Combo Cards



A Combo Card is the representative showcase for a combo weapon unlocked by the player. If Chuck gets an idea about a possible combination, for example by examining a commercial billboard of a movie with a flamethrower on it, the combo card to create that weapon will be unlocked. These Combo Cards will show what items you will need to combine at a maintenance room, and also depict how it will look and how much bonus PP it grants while using it to attack zombies. Combo weapons made through Combo Cards will have access to bonus PP and the heavy attack, unlike combo weapons made through Scratch Cards which will only have the regular attack and no bonus PP.

These Combo Cards and Scratch Cards are found back in the game menu, for the player to check what items need to be combined to create a certain combo weapon again and to see for what combination all options are unlocked and for which aren't. Unlike unlocking Combo Cards by secret checkpoints like billboards and signs throughout the game, Scratch Cards are unlocked directly by combining 2 or more items to create a combo weapon in a maintenance room without having the relevant Combo Card unlocked. The Scratch Card looks just like the Combo Card, but instead in full color, it will be showed in brownish red only, and with no bonus PP indicated.

There is a secret combo card that once created, gives the player a secret achievement.
