Below, you'll find a comprehensive guide on how to handle every creature you might encounter in this thrilling horror game.

All Monsters in R.E.P.O.

Animal

Threat Level: Low

The Animal is swift but harmless, dealing minimal damage. It's incredibly easy to eliminate as it doesn't retaliate.

Apex Predator (Duck)

Threat Level: Low

The Apex Predator remains docile unless provoked. For easy cash, lure it to the extraction zone and crush it using the piston.

Bang

Threat Level: Medium

The explosive Bang charges at you upon detection. Neutralize it by tossing it into water, lava, or acid. You can also use Bangs to damage other monsters.

Bowtie

Threat Level: Low

Bowties scream to immobilize you, pushing you back but not causing direct harm. Sneak up on them when they're not alert, as they're slow and vulnerable to attacks.

Chef

Threat Level: Medium

The Chef's attacks are predictable; it jumps and slashes with knives. Dodge its attack to make it stumble, then strike.

Clown

Threat Level: High

The dangerous Clown uses a height-adjusting laser and charges with melee attacks. Exploit its post-laser stun to either attack or escape.

Gnome

Threat Level: Low

Gnomes target your loot rather than you. They're weak; simply slam them into a wall or floor to dispatch them.

Headman

Threat Level: Low

The floating Headman becomes aggressive when illuminated but is otherwise harmless. Avoid shining lights on it.

Hidden

Threat Level: Medium

The Hidden, appearing as a smoke cloud, can stun you and strip your items. Its invisibility makes it hard to kill, so hide if you sense it nearby.

Huntsman

Threat Level: Medium

The blind Huntsman reacts to noise with deadly shotgun blasts. Avoid it by staying quiet and out of its patrol route.

Mentalist

Threat Level: Medium

The Mentalist uses an anti-gravity field to levitate and slam you down. It's vulnerable to melee attacks and can be rescued from its field by other players.

Reaper

Threat Level: Medium

The slow and deaf Reaper is easy to evade but strong. Use ranged weapons to kill it from a safe distance.

Robe

Threat Level: High

Robe is fast and aggressive, entering a frenzy when you look at it. Avoid eye contact and hide to evade it, as direct combat is risky due to its high HP.

Rugrat

Threat Level: Low

Rugrat scavenges and throws items at you if spotted but flees if empty-handed. It's best to avoid it, as it requires multiple people to kill.

Spewer

Threat Level: Medium

The Spewer chases and vomits at you, causing damage. Shake it off to make it retreat.

Shadow Child

Threat Level: Low

Despite its eerie appearance, the Shadow Child is easily dispatched with one hit due to its low HP.

Trudge

Threat Level: High

The slow but deadly Trudge pulls you in for an insta-kill mace strike. Hide and wait for it to leave rather than engaging.

Upscream

Threat Level: Medium

Upscreams travel in groups, grabbing and throwing you. Use a tranq gun to stun them, then slam them into walls or floors.
