Survive the Nights: Preparation is Everything

Survive the Nights is a unique take on the zombie survival genre that prioritizes realism and strategy over mindless action. Unlike "run-and-gun" shooters, this game forces you to focus on the "Survival" part of the title. During the day, you scavenge for supplies, manage your calories, and fortify existing structures. When the sun goes down, the game transforms into a tense siege experience where your previous hours of labor are put to the ultimate test. It captures the gritty, slow-burn atmosphere of a true apocalypse where a single mistake or a lack of fuel for your generator can be fatal.

Key Features Defining the Experience

• Structure Fortification: Use planks, nails, and found materials to secure any house or building in the world. Turn a simple shed into a safehouse.

• Complex Metabolism: Manage calories, hydration, and nutrition. Finding a can of peaches is a major victory; finding a working stove to cook raw meat is a game-changer.

• Electricity & Lighting: Repair and refuel generators to power interior lights and appliances. A well-lit house is a safer house, but noise from the generator may attract unwanted attention.

• Mental Health System: Your actions have consequences. Living in the dark or committing acts of violence will negatively impact your character's sanity, causing tremors or auditory hallucinations.

• Vehicle Restoration: Vehicles aren't just sitting there ready to drive. You’ll need to find batteries, tires, and fuel, turning a rusted van into a mobile fortress and storage unit.

• Dynamic Weather & Seasons: Survive harsh winters that require proper clothing and heating, or rainstorms that dampen your visibility and affect your character's temperature.

How to Install and Survive Your First Night

1. Purchase & Download: Secure the game via your preferred PC game storefront and download the roughly 15 GB client.

2. Server Selection: For your first game, it is recommended to join a "Low Population" server to learn the mechanics without constant player interference.

3. Find a Tool: Your first priority is finding a melee weapon or a tool (like a hammer or crowbar) to defend yourself and start scavenging.

4. Secure a Base: Before dusk, find a house with at least one intact room. Board up the windows and stay quiet. Sound travels far in the dead of night.
