There *IS* some strategy to this achievement. If you play it smart, it's much easier to accomplish. Open up the Doctor's Hut and the Fish Hut, leave the zip line platform down by the Doctor's Hut, and make sure all windows in both buildings are fully repaired. Save up at least 4250 points at the start of the round, and then go hang out in the Doctor's Hut. When the round starts, turn on the electric fence (1000 points) and watch the windows until the fence goes off. At that point, run out to the zip line and take it up to the main building (1500 points). Now run down stairs, past the flogger, and turn it on from the other side (750 points), then continue on to the fish hut, shooting any zombies in your path. Once you get there, turn on the last electric fence (1000 points) and bask in the glow of your achievement.

The biggest benefit of using this particular path is that you NEVER have to run through any swamp (which slows you to a crawl), and your path remains almost entirely clear of any zombies (when you take the zip line to the main building you leave most zombies behind you in the Doctor's swamp, and activating the flogger behind you prevents anything from sneaking up behind you before you make it to the fish hut).

There are really only 3 likely places where you could die. #1- inside the Doctor's Quarters while the fence is on (keep an eye on the windows and make sure you don't get swarmed before the fence turns off). #2- at the door to the Doctor's. This is the toughest part- once the fence goes off, you need to somehow make your way past the zombies at the entrance and to the zip line. #3- the path to the fish hut. This is usually very sparsely populated thanks to your trick with the zip line, so be alert. It'd be a shame to die after you've already come so close.

I have been playing Shi No Numa nonstop since it was released. Using this strategy me and my friends achieved wave 23 the third time any of us played it. Every other following game we have played has gotten us somewhere in the 20's.

Required:
1. 4 players (recommended to be friends).
2. Have to have Juggernaut and Slight of Hand as soon as these machines appear and Quick Revive if everyone can afford it (do not buy double tap, it runs through ammo quicker and will leave you in a bad situation).
3. Always have the person with the most points open doors/move obstacles etc.
4. When the box moves look to the sky for a green light, follow it to the box.

Weapons Recommended:
Ray Gun
MG-42
Browning M1919
Wunderwuffe DG-2
PP-Sh 41

If Someone Gets Downed:
Have the person with Quick Revive come and have one or both other people cover them while being revived. It would be best for that person to watch a window for the rest of the match instead of watching the door.


Waves 1-3:
Beginning on these waves do not kill the zombies when they are outside the windows and do not buy a gun. Position a person at each window. Put 6 shots into each zombie before coming inside. After they come in knife them (or shoot if you wish) until they die. On these waves they tend to drop the Nuke and Double Points a lot which really helps.

Waves 3 and up:
After wave 3 open the stairs (I will explain later why the door needs to be closed) and go to the box. Make sure at least 2 people get an SMG. Now when the dogs come there is a small curve and a window by the box, have everyone sit with their backs against the wall in that corner and kill the dogs (try and have 2 people shooting and when they stop to reload have the other 2 shoot).After the last dog is killed it will always drop a max ammo, do not take the max ammo until everyone has reloaded their weapons (try and apply this to all max ammo's if possible). After this wave the box will most probably move to another room. Have everyone run to the room and keep 2 people guarding the door and 1 at each window (if the room has 3 windows which 2/4 do, then just have 1 person that can handle 2 windows). At the end of the round try and have 1 person at a window keep a zombie outside and keep repairing it to give everyone enough time to get weapons, ammo, etc. Now depending on the weapon each person gets tells where they will be. Whoever gets the MG's will need to guard the door and the others at the windows. Now if the box happens to move to 1 of the 2 rooms with 3 windows at a higher wave it will probably be easier to go to the box at the end of the wave with a zombie being held at a window. If the box relocates to the main building this is the strategy to hold up there (this is why you opened the stairs and not the door after wave 3). There is a set of stairs by the Flogger Trap that you can go up and the box could be up there. Being you didn't open the big door there are only 2 windows and the stairs that need to be watched over. Have someone active the zipline so the you can have it as a quick getaway just in case you get overrun. Now, keep 1 person at each window and 2 in front of the stairs. This is a good place to camp out although the 2 small buildings (Doctor's Quarters and the Comm Room) are the best being they only have 2 windows. Try and have the person with the most points to keep trying to get the box moved from the main building if they can afford it. The goal is pretty much to stay as close to the box as you possible can while also being safe. Doing this will guarantee you to get to a high level wave once everyone understands the concept of the strategy.

I think the clue was when we all said "Lets go to another hut and get a different perk". lol
