Learn how to handle the kitchen encounter in Left 4 Dead, including Special Infected and Horde tactics. Close doors to survive.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As you enter the kitchen, dispatch of any Infected (common zombie-like enemies).
  2. 2
    Keep your eyes peeled for any Special Infected (more dangerous, unique Infected), such as Hunters, Smokers, and Boomers.
  3. 3
    If you hear a dramatic change in the music, that may symbolize the arrival of the Horde (a large wave of Infected).
  4. 4
    They like to burst through the wall in the room past the kitchen.
Tips
  • Closing doors behind you as you progress through levels is imperative.
  • If you can wedge yourself in a closet or tight space with a door during a crescendo event (a timed wave of Infected), you'll likely take less damage.
