Zombies (TranZit)

TranZit and Green Run trophies. Most are simple one-off actions on the bus route; one is the big co-op easter egg.

🧟 Tower of Babble (the TranZit easter egg) needs co-op and coordination — the trickiest trophy here. The rest are quick TranZit tasks.

How TranZit Works — Survival Basics

New to Green Run? Read this before you chase the trophies — it's what keeps you alive and moving through the fog.

  1. 1Build the Turbine first. Its parts (fan, tail, mannequin) are at the Bus Depot. The Turbine opens any door that needs power and runs traps and turrets — nothing on the map moves without it, so make it your first job.
  2. 2Ride the bus — don't walk the fog. T.E.D.D. drives a fixed loop: Bus Depot → Diner → Farm → Power Station → Town, then back over the bridge. Grab buildable parts at each stop and bolt them to the bus (cowcatcher, ladder, hatch, trailer) for a moving safe zone.
  3. 3Deal with the Denizens. In the fog these creatures lunge and latch onto your head — knife them straight off instead of trying to shake free. Trick: kill one right by a lamp post and it opens a teleport portal you can walk through to skip across the map.
  4. 4Turn the power on at the Power Station. Drop down the hole into the underground room, build the power switch from its three parts and flip it. Only then do the perk machines and Pack-a-Punch work properly.
  5. 5Find Pack-a-Punch — then the easter egg. Pack-a-Punch is hidden in the bank vault in Town; blow the vault door open with grenades once the power's on. When you're ready for the big one, the map's main quest is Tower of Babble — side with Maxis or Richtofen (full walkthrough below).

Tower of Babble

SilverFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, obey the voices.

TypeSilver
LocationTranZit (co-op easter egg)
MissableNo
DifficultyVery Hard

How to earn it

The main TranZit easter egg — 'obey the voices' means following either Dr Maxis (power OFF, needs 2+ players) or Richtofen (power ON; only Samuel can hear him). Both are long, staged quests run across the whole bus route.

Step by step

  1. Build a Turbine at the Bus Depot (parts: fan, tail, mannequin) — at least two players need one.
  2. Build the Jet Gun (Thrustodyne Model 23) from its parts scattered around the map.
  3. Get EMP Grenades from the Mystery Box — you'll need them for the later steps.
  4. Follow your chosen voice's instructions at each location along the bus route, using the turbines and Jet Gun where directed.
  5. Final step (Richtofen): all players EMP the map's lamp posts at the same time — easiest with four players, one per lamp post.

Pro tips

  • By far the hardest Zombies trophy — do it with a coordinated 2–4 player team and a current step-by-step video, since the steps must be done in order.
  • Pick ONE side (Maxis or Richtofen) and have everyone commit to it for the whole game.

Don't Fire Until You See

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, have all doors opened without being set on fire.

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit
MissableNo
DifficultyMedium

How to earn it

Open all 19 doors in a single TranZit game without ever being set on fire. The fog denizens and the Avogadro can ignite you, so move carefully between areas and keep them off you while you buy and open every door.

Tip

Ride the bus and clear the route methodically — rushing on foot through the fog is what gets you burned.

The Lights Of Their Eyes

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In Green Run, pacify at least 10 zombies with 1 EMP .

TypeBronze
LocationGreen Run
MissableNo
DifficultyEasy

How to earn it

Pacify at least 10 zombies with one EMP grenade — EMPs briefly stun nearby zombies. Gather a tight group, then throw a single EMP into the middle of the horde.

Undead Man's Party Bus

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, complete all additions to the bus in 1 game.

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit
MissableNo
DifficultyMedium

How to earn it

In one game, add every buildable part to the bus — the ladder, the hatch, the cowcatcher/ram and the trailer. Collect the parts around the map and attach them all before the game ends.

Tip

Gather parts as you ride between stops rather than braving the fog on foot.

Dance On My Grave

In Green Run, acquire your Tombstone.

TypeBronze
LocationGreen Run
MissableNo
DifficultyEasy

How to earn it

Buy the Tombstone Soda perk, then go down (bleed out) while holding it. On your next spawn, walk back to your body's tombstone marker to reclaim your perks and gear — grabbing it unlocks this.

Standard Equipment May Vary

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, acquire 4 different equippable items in 1 game.

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit

DifficultyMedium

How to earn it

Acquire 4 different equippable buildables in a single game — e.g. the Turbine, the Turret, the Subsurface Resonator and another workbench buildable. Assemble and pick up four distinct ones.

You Have No Power Over Me

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, defeat "him" without being attacked by "him".

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit
MissableNo
DifficultyMedium

How to earn it

Defeat 'him' — the Avogadro, the electric boss — without being hit by him. The Avogadro can only be put down by luring him onto the power switch to discharge him, or by hitting him with an EMP grenade; do it without taking any of his attacks.

Tip

An EMP grenade is the safest way to drop the Avogadro at range without letting him touch you.

I Don't Think They Exist

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, kill one of the denizens of the forest while it is latched onto you.

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit
MissableNo
DifficultyEasy

How to earn it

Kill a denizen of the forest while it's latched onto you. In the fog the denizens leap onto your screen — instead of shaking one off, just knife or shoot it while it's still clamped on.

Fuel Efficient

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, use an alternative mode of transportation.

TypeBronze
LocationTranZit
MissableNo
DifficultyEasy

How to earn it

Travel using something other than the bus. When a denizen latches on near a lamp post and you kill it there, it opens a temporary teleport portal — walk through that portal to travel between areas, and the trophy unlocks.

Happy Hour

BronzeFull guideCollapse

In TranZit, buy 2 different perks before turning on the power.

TypeBronze

How to earn it

Buy 2 different perks before turning on the main power. Use a Turbine to power a perk machine, buy a perk, then move the Turbine to a second machine and buy another — all before you flip the power switch.
