Strategy

Strategy 1

Lineup: Mohawk Cat, Eraser Cat 20+60, Manic Mohawk Cat, Manic Eraser Cat 40, Bullet Train Cat 40, Cyberpunk Cat 30+3, Awakened Mina 30, Slapstick Cats 40, Manic Macho Legs 30, Seafarer Cat 30.

Cannon: Holy Blast 10

Spawn a few Slapstick Cats and Bullet Train Cats for the starting enemies. Once you hit the enemy base, just spam meatshields and Slapstick Cats and pray. Use your Holy Blast whenever the Zomboes burrow to prevent them from cutting off your supply lines. You can use Can Can Cat instead of Seafarer Cat, but be careful not to let it hit the enemy base before you have saved up enough money.

Trivia

• Prior to Version 11.5, Zomboe spawned infinitely after hitting the base, rather than only twice.
