The mod also feature extra contents for players to play, such as bonus challenges and seasonal quests.
Tropes

- Aquatic Mook: The Big Wave Beach zombies, alongside the Tiki Tripper, Sea Spill Zombie, and Drowned Zombies, due to them originated from the Big Wave Beach, crawling from the depth sea.
- Airborne Mooks: Various flying zombies in the mod, custom and vanilla. The Assault Dove Zombie and Wannabe Gigantacus aren't really classified as ones though, due to them not being coded after flying zombies.
