Today’s game is Zomboid. I’m finding it hard to let go of Dead Money (fully intended). Me and my friend continued the story of Cable and Jerry tonight instead.
We camped out in this house we found, made some steak, and I went searching for a car. I was jumped by maybe 10 zombies outside a police station and managed to find the key and get in and loot it. So we’re set on guns for now. I also found a Ranger Truck to drive, but on my way back my friend got bit. I had to put him down and he respawned.
I walked to the other side of town because the truck was low on gas and we bumped into each other when I was searching for a car to pick him up in. We went on a brief walk through town trying to find a gas can to siphon gas. We didn’t find one but we did find a Van with a key in it (had to break the window to get at it though) and a Van with a full tank. I used bottles to Siphon gas out if the one with a tank and we started the car and drove home from that little adventure.
(Bonus pic of me standing over My Friend/Jerry’s Son Cable’s Corpse after putting him down (he put his clothes away so he would be able to find them after respawning))
Some day I need to actually give this a go beyond what I played originally. I haven’t played this since the alpha days forever ago, and it looked like it had a lot of potential, but I didn’t have the patience. I think I helped fund it through their own site to play the super early build and then got the steam key from that when it released a long time after.
It’s way more fun with friends. I have a lot of fun by myself though trying to survive and see how far I can make it. Somewhere down the line they plan to (re)add NPCs so that should liven things up too
