In the short demo I saw, players had to board up broken windows and doors to slow enemies as they rush the room. Fixing windows with a teammate speeds up the process. Each level ends with a tough boss battle.<\/p>\n<p>While there aren&#8217;t different classes in the game, players can chose a play style that suits them. There are <strong>different types of turrets<\/strong> you can deploy. For example, one serves up ammo to your teammates while another heals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-63030\" title=\"ZMR_The_Pit\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-568x319.jpg\" alt=\"ZMR_The_Pit\" width=\"568\" height=\"319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-568x319.jpg 568w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-256x144.jpg 256w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2014\/03\/ZMR_The_Pit.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What makes ZMR interesting is the focus on <strong>environmental weapons<\/strong>. Each level will feature a couple of environmental set pieces that can help a team survive huge waves of enemies. I saw a spiked pillar steamroll through a horde of zombies (and myself, unfortunately). There is also a corridor trap that roasts enemies with flames.<\/p>\n<p>Zombies Monsters Robots will be a <strong>free-to-play<\/strong> game so expect in-game purchases. Weapon upgrades and in-game currency can be purchased with real money.
