A Cry for Helpdesk - Level 1 is the first level of the A Cry for Helpdesk event in Penny's Pursuit. It has bonus objectives and zombie swaps, just like any other Penny's Pursuit level.

Difficulty

ZCorp Consultant and the newly introduced ZCorp HelpDesk can make an devastating combo as soon as HelpDesk touches the ground. With Consultant also making dangerous zombies such as All-Star Zombie switch lanes, she, along with any nearby zombies should be defeated before they are dispersed. HelpDesk on the other hand, should be defeated while hanging, as his laptop will damage zombies instead if killed that way.

Difficulty Swaps

In Penny's Pursuit, the zombies in a level can swap depending on the difficulty chosen.
