A secret of the other version

The Moon rockets Easter egg is not in Nuketown Zombies Legacy, the build of this book. Clix added it in 2025 to the mod-friendly Nuketown Zombies, the second Workshop page of the map; on the Legacy page, players report that the television never turns on. It ties Nuketown to the end of Moon: a code sent through the television of the green house lets Maxis fire the rockets at the Earth.

Before starting

It needs the Galvaknuckles, sold for 6000 points behind the debris of the truck, and a phone with an SSTV decoder app, which turns a sound into an image. Players name DigiDecoder on iPhone.

The steps below follow the only full video guide of this Easter egg, by Grave, checked against the scripts of the mod-friendly version and a live game by Flapix.

Step 1: the television

  1. Clear the debris of the truck for 3000 points, knife the box inside it and buy the Galvaknuckles.
  2. In the green house, punch the television with the Galvaknuckles. It plays a sound.
  3. Hold the phone next to the speakers: the app decodes the sound into an image that shows a four-digit code. The code is drawn at random among thirteen.

Step 2: the code

The dial and the buttons

On the right of the screen: the dial turns the digit shown, and the power button at the bottom right enters it.

  1. Turn the dial to the first digit of the code, then press the power button to enter it.
  2. Do the same for the three other digits.
  3. When the code is right, the screen lights up. A wrong code makes it flash and sparks fly.

Step 3: the rockets

  1. Survive until round 26. Maxis speaks from the Moon and takes control of the station.
  2. The zombies stop spawning. Maxis finishes his calculations and launches three rockets.
  3. After “30 seconds to impact”, the rockets hit the Earth in a huge blast.
  4. The zombies spawn again, and the game goes on in a burning landscape under a changed sky.
