Yet Another Zombie Survivors Achievements Guide
Check all 229 Steam achievements and solve story, Survivor, map, mode, damage, restriction, Potato, and Sanji goals.
Quick answer
- The Steam version has 229 achievements after the version 1.0 update.
- Story and Survivor mission achievements are not missable and unfinished missions can be replayed.
- Plan challenge runs around one map, mode, squad size, and upgrade restriction at a time.
- Curly Little Potato needs one Potato and Sanji's window on Vile Wasteland in the current item system.
Version 1.0 achievement and progression overview
See the current Camp, achievement interface, story progression, maps, modes, and released-game run structure.
Plan challenge achievements by restriction
Treat achievements as route planning: combine goals only when they ask for the same map, mode, and restrictions.
| Goal family | Reliable setup |
|---|---|
| Solo Default | Use a well-invested leader on Isolated City; take focused damage, movement, armor, and dodge support |
| Solo Hardcore | Finish ordinary solo and Hardcore clears first, then combine the lessons for You And What Army? |
| No abilities | Play Default Isolated City, take weapon choices, and banish or skip every cog-marked ability |
| No weapon upgrades | Build around abilities, banish gun-marked upgrades, and keep new weapon levels untouched |
| High damage tag | Focus one family across the squad, matching items, Research Pods, and evolved attacks |
| Long Endurance | Prioritize sustained damage, movement, armor, dodge, maximum HP, and recovery unless a restriction forbids it |
| Hazard challenges | Use the named map, lower unnecessary damage intake, and leave room to observe the Worm, trains, acid, or boss animation |
| Boss interruption | Build high early burst and use manual aim when the target must die before casting, charging, spinning, or pouncing |
For Skill Issue, abilities use the cog icon. For Hold My Keg, avoid upgrading weapons for the full 20 minutes; picking ability upgrades remains valid. Lockdown, reroll, banish, and skip are useful when every offered card would break the restriction.
Zero Deaths healing rules
Zero Deaths asks for a completed Hardcore run without healing from items or abilities. Avoid Medic, healing or regeneration abilities, healing-tagged items, and healing or regeneration Military Training choices during the run.
Ordinary floor Healthpacks and permanent regeneration were designed not to invalidate this condition. The risky choices are upgrades selected inside the run. Version 1.0 also clarified that Glass of Milk is no longer classified as a healing item, though the safest attempt still uses a clean damage, armor, dodge, movement, and maximum-HP plan.
Use Isolated City when the achievement permits any map. It has the simplest environmental pressure, letting the run focus on Hardcore scaling and the healing restriction.
Curly Little Potato and Sanji the Rabbit
Complete Power Overwhelming first so Potato is available. Start Vile Wasteland, preferably in a mode that gives enough time to open several item chests. Reduce the item pool before the run, then use rerolls and banishes until Potato appears.
After taking one Potato, travel along the east to northeast edge of Vile Wasteland. Look beyond the playable boundary at the house windows near the village. Sanji's ears appear in one window; stay close for a few seconds until the hearts and achievement trigger.
Early footage shows collecting three Potato copies. That setup predates the item overhaul. Current items are single-stack, so do not wait for impossible duplicate copies.
