Terraria zombie capture gameplay Magicolo 2014
The Zombie is an enemy that appears at night, and is one of the primary reasons newer players will want to build a shelter quickly and remain indoors at night. It is generally among the first enemies the player will encounter, as it appears nightly along with the Demon Eye in areas where newer players will explore first, including around the player's initial Spawn point. Multiple NPCs living in the area will reduce or prevent local enemy spawns, including Zombies and other nightly enemies, though NPCs are only available later in the game.
The Zombie appears only in above-ground Biomes during the night, walking towards the player in order to make contact, which is its only method of attack. It can also jump and navigate Wood Platforms in order to accomplish this. The Zombie will kick a closed Door in its path repeatedly, but will only be able to open it during a Blood Moon event.
