History VideoGame / DeadTrigger

* ZombiePukeAttack: The Vomitron attacks by expectorating red spit at the player, which on top of dealing heavy damage, it can mess up with their aim for a short period of time.

* NoDamageRun: In the second game, it's possible to complete the missions without getting damaged, but it takes a lot of skill, patience, and in the case of F2P players, Boosters and Painkillers. Moreover, the game has a three-tier achievement for when you complete a specific number of missions without getting damaged.

** The Beneli 828U [sic] is an exceptional shotgun whose accuracy and tight pellet spread makes it capable of [[OneHitPolykill one-shotting lines of Zombies]] and at the same time, blowing off one or more of their limbs and earning you lots of Brutality/Lethality bonuses. However, being an over-and-under shotgun means it has an ''abysmally'' low clip size, which added to its slow rate of fire and low reserve size, on top of its aforementioned tight pellet spread becomes a hindrance against hordes spread horizontally, makes it easier for you to run out of ammo.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: In the second installment, red-eyed Zombies are more aggressive than green eyed ones and are intelligent enough to wield metal pipes as clubs.

** The Rocket Launcher, by definition, is capable of one-shotting hordes of Zombies over a wide area. Moreover, its exceptionally long reach and AoE damage are also helpful when searching for the hidden Golden Pigs scattered through the missions. That said, its magazine only holds four rockets and it has no reserve, on top of having a sluggish rate of fire and its weight slowing you down.

* DemolitionsExpert: The Engineer produces all sorts of explosives. Even the Sentry Gun, Sentry Chicken, and Ammo Chicken explode once they're out of ammo.

* GatlingGood: The Minigun from both games, with its high rate of fire and and clip size of 300, is almost guaranteed to disintegrate zombies in seconds. However, it's only effective when zombies are grouped together or corner the player, as said high rate of fire and lack of reserve ammo causes it to deplete quickly.

* HolyHandGrenade: A literal example is found in the aptly-named Holy Grenade from the second game, obtainable only through Premium packs. Despite being far weaker than a Frag Grenade, it has a wider range and is cheaper and faster to produce. Upon exploding, the Holy Grenade completely disintegrates the zombies it kills into nothing
* LargeHam: When you enter the Arena of Death or any Tournament, T.N.T will serve as the commentarise, cheerfully delivering bombastic lines as you fend off against the increasing difficulty of each Zombie wave.

* HealingPotion: Painkillers are an interesting example, as they not only restore a decent chunk of your Health but also ''increase'' it. However, the health increase is only for the remainder of the missions.

* LudicrousGibs: The Chainsaw T-800 and stronger shotguns allow the player to disintegrate zombies and thus earn them a Carnage/Brutality bonus.

Another game by the same team, ''VideoGame/{{Unkilled}}'', is considered the SpiritualSuccessor of the second game, and is now the property of DECA Games as of May 2023.

* TheArmorer: The second game features Buck (Gunsmith), who provides the player with weapons to fend off against the Zombie threat.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Until the second installment, this game only had one type of female zombie, unlike the male ones who could be either policemen, SWAT agents, or civilians. This female zombie also has the tendency to flail her arms around while running at the player to attack them.
