Maya’s revenge

Only in the standard mode of Citadelle des Morts, and only for a player who plays Maya: from round 13, the radio near Vulture Aid in the Dining Hall answers her. It opens a separate area full of zombies, then a cutscene in which Maya corners Francois “Franco” Moreau, the head of the French Syndicate who sold her brother Nathan to Project Janus, in a wine cellar. She is rewarded with a Legendary GS45 and other loot.

Free perks and Essence

The wishing well

With Vulture Aid, throw a cooked grenade into the well of the Village Ascent when a Vermin climbs out of it during a special round. It spits out Essence, which can be thrown back in, up to 10,000, and collected again after the next Max Ammo round, for the whole team.

The bartender

Three bottles hide in the Undercroft, the Sitting Rooms and the Dining Hall. Placed on the drink tray of the Tavern bar, they turn the player into a bartender: zombies line up and ask for a drink, 100 Essence for each right colour, then 7,000 Essence and a free PhD Flopper.

Mister Peeks

Four Mister Peeks to shoot, the first seen floating through a window of the Elemental Pop room, the last a doll on a bed in a cell of the Dungeon: every player then receives a random perk.

The Rat King

Break the cheese display of the Town Square and take the wheel at the bottom, find the mice hidden in nine places, then lay the cheese on the plate in the Oubliette Room. The rats leave rewards and a royal crown to wear.

Protectors and lockdown

The chess knight

Four chess pieces hide around the map. On the chess board of the Sitting Rooms they open a purple circle to defend; once enough souls are collected, a blue knight hologram fights beside the player for a few minutes.

The fireplaces

A Molotov or a charged Caliburn thrown into the four fireplaces of the Dining Hall, the Sitting Rooms, the Alchemical Lab and the Tavern, in a short time: the last one shoots fire orbs at the zombies.

The lockdown of the Undercroft

After the swords, the Incantations and the symbol wall of the main quest, an Incantation cast on each row of symbols locks the Undercroft behind purple flames for three waves of zombies, rewarded with a random perk and ammo mods.

The Lion Cannon and the bell tower

A second target

After the first shot of the Rampart Cannon its crank wheel flies off towards the Town Square, where it lies in a fruit box under the rubble. With it and the blow torch of the Dining Hall, the cannon can also fire players to the Dining Hall.

The bell tower

On the 100th flight towards the Town Square, the player hits the bell tower instead of the Tavern roof: two Monkey Bombs fall out and the bell rings for 30 seconds, drawing the zombies.

Music

Slave

Three headphones in the colours of Mister Peeks: in the Tavern on a round table between the Crafting Table and the armor wall buy, in the Courtyard past Speed Cola, and in the Undercroft stairway by the red sofa.

Caliburn

The second song, played by striking the three dragon braziers of the fire sword trial with Caliburn itself.

Hidden power-ups

Small models of each power-up hide around the map and can be collected once:

  • Insta-Kill: on the scaffolding above the Tavern, seen from the stairs down to the cellar, in the Town Square.
  • Max Ammo: on a window sill of the Upper Village.
  • Double Points: in a zombie window of the Alchemical Lab.
  • Full Power: on the roof of the Dining Hall.
  • Max Armor: on the ceiling of the Entrance Hall.
  • Nuke: above the Elemental Pop room, on the Hillside Ramparts.
  • Bonus Points: behind a couch in the Undercroft.
