βDeath Train Related Questions
What is Death Train?
Death Train is a unique tower defense game on Roblox where you must protect your train's core (the Gem) while moving through endless waves of zombies. Unlike traditional tower defense, your train moves continuously, and you deploy units on train cars to defend against the horde.
How do I play Death Train?
Start by deploying units on your train cars. They will automatically fire at zombies. Your goal is to protect the Gem on your train. You can upgrade the Gem to unlock better units and increase its health. Use the halt mechanic to explore towns and loot, but be careful of personal chasers!
What is the halt mechanic?
The halt mechanic allows you to stop the train to explore towns or fight specific threats. However, halting for too long spawns "Personal Chasers" - powerful zombies that target you. You can only halt after completing 5 waves without stopping, and cash earnings are reduced during halts to prevent AFK farming.
What are the best units in Death Train?
For late-game survival (Wave 25+), prioritize AoE (Area of Effect) units like the Lightning Cannon and Stone Launcher. These units can clear massive hordes efficiently. Early game, focus on basic units like Cowboy Guard and upgrade your Gem to unlock advanced slots.
How do I upgrade my Gem?
Upgrading the Gem requires gold and is crucial for progression. Each upgrade increases the Gem's health and unlocks the ability to purchase and place more advanced units. Focus on upgrading early to access high-tier units like the Lightning Cannon.
What are Personal Chasers?
Personal Chasers are special zombies that spawn when you stay away from the train too long or halt for extended periods. They have the same strength as your last completed wave and target you specifically, not the train. Your train defenses don't take damage from them.
