''[[https://www.roblox.com/games/2984072291/NEW-CHAPTER-Zombie-Stories-Beta Zombie Stories]]'' is a FirstPersonShooter developed on ''VideoGame/{{Roblox}}'' by PANDEMIC., a group that also made the game's predecessor, ''Zombie Blitz''. You play as four classes and either take on the zombies alone, or work together in a group of up to 6.

Aside from the story, there are also other game modes available;
* '''''Training''''': Learn the basics of the game here, and test your skills to see if you can not only be fast, but accurate as well.
* '''''PVP''''': Currently has one game mode, Team Gun Battle, in which both teams race to reach the most points/51st point before the timer runs out.
* '''''Swarm''''': Team up with a group of players to either survive 3 minutes or gather fuel for the escape vehicle (Scavenge only as of October 6, 2020) while defending against hordes of zombies.
* '''''Survival''''': Team up with a group of players to survive 10 waves before eventually making your escape while earning money to buy primary weapons and grenades, and even more ammo.

* AnAxeToGrind: A hatchet is available as a melee weapon, though you can't throw it.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures:
** The higher the difficulty, the less cutscenes occur, which considering how you can grind some levels over there, is a bit of necessity.
** When playing solo, the game gives you a [[DeflectorShields energy shield]] that regenerates to compensate the fact that you're playing alone, allowing you to take at least one hit without losing health.
* AwesomeButImpractical: The Sniper class is this compared to Assault class, since their rifles were designed for headshot damage, at the cost of rate of fire, which is not so useful when rate of fire is critical in a game where you kill hordes of zombies. Less so in the PVP modes, where a single headshot can easily advance one to the victory.
* {{BFG}}: The Light Machine Guns you can get for the Support Class are big and bulky.
* BoringButPractical: Aside from the Medic and Support classes, the Assault class is this compared to the Sniper class, due to them having assault rifles, which are well-rounded for any situation and has better damage-per-second overall in contrast with the Sniper Rifles, which are slow and have overkill damage against zombies.
* BribingYourWayToVictory: LootBoxes aside, there's also the gamepasses you can purchase, most notably Revive +, which grants you one AED to revive per map, and there's also the option for reviving for 4 Robux.
* CombatMedic: The Medic not only has Submachine Guns to hold off against the zombies, but also can drop medkits for other to heal from (and prior to updates, used healing sprays to heal a teammate).
* CoolButInefficient: The [=HK21=]. Has the biggest magazine of all the guns in the game, barring modifiers, but there's a massive catch; it has no headshot multiplier. As such, it's good for clearing out hordes of zombies, but when against bosses, its drop of damage output is very noticeable.
* DoNotRunWithAGun: While played straight most of the time, this is defied with Focus, which grants the ability to run and shoot for a while/
* DropTheHammer: A big hammer is available to obtain from the Melee Box, and it's notable for dealing instant death when aiming for the head.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
** Some of the classes were heavily different compared to the beta versions, most notably the Medic, which had ''no primary weapon'', forcing it to rely on the nigh-useless P226 pistol and the assault classes to escort it.
** "Lab Breach" is this trope as a mission, being the basis of ''Zombie Blitz: Origins''' "2 Days Later", in which the story was drastically different, and there were almost no ammo boxes at the time, due to a Support class not being thought of the time as its playable counterpart in ''Zombie Blitz'' due to players having infinite ammo reserves over there.
* FryingPanOfDoom: A frying pan is available as a melee weapon. The "doom" part comes from the fact that it's one of the few weapons that can stun zombies.
* GatlingGood: The Vulcan Minigun is a developer weapon, and for good reason: It has [[MasterOfAll great all-around stats]] alongside having plenty of ammo.
* HardModePerks: The higher the difficulty, the better the experience rewards alongside the money you can get for purchasing LootBoxes.
* HoldTheLine: Most of the gameplay involves holding certain positions while repelling the zombie hordes.
* JokeItem: The game features a rubber chicken... ''as a melee weapon''. It performs no better compared to other melee weapons.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: The Katana is capable of hitting multiple hordes at once and has great range.
* KnifeNut: The M9 Bayonet and the Karambit are knives available to use as melee weapons.
* LootBoxes: The game implements them, with their contents either being weapon skins or outfits. Funnily enough, because of the way weapon skins work, you can essentially have an ACR which is locked to Level 34 ''right as soon as you unlock the weapon skin related to it'', making it Pay-2-Win of sorts.
* MacheteMayhem: A machete is your starting weapon.
* MagikarpPower:
** The [=PPSh-41=] starts out unremarkable compared to the other guns you get. Level it up to 17, and it gets a ''71 round base magazine'', making it one of the best [=SMGs=] you can get.
** The Makarov similarly starts out underpowered compared to other pistols. Level it up to 22, and it gets a ''80 round mag'', making it useful for prolonged holdouts.
* MoreDakka: The [=SMGs=] and [=LMGs=] provide great fire rates, especially if you add extra ammo modifications to them.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: ''Alien zombies that have a {{Electronic Eye|s}} and a {{Wolverine Claw|s}}''! And later, alien zombies who have rockets on their backs!
* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Aside from the alien zombies mentioned above, there's also zombies in ''Contamination'' who were infected by a virus-infested water source, and in ''Base Hawk'', they've seem to be infected with Subject OPV MRM.
* ShortRangeShotgun: While shotguns can hit at any range, going up close is the best way to maximize damage.
* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: [[SubvertedTrope No]]. While they do offer great burst damage, this doesn't excuse their rather low rate of fire, which is important when fighting off Bosses. Played straight in PVP modes, where it can instantly give out a free point provided you know how to take advantage of it.
* SniperRifle: The Sniper Class' primary weapon against the zombies.
* SuperMode: Both the Assault Class and the Sniper Class' ability is Focus, which allows running and gunning while also gaining increased rate of fire and reload times.
* StoryArc: Excluding the Legacy Stories, there are 2 story arcs so far:
** ''Zombie Blitz: Origins'': Acts as a prequel to ''Zombie Blitz'', which features a group of survivors escaping from the infested lab of alien zombies.
** ''Extraction'': After a extraction grows awry, an extraction team is searching for clues on what caused the zombie outbreak to happen over there, what happened to Nick's team, and the boss' true motives...
* ZombieStories: [[CaptainObvious Obvious]], as it contains multiple stories that involve zombies one way or another.

