In before vape comment . <| sep |> I ' d recommend it . It ' s pretty fun , the mechanics are actually cool , like you can scrap through a heap of junk to get through a room , while finding something within it . You can find something inside a cupboard , but you need to pick the lock first . First , you play controlling 3 named characters initially , each with their own expertise selfdefense , cooking , etc . You ' ll be staying in one place the whole game , and that place is like your home , your safe zone . You can pass through the night by sleeping on the floor , or if you crafted it , you can assign someone to sleep on a bed . Someone might occasionally come , which can be your fourth character . It ' s good to have extra members , but be reminded that the more people you had with you , the more mouths you have to feed . Sometimes a merchant may come too , offering a selection of items you can buy . Or sometimes a looter comes to kill a person that comes to open the door . How do you survive then ? You need to get outside the house , and you can go to other houses , or looted supermarkets like Fallout ' s Super Duper Mart . You can choose one of all your members to go out , others stay . If you go to other houses , you may meet a couple that ' s been struggling like you too , and you can choose whether you want to leave them as is , steal to take what they have , or kill them to take what they have . In supermarkets , it ' s filled with looters , who will shoot you in sight . And the character could die , like , forever in that playthrough . And the player ' s vision will be shifted to the ones back home , who is mourning the one who went outside and died during the night before . The game allows you to peek through a lock to see if there ' s anyone behind a door , so you can actually check whether you are safe upon entering , or end up with a bullet on your head . There are weapons in the game , but even a soldier can run out of ammo , let alone a civilian . You can melee of course , or restrain someone from behind if you intend to be silent . You might as well always be so , because the bandits in the game is unforgiving . If they can see you , then you ' re already dead actually you can still run but I don ' t want to miss the chance for that Riki quote . But I advise you be careful , because the game can get depressing . Really , it ' s a different feeling than your usual horrorsurvival game . I actually had stopped playing the moment the guy I was using to scavenge through a supermarket died . I just can ' t take the sadness . Haven ' t played since then . The game ' s theme is just , hard to take . But that doesn ' t make it a bad game . Look at the reviews , Overwhelmingly Positive .
