7 Days to Die

A good survival simulator in the open world was developed for lovers of the survival horror genre by The Fun Pimps. The action "7 Days to Die" takes place in a practically destroyed world, invaded by zombies. Therefore, the main task of the hero is not only to defend, but also to collect resources, erect buildings for protection.

Storyline

The plot is very simple: enemies attack, the hero defends. The events unfold in 2034, many years after the terrible cataclysm that turned people into zombies. Cities and villages are dead, only a handful of people are fighting for the right to survive. The hero with a small amount of things is pushed out on an area full of evil spirits, and his main task is not to let himself be devoured. Or kill, which is essentially the same thing.

The main focus is on the process itself, and it is quite interesting. If in most games dedicated to the zombie apocalypse, the main task is to shoot the undead, running through mazes or dungeons, then here you also need to think about protecting the territory, growing crops, getting food.

Simply put, "7 Days to Die" skillfully combines crafting, looting, looting, world exploration, and the ability to improve your character in a completely new way.

Features of the game "7 Days to Die"

In search of food and valuable things, it is worth exploring abandoned cities, and resources for creating weapons, traps and buildings can be obtained from nature itself. The most difficult thing is to survive the first day, since it is still possible to run away from evil spirits during the day, but at night they become very impudent and climb ahead. Therefore, those who do not take care of a sheltered overnight stay are unlikely to be lucky to survive until the morning.

How to do it? There are many hiding places and valuable items on the map, and if you stock up well, then it is quite possible to get out. First you need:

• food and water;
• torches;
• bow and arrow;
• stone ax;
• clothing;
• sleeping bag.

If you are very lucky, you can also find a pistol with a couple of cartridges. Since not only zombies are eager to try the player's teeth, but also other creatures, which in nature are more than enough. So in the first hours the player needs to actively collect items and skillfully craft, for some things you will also have to get blueprints.

What can help you survive in 7 Days to Die?

In short, the task is this - during the day we collect resources and build, at night we beat off the raids of enemies. After equipping, you should think about protective structures, construction will go on in real time. The simplest buildings are assembled on the basis of a frame, but they can be improved with wood and cobblestones. Special blocks for the fort will be available later.

There are many factors to consider during construction. For example, objects can simply fall apart if there is no good support or some of the materials are much heavier than others. And in order not to bring the house down on your head, you should clearly think about how, where and from what to build.

Resources and Plants

The player has access to many recipes on how to extract resources from plants, wood and metal for devices and weapons. At least it is quite possible to build a knife, crossbow or hammer, as well as repair them with the right skill. By the way, the developers have greatly simplified the search for resources. If in the previous game, in order to get hold of lead, you had to find veins, then dig deep for a long time in order to stumble upon a valuable vein. In the new game, you do not need to suffer so much, the presence of a valuable resource will be immediately visible. On the surface, in addition to the usual ones, there are also special stones that clearly indicate where and what to look for.

The player will have to think about food supplies, here plants and animals will help. For example, you can plant seeds and grow a vegetable, or hunt wild animals. So the bow and arrow are a must.

Tips from Experienced Gamers:

• Constantly create or repair weapons, armor, tools, vehicles.
• Ruins can be captured for development or rebuilt from scratch.
• Be sure to place traps or defensive positions around the fortress.

Modes in "7 Days to Die"

At first, when there is nothing to fend off the zombies, the smartest solution is to quietly flee away. Undead are able to catch the smell of a person or objects from his equipment, so you need to move quietly. You can also distract enemies by throwing stones in the opposite direction.

Fighting off zombies is much more convenient in a company, so support for up to 4 players online is allowed. But there are some complications here, since there is no guarantee that other participants will not want to take the loot or smoke from the fort. Therefore, it is safer to invite friends. The game includes several modes:

• Player versus player.
• Collaborative survival.
• Co-creation.
• Cooperative.

Gamers celebrate good crafting in "7 Days to Die", and various zombies do not let you get bored. The developers also brought out the atmosphere correspondingly. Although the graphics are more of a disadvantage, the players would like a clearer and more realistic layout in the pictures. But it is always interesting to pass a kind of survival test. At the very least, it will unlock completely unknown strategic and tactical abilities of the participant, which is already a lot.