[[folder:''Zombie Blitz: Origins'']]
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Your health is regenerated after you obtain your equipment in "2 Days Later". Additionally, it also gives you your energy shield if you play solo.
* DeathFromAbove: In "Underground", much like "Base Hawk", there are zombies dropping from above in the last stretch, making an mission of survival more harder.
* EliteMooks: Dark versions of the Slashers and Chargers appear in the last stretch in "Underground", where they have significantly better health and damage compared to them.
* FakeDifficulty: At least for "Underground": Zombies dropping from above with no warning in where they land? Already a bit unfair, but there's also the fact that there are actually ''2'' waves of them!
* KingMook: A large version of the Slasher, General Slasher, serves as the boss of "Underground".
* MightyGlacier: The Smasher is slow, but it's powerful enough to deal a good hit and takes a lot of damage.
* {{Nerf}}: In a rare example where it benefits the player, the sequence where the zombies drop from above were reduced.
* NoGearLevel: "Underground" has you starting out with only a Hammer (and a scalpel for other players) until you get your equipment.
* PurpleIsPowerful: The Smasher has purple skin, and takes a lot of damage while also inflicting it as well.
* UniqueEnemy: There's only one Smasher in the game as of October 8, 2020, and it appears during the last stretch of "2 Days Later", making it technically the "boss" of that chapter.

[[folder:''Extraction'']]
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: Should the keycard fall through the floor, it's automatically picked up after 20 seconds, preventing the stage from becoming UnwinnnableByMistake.
* DeathFromAbove: Zombies drop from above in the last stretch, though thankfully they only appear near the edges of the mountain.
* LateToTheTragedy: By the time the team arrives, the area is infested with zombies, with Nick's team nowhere to be found.
* MultipleHeadCase: The boss of "Base Hawk" has multiple heads, though only the middle one is susceptible to bonus headshot damage.
* UncertainDoom: It's unknown what happened to Nick's team, but whatever happened was not pretty. Part of the story involves figuring out what happened over there, and to find traces of Nick's team.

[[folder:Legacy Stories]]
* AdaptedOut: The Boomers and the Witch do not appear in "Contamination". This is subverted on higher difficulties, however.
* AllYourBaseAreBelongToUs: "Area 51" begins with the titular area being overrun by Noobs.
* AntiFrustrationFeatures: The Tank does not [[Turns Red become faster]] if playing solo.
* Area51: Not only the titular mission is based off of that, it's also based on the Area 51 raid and uses the famous Area 51 map that was reused throughout many ''Roblox'' games.
* CharacterSelectForcing: Want to go for "Contamination" Solo? You're going to need a Sniper with a Ruger 10/22, since the enemies over there are much more durable compared to others, and thankfully, the amount of enemies have been reduced just good enough for a Sniper to take care of them with ease. The Sniper's Focus also allows him to perform running while gunning, allowing him to deal with the Tank much easier, especially since he doesn't go faster after losing half his health.
* CloneDegeneration: Heavily implied with the Noob Clones, as they basically act like the zombies of the mission "Area 51".
* GreaterScopeVillain: GRI, who was responsible for releasing the modified chemicals to contaminate the water supply to infect people, but they're not encountered in "Contamination".
* GrenadeSpam: The Noob Leader utilizes this in his boss fight.
* HardLevelsEasyBosses: "Area 51" has massive hordes of Noobs, and later, you're forced to deal with Noobs with guns who can take a good chunk off your health. The Noob Leader, on the other hand? His attacks are easily predicted, even with the GrenadeSpam.
* HardModeFiller: "Lab Breach" is basically "2 Days Later" without the ammo box to resupply or a generator to hide from. Hope you brought a Support, because there's a ''very'' good chance that they might overrun your team!
* IncrediblyDurableEnemies: To keep up with the original version's NintendoHard nature, "Contamination" features zombies that are significantly more durable than Slashers!
* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:The Noob Leader ultimately gets away with the takeover of Area 51, even with a good trashing inflicted on him.]]
* LightningBruiser: In contrast with the other boss fights, the Tank is not only durable as heck, it also hits hard and runs fast.
* MultipleEndings: "Area 51" has one depending if you rescued both survivors of the raid or not.
* NostalgiaLevel: "Contamination" is a remake of the ''Roblox'' game of the same name.
* RippedFromTheHeadlines: "Area 51" is based on the real-world event "Storm Area 51", which, unlike its real-life counterpart, was an actual raid. The aftermath can be seen in the form of Noob Clones who have taken over the base.
* SchmuckBait: Are you ''really'' sure you want to attack the Witch in "Contamination"? Because she can instantly kill players in one hit, not to mention she can outpace the player.
* SuicideAttack: To make up for their low health, Boomers will do this, instantly killing anyone near them.
* TurnsRed: In multiplayer sessions of "Contamination", the Tank will be faster when his health is less than 50%.
* TheUnreveal: It's never known how the players ended up in the location of "Contamination".
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Mike has little characterization compared to the others, and is unceremoniously killed halfway into "Contamination".
* YouAreTooLate: The players are unable to arrive in time to save Mike from zombies in "Contamination".
