The Giant Flea is a passive enemy that appears in Serious Sam: Double D and Serious Sam: Double D: XXL.
Overview[]
The Giant Flea is an abnormally large flea-like alien creature with a green shell, an orange underbelly and a pink sock on one of his hind legs. Its green shell is strong enough that it can reflect fireballs tossed by a volcano without harming it. However, its underbelly is a weak spot, and it can be killed by shooting it enough with powerful weapons.
It is unknown why they were bought to Earth or if they are even a part of Mental's forces.
The Giant Flea is very rare, and only appears in Fireball Fury.
Behavior and skills[]
The Giant Flea is harmless and will not attack the player, even when they come into contact with it.
Tactics[]
- Don't kill the Giant Flea whenever it is found. It is essential for crossing the large fireballs in the level it appears in without losing a lot of health or being killed.
- Enemies that spawn in cannot harm the Flea, so the player doesn't need to protect it while fighting off other enemies.
- If the player wants to kill a Giant Flea for the Exterminator Sam achievement, gunstacks with powerful weapons such as the LM32 Rocket Launcher work best. It has a large amount of health, so a gunstack filled with powerful weapons is needed to bring it down in a reasonable amount of time. The Giant Flea will never fight back, so the player can kill it without retaliation.
