The goal of the game is the same as the console version, to survive the unending hordes of zombies for as many rounds as possible. Unlike the console version, players can change the difficulty to either Recruit, giving the player more health, or Regular, just like the console version. Zombies will walk, run, or crawl toward players and try to attack and kill them. Zombies can be killed in the same ways the player does in the console version:
•Shooting them
•Melee attack them with the knife
•Throw grenades
•Bouncing Betties
•Traps (not available on Nacht der Untoten)
The weapons currently featured in Call of Duty: Zombies are:
•Colt M1911 — Fast rate of fire, very low damage, average recoil, swift reload.
•.357 Magnum — One shot kill up until around round 20, high recoil and damage, swift reload.
•MP-40 — Decent fire rate with medium damage and recoil, swift reload.
•PTRS-41 (Un-scoped) — Slow fire rate with extremely high damage and low recoil, slow reload.
•Gewehr 43 — Decent fire rate with medium damage and low recoil, average reload.
•The Ray Gun and the Wunderwaffe DG-2 have much less splash damage in this game than on consoles. The Monkey Bomb has a longer wind up time as well, and is dropped instead of thrown.
•In Nacht Der Untoten, wolves can be heard howling.
•On iOS 8 devices, a black bar will appear on either side of the game-screen. Note that controls quit responding if one's fingers slide into this area.
•On iPhone and iPad devices, the player cannot create a profile, making it impossible to play multiplayer. However, they can create a profile on certain iPods.
