* DiscOneNuke: The best melee weapon in the entire game, Kungfu Fists, can ''obliterate'' zombies with a series of powerful and fast punches, effectively making Jack a LightningBruiser... They can be found in the third level.

** Subverted in that the revolver doesn't actually do much damage at all; if you go for torso shots you might as well just be throwing spitballs. What really makes the revolver a good weapon is that it can dismember limbs (including scoring 1-hit-kill headshots), while the hunting rifle can't.

* HitboxDissonance: If you're playing the unpatched version of the game, the hitboxes are ''very'' messed up. Shooting a zombie in the head will often blow off one of their arms instead, etc. Since the company folded and the patch is no longer officially hosted, this can be a problem.

* AbsurdlySpaciousSewer: Yes, this game has one.
* ArtificialStupidity: Otis, as seen in the level where you have to escort him to his truck. He often stops moving randomly, ignores a zombie that's right in front of him(sometimes, shooting at another zombie in the distance), and shoots at zombies that are already dead. Then again, he IS the only AI-controlled human NPC in the entire game.

* EliteZombie: The game isn't as sensationalist as games like ''VideoGame/Left4Dead'' or ''VideoGame/DeadIsland'', so there are no super-powered special zombies. The closest the game has to an EliteZombie are zombies armed with melee weapons, who have more health and are immune to headshots or dismemberment. There are also zombies with a [[ZombiePukeAttack ranged puke attack]], zombies that explode when approached, zombies that crawl on all fours, and stationary "screamer" zombies that summon endless respawning reinforcements until killed. However, all except the melee weapon zombies have the same stats are the "regular" zombies and use the same character models.
* ExplodingBarrels

* LethalJokeItem: The kung-fu fists are so powerful(& fast firing) they are also a GameBreaker. After finding them [[spoiler: in a closet in your murdered neighbor's house]], the game becomes a breeze, even with mods that add several thousand zombies, or turn your character into a One-Hit-Point Wonder. After getting the kung-fu fists, the only difficult mission is "Heavy Gunner", because you are given a [[GatlingGood minigun]] and must use it instead of the kung-fu fists.

* NotUsingTheZWord: Various terms for zombiues are bandied around ("flesh feasters", "awakened dead", and "soulless walkers") but not the big z-word.

* ArtificalStupidity: Otis, as seen in the level where you have to escort him to his truck. He often stops moving randomly, ignores a zombie that's right in front of him(sometimes, shooting at another zombie in the distance), and shoots at zombies that are already dead. Then again, he IS the only AI-controlled human NPC in the entire game.

''Land of the Dead: Road to Fiddler's Green'' is a 2005 first person game that is a prequel to the movie ''Film/LandOfTheDead''. In it, you are a farmer who notices the ZombieApocalypse and travels looking for a safe place to call home. Eventually, you help clear out Fiddler's Green for Mr. Kaufman.

However, all except the melee weapon zombies have the same stats are the "regular" zombies and use the same character models.

* MinimalistCast: Due largely to the game's small budget. Only 4 human characters appear in the entire game; Jack (our Hero), Otis (a trucker who he teams up with for a couple missions), an unnamed Doctor who turns into a zombie after a couple levels, and Kaufman (the main human villain of ''Film/LandOfTheDead''). Only Jack and Otis are voiced, with Doc and Kaufman's dialogue being provided by Jack in the form of a narration.

* MultiMookMelee: The game's co-op mode is a survival[=/=]barricade scenario against an endless horde of zombies. It noteably pre-dates both the Horde mode of ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar'' and the ''NaziZombies'' mode of ''Franchise/CallOfDuty''.
