What are Lackeys in Killer Klowns from Outer Space?

Killer Klowns from Outer Space throws a variety of unique mechanics as soon as you start playing, and an important one is Lackeys. Whether you are playing as a human or a clown, you will see these lackeys walking around, which can be confusing. This guide will explain what Lackeys do in Killer Klowns from Outer Space and how to spawn them.

What do Lackeys do in Killer Klowns from Outer Space?

Lackeys are essential helpers for klowns who do a few different things, but they are mainly there to attack humans and alert you about their locations when they see them.

Another thing Lackeys are great for is carrying cotton candy cocoons, which saves you a ton of time that you can use to go after more humans instead of wasting it on carrying and hooking cocoons.

How to spawn and use Lackeys in Killer Klowns from Outer Space

To spawn a Lackey or a few of them, all you have to do is hook up cotton cocoons on their stations. This works for both the cotton candy cocoons you find on the map and the humans you turn into cocoons. When you hook one, you will get a notification after some time saying that a Lackey has spawned.

Once you finally spawn Lackeys, they will automatically start attacking humans when they see them and alert you about their locations. However, when it comes to carrying cocoons, you have to assign Lackeys to do that manually. Here is how it's done.

How to make your Lackeys carry the Cotton Candy Cocoon in Killer Klowns from Outer Space

First, you want to turn a human into a cotton candy cocoon and then go near a Lackey, where you will see a prompt above them with a cocoon and a checkmark. When you see it, drop the cocoon on the ground, and your lackey will carry it to its destination. If you don't see a checkmark, drop the cocoon and pick it up again, as it seems to work.
