History VideoGame / DeadTrigger

* BoomHeadshot: While zombies can be killed without aiming at their heads, shooting them in the head will kill or at least stun them long enough for another headshot or run.

** The second installment has both Daily Rewards (which earn a small amount of Gold) and Daily Job missions (whose income is doubled or tripled at the end of the mission).

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

* AnArmAndALeg: The player can blow zombies' limbs apart by aiming at them. However, they will keep going unless they receive a headshot.

!! The first game provides examples of the following tropes:

* ChainsawGood: The Chainsaw T-800.

!! The second game provides examples of the following tropes:
* AttackItsWeakPoint: Both Ragers and Panzers have weak points at their backs.
* TheBerserker: The appropriately-named Rager makes a "roar" motion upon seeing the player before charging at them, felling them to the ground and killing other zombies in the way.
* BlingBlingBang: The Desert Eagle has gold camouflage by default. The Shop also features golden versions of the AK 74, Peacemaker, SCAR and even ''Butterfly Swords'' among its premium weapons. By far, the only golden weapon that can be obtained through blueprint drops from Special Zombies is the Golden Jackhammer at Gunsmith Level 10.
* DemolitionsExpert: The Engineer produces all sorts of explosives. Even the Sentry Gun, Sentry Chicken, and Ammo Chicken explode once they're out of ammo.
* FastKillingRadiation: The Scienfist emits radiation that can deplete the player's health if they're within range. The radiation damage rate increases as it closes in on the player.
* GatlingGood: The Minigun, 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 and its high rate of fire causes the ammunition to deplete quickly.
* GratuitousSpanish: The Engineer uses Spanish words from time to time when addressing the player.
* HolyHandGrenade: A literal example is found in the aptly-named Holy Grenade, 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
* KillTally: The SCAR has one engraved into its magazine holder, titled "ZOMBIES".
* TheMedic: Tara (Medic) produces Painkillers and Auto-Heals for the player to regenerate their health.
* OneHitPolykill: In the Sentinel and Defense missions with the Sniper Rifle, the player can fell two or more zombies in one shot provided they are all in the line of fire.
** The shotgun Benelli 828U (spelled as Beneli 828U) can do the same in open-field missions.
* {{Projeggtile}}: A variation is found in the Boom Egg, which is thrown as a distraction for nearby zombies like the Boom Chicken. While they deal the same damage and have the same range as their Chicken counterparts, they have a shorter production time. However, the Boom Eggs are only produced in batches of two.
* RealMoneyTrade: Being online-only, ''Dead Trigger 2'' offers packages of powerful weapons that can only be obtained through buying a package with real money.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Red-eyed Zombies are more aggressive than green eyed ones and are intelligent enough to wield metal pipes as clubs.
* SentryGun: The Engineer produces them in batches of four, but the player can only have two of them active at the same time. Still, it can come in handy to handle any zombie that comes from behind.
** The Sentry Chicken serves the same role, only that it follows the player around and will run away when attacked by the zombies. Like the Sentry Gun, the player can only have two active units at the same time.
* ShootTheFuelTank: All missions have fuel barrels that the player can shoot in case of being chased by too many Zombies, or to take down a Special Zombie, provided it's close enough to the tank.
* StarterEquipment: At the beginning of this game, Kyle (the player character) is equipped with a CZ 75 and a wrench, both of which become useless as the game progresses.
* StuffBlowingUp: The Engineer produces explosives to deal with large crowds of Zombies, and even the stuff that's not supposed to explode (like Sentry Guns) does, causing mild damage to nearby Zombies. The Grenade Launcher and Rocket Launcher are also obvious examples.
* SuicideAttack: The Kamikaze is a Special Zombie who has a fuel barrel strapped to its body. If the player gets too close or the Kamikaze is killed, it will crush the barrel to blow itself up, killing or dealing heavy damage to the player depending on how close they got. However, in the former scenario, it won't drop any items if the player survives its explosion.

* TheMedic: Tara produces Painkillers and Auto-Heals for the player to regenerate their health.

* DemolitionsExpert: The Engineer produces all sorts of explosives. Even the Sentry Gun, Sentry Chicken, and Ammo Chicken explode once they're used up.
* FastKillingRadiation: The Scienfist emits radiation that can deplete the player's health if they're within range, draining it quicker as they get close.

* SuicideAttack: The Kamikaze is a Special Zombie who has a fuel barrel strapped to its body. If the player gets too close, it will crush the barrel and blow itself up, killing or dealing heavy damage to the player depending on how close they got.

* 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.

* ShootTheFuelTank: All missions have fuel barrels that the player can shoot in case of being chased by too many zombies, or to take down a Special Zombie, provided it's close enough to the tank.

** Yusif (Smuggler), whose role is to give the player money/health/damage boosters and [[DeathIsASlapOnTheWrist Second Chances]] in exchange for gold, is a black man.

* ProjEggTile: A variation is found in the Boom Egg, which is thrown as a distraction for nearby zombies. While they deal the same damage as their Chicken counterparts, they have a far wider range, which means they can kill the farthest zombies. However, they are only produced in batches of two.

* DemolitionsExpert: The Engineer produces all sorts of explosives (an exception being the Ammo Chicken).

* TheBerserker: The appropriately-named Rager makes a "roar" motion upon seeing the player before charging at them, throwing them to the ground if they don't get out of the way.

** Roberto (Engineer), a mechanic who produces explosives to equip the player with, is implied to be Mexican, what with peppering his speech with Spanish words.

* HolyHandGrenade: A literal example is found in the aptly-named Holy Grenade. Despite being far weaker than a Frag Grenade, it has a wider range and is cheaper and faster to produce.

* OneHitPolykill: In the Sentinel and Defense missions with the Sniper Rifle, the player can fell lines of zombies in one shot provided they have the right timing.
