If you’ve played R.E.P.O., you’ve probably run into the Gnome—a tiny, relentless nightmare that follows you around, deals just enough damage to be annoying, and generally exists to ruin your day. The real problem? They never stop spawning. No matter how many you get rid of, more will show up to take their place. It’s an endless, gnome-infested cycle of pain.
Why Are Gnomes Infinite?
Because life isn’t fair. These pint-sized stalkers respawn indefinitely, meaning no matter how many you drop, throw, or smash, more will always show up. Worse, they don’t just wander around aimlessly—they actively hunt you down, grab flammable objects to chuck at your face, and even destroy the valuables you’re trying to escape with.
To make things even more fun, they can spawn in groups, which means if one isn’t enough of a problem, you’ll soon be dealing with a full-on gnome swarm.
How to Deal with Infinite Gnomes
Since killing them is only a temporary solution, you’ll need to get creative. Here’s how to keep the chaos under control:
Pick them up and drop them – The easiest way to get rid of a gnome is to just grab it and let gravity do the work. Dropping them from any height will instantly eliminate them—until their replacement arrives, of course.
Use Gnome-on-Gnome violence – If you’re being mobbed, pick up one gnome and slam it into another. This will take out both in one hit, making you an honorary member of the Gnome Fight Club.
Use a Gnome as a melee weapon – Yes, you can grab one and smack another with it. Turns out, gnomes don’t like being used as blunt objects. Who knew?
Stay on the move – Standing still makes you an easy target, and if you let too many gnomes pile up, you’ll be slowly nibbled to death while a much bigger threat sneaks up on you.
Final Blurb
The bad news? Gnomes are infinite. The good news? They’re small, throwable, and surprisingly effective weapons against each other. Just remember—no matter how many you drop, more will always appear, so stay on your toes and be ready to deal with an endless wave of pint-sized chaos.
