Story [edit]

The game's events happen during backwash of a nuclear 3rd World State of war that destroyed an extremely big office of the globe, except for some areas such every bit the fictional canton of Navezgane, Arizona. The thespian is a survivor of the war who must survive by finding shelter, food and water, too as scavenging supplies to fend off the numerous zombies (hinted to be the consequence of nuclear fallout, a new strain of flu, or both) that populate Navezgane. Though there is no real objective except surviving at this moment, the developers promised a dynamic storyline in the Kickstarter and stretch goals. The video with more explanation has since been removed by the developer.[5]

Gameplay [edit]

In 7 Days to Die, the thespian spawns into a randomly-generated earth or the preset globe of Navezgane, Arizona, with the objective of surviving for equally long as possible confronting the elements and the zombie hordes. Every bit a survival game, the thespian graphic symbol is in abiding need of water and food for sustenance, besides as being vulnerable to injury and affliction. The game is voxel-based (similar in some aspects to Minecraft, but with smooth terrain), assuasive for simple building and destruction of objects in a physics-fake surround (for example, building a structure with no back up such as pillars and walls tin lead to its collapse).[six] [vii] Objects in the world degrade through use, and so the player has to search for or brand new tools as the game progresses. The player can also gather and create materials—from nature and the remnants of homo culture—to construct these necessary items.[8] [9]

While the game includes wildlife that can be hunted for nutrient or will hunt the player, the main risk is zombies, which are affected by the game'due south 24-hour interval/night cycle—during the mean solar day they are relatively slow-moving and easy targets that can only detect the player at relatively shut ranges, but at nighttime they go feral, which makes them move much faster and thus greatly increases their threat. Equally the in-game days progress, tougher and more aggressive variants brainstorm to appear.[10] Stealth and distraction can exist used to avoid unnecessary disharmonize. They are too drawn to areas of human (i.e. actor) action, and will relentlessly attack anything that impedes their movement until they are killed or the obstacle is destroyed, including player-congenital fortifications. Should they detect the thespian, zombies will apply the same unmarried-minded pursuit until the thespian is either dead, or leaves the firsthand expanse.

The game's title is a reference to an important Blood Moon event that occurs every seventh day of in-game time, whereby hordes of zombies and wild infected animals assault the player'southward current location en masse. Unless sufficient grooming has been made and defenses constructed, the histrion will quickly be overwhelmed.

The world of Navezgane is composed of multiple biomes, or geographic areas. These include dry out deserts, temperate forests, snowy fields, as well as a scorched wasteland. Each biome has unique resource that can exist obtained, thus encouraging exploration beyond the map by players.
