All REPO Monsters & How To Deal With Them
Monster | How To Deal |
---|---|
Reaper | To deal with the Reaper, you just need to hide while he patrols past. If you are noticed, you just need to run into the next room to be forgotten. Beware of its deadly attacks. |
Shadow Child | This is one of the most harmless monsters once you learn how to counter it. And for this, simply don’t look at the Shadow Child in REPO. In this case, you will not receive damage and can safely explore the locations further. |
Duck (Apex Predator) | Most of the time, this monster just peacefully wanders behind you. But if you try to pick it up or attack it, the Duck will turn into an Apex Predator, which will easily kill you even if you have full Health, so just leave it alone, no matter how cute it seems. |
Trudge | Trudge can instantly kill you with one swing attack. But luckily, he is extremely slow, so you only need to avoid him to survive. |
Animal | This little creature has high speed but deals no more than four damage with its slow attacks. You can either kill it with any weapon or just ignore it since it’s almost harmless. |
Clown | Clown is extremely deadly, as its laser kills instantly, while its kicks deal 50 damage. The best strategy to deal with it is to hide behind indestructible cover and avoid it at all costs. |
Headman | Headman hates flashlights, so you just have turn your flashlight off to avoid being attacked. If you provoke him, you just have to run around the corner and hide somewhere. |
Banger | This monster spawns in groups of three and is essentially a living bomb. If you attack them, or they notice you, their fuses ignite, and after about 10 seconds, they explode. To avoid this, you can pick them up and throw them away. |
Robe | This entity is extremely deadly, so you should hide from it until it despawns. In case you are spotted, you should run as far as possible and then crawl, as this way you will only receive 50 damage. |
Bowtie | Despite its size, Bowtie is a fairly weak enemy. Its scream can block your Zips and Sprint, but it’s quite easy to avoid, so don’t catch his eye. |
Hidden | Hidden is one of the most annoying monsters, as he does not deal damage. Instead, he hooks you and throws you from side to side, causing you to lose your items. In addition, it is extremely difficult to notice him, as he looks like a translucent black haze. To avoid him, you need to carefully monitor your surroundings. |
Gnomes | Gnomes are another enemy that spawns in groups. They do little damage and also steal valuables. To get rid of them, just throw them at the wall. |
Upscream | You had better not play jokes with this monster because, despite its weakness, a group of them can easily kill you. Therefore, use any weapon to destroy them. |
Chef | This monster moves slowly but can catch you in one leap. Try dodging its attack, after which it ragdolls for a few seconds. This small window allows you to escape or attack the Chef in REPO. |
Spewer | Spewer will make your character puke, damaging everyone around them. However, you can get rid of the monster quite easily by simply picking it up and shaking it, causing it to fly away from you. |
Peeper | Since the Peeper lives on the ceiling, it is quite easy to spot him. Run away from the room or hide under tables or chairs to avoid taking damage. |
Rugrat | Although the monster looks like a small child, it is dangerous. It will pick up valuable items and throw them at you, causing great damage. If it does not pick up anything, it will run away when it meets the player. Therefore, you should avoid Rugrat only if it is carrying items. |
Mentalist | The monster can teleport anywhere on the map, and when it finds a player, it will create an anti-gravity field that will lift you and surrounding objects into the air. In this case, you will need the help of a friend to pull you beyond the anti-gravity zone. The rest of the time, you should hide from the Mentalist and wait for it to leave. |
Huntsman | Huntsman is one of the enemies that is blind but has excellent hearing. So any noise you make will provoke the monster to shoot at you. Try moving as quietly as possible or distracting the monster by throwing items to survive it. |
