Fight
The Liberty Falls Easter egg starts with understanding how your energy bar works and ends with an exciting (and quite tricky) boss fight. Your main goal is to collect “zombie snacks” for energy while completing different tasks:
- Gather Zombie Snacks: Eating scattered snacks helps restore your energy bar. You can find them by defeating zombies and accessing power-ups like the Refrigerator Power-Up, which forces zombies to drop snacks.
- Flow State Mechanics: This Easter egg helps you get the most out of flow states. By getting zombie headshots and avoiding hits, you reach the purple glow bonus state with boosted weapon damage—essential for cutting through swarms and bosses.
- Boss Fight: The final Liberty Falls challenge is about keeping your health up while also dealing the most flow state-boosted damage to the boss. Tip: Upgraded pistols work wonders.
2. Terminus – The Abominations Gauntlet
Terminus offers a more thrilling rollercoaster ride. The Easter egg walkthrough can be summarized like this:
- Power the Energy Meter: Use vampire-like melee upgrades or health stims combined with small snack drops to keep enough health as you complete tasks.
- Flow State vs. Tentacles: The hordes in Terminus involve heavy vermin, and the secondary tentacle enemies make it nearly impossible to maintain flow state. However, well-timed Aether Shrouds and melee macchiato setups can pull you through.
- Boss Fight Preparation: Stock up on Aether Shrouds, stim equipment, and pack an upgraded weapon. The Flow State ability works better than expected against the tentacle boss, but it’s hard to keep up throughout.
3. Citadel – The Mommy (Statue Boss & Sword Play)
In the Citadel Easter egg, you’ll face a skill-heavy task of upgraded sword play and detailed ritual tasks.
- Upgrade the Swords: Each sword requires its own chant to be completed. Progress involves using sword-specific kills, combining energy patterns, and upgrading in order.
- Flow State Optimization: Using upgraded melee weapons in flow state is a game-changing plan to regain valuable energy while reducing health loss.
- Boss Fight – Stay Mobile: With a constant movement penalty in this mode, be extra careful about where you stand. Use PhD Slider or Vampiric Extraction to recover lost health quickly. Flow states are once again the savior here, especially for critical hits on the statue.
4. The Tomb – The Ice Staff Easter Egg
The Tomb Easter egg introduces the iconic Staff of Ice and is loaded with a slightly nostalgic, classic vibe. Here’s how to solve the steps:
- Build the Staff: Collect the elements needed to construct the Ice Staff, such as crystals and components from earlier maps.
- Upgrade the Ice Staff: Complete a shard ritual by charging and depositing energy into specific points on the map. Ensure the energy crystals are placed correctly, as mistakes will reset the process.
- Hall of Mirrors Challenge: One unique puzzle involves using laser reflections to break matching crystals. Speed and precision are key. If done right, this solves one of the hardest challenges, leaving the final boss.
- Boss Fight – Elemental Supremacy: Equip elemental weapons like Mustang & Sally, the Ice Staff, or highly upgraded pistols. Flow State makes a big difference in surviving and beating the Tomb boss.
5. The Shattered Veil – Smoke-Filled Arena
The Shattered Veil Easter egg ties all your Zombie Snacks training together. This finale features a heavy focus on chaotic movement and keeping visibility in a smoke-filled arena.
- Boss Fight Setup: By the time you arrive, it’s your armor investment, golden upgrades, and flow-state mastery that bring success in this final test.
- Mitigate Smoke Vision: Keep to the arena’s outskirts where smoke density is lower, and visibility is higher.
- Conquer Rex Boss Mechanics: The Rex leaping mechanic offers little room for mistake if your energy is low. Employ efficient dodges combined with constant chip damage.
- Sustain Snack Healing: Balancing healing through scattered snacks and minimizing movement is pivotal in the final phases.
Commom Strategies and Tips for Zombie Snacks
Here are some common strategies for boosting your chances of solving all five objectives:
1. Plan Your Loadout
Begin with consumables and field upgrades that maximize survival. Stims are the best equipment in Zombie Snacks because they instantly restore 50 energy.
Similarly, Aether Shroud provides emergency invulnerability and is a must-have for boss challenges.
2. Use Flow State as Your Crutch
If you can maintain flow state (10 kill streak without damage), the 10x damage boost will shred through hordes and bosses alike. Even unupgraded pistols turn into one-shot wonders during flow state.
3. Focus on Power-Ups and Augments
Keep an eye out for perks and power-ups scattered throughout each map:
- The Vampiric Extraction Augment with melee macchiatos replenishes energy when you land melee kills.
- Free Perks and Armor Upgrades: Side Easter eggs on each map offer bonus utility. Seek PhD Slider, Quick Revive, and the Golden Wrench for extra survivability.
4. Tag-Team the Challenges
If you’re tackling this in co-op, communicate constantly with your teammate to stagger objectives, cover different areas, and ensure no snacks are left uneaten.
Rewards & Unlockables
Solving each of the five Easter Eggs rewards players with unique GobbleGums delivered directly to your inventory, along with 15,000 XP per map. The full completion set includes rare and ultra GobbleGums like:
