Nuclear Outrun (iOS/Android) Tips and Tricks Guide: Cheats, Hints and Strategies

Nuclear Outrun is the mobile adaptation of the popular flash game from way back in 2012. In this game you play as one of many survivors, driving a truck through a horde of zombies and other villains who are trying to kill you. It’s an endless driver game, but unlike most endless drivers, you don’t control the truck – you only control the gunner. Read on for some tips and tricks for Nuclear Outrun!

The easiest way to go farther in the game is to upgrade the weapons that you already have. This will allow you to fire constant shots at the zombies. When you hit a zombie, you lose armor, even if they appear to simply be laying down or flying in the air, so you’ll want as much ammo as possible.

Buy The Lady car, too, because it provides a MUCH smaller target than the trucks, allowing you to avoid getting hit by some of the missiles and other attacks that would hit the trucks. Once you get a female survivor, have her be the driver, and The Lady will get a bonus of four extra armor. The Cheerleader makes an excellent companion driver because of the huge speed bonus she’ll provide.

Shoot the balloons every time that you see them. The gold balloon will give you extra coins, while the red balloons will fire shots in six directions that will absolutely annihilate anything in their path. The green balloons will give you a temporary speed boost, allowing you to rocket forward quickly and blast straight through zombies.

Get rid of any single shot weapons that you have equipped. Machine-gun style weapons and shotgun-style weapons are the ones that are most valuable in your inventory, because they will allow you to conserve your ammunition, since they can more easily destroy multiple zombies, missiles and balloons with just one shot each.

You can get a free vehicle and a free gun just by sending a tweet from the game. You don’t have to use the original message, though – change the message to anything that you want. If the tweet fails, then you will still get the free Twitgun or the free vehicle. The Twitgun is essentially a more powerful version of the Squid Launcher.
