Project Zomboid

✦ how this world plays

• Slow burn. Zombie population starts light (0.8×) and peaks around day 28 (1.2×), then holds.
• Cleared stays cleared. No respawns — but zombies migrate, so nowhere is truly safe forever.
• Scavenge to survive. No loot respawn, rare loot. You'll range farther as the weeks pass.
• Death is permanent. Full skill loss on death — play careful, plan escapes.
• Second chances at home. Safehouse respawning is on; sleep is allowed, not required.
• The clock only ticks when you're there. The world pauses while no one is online.
• The lights go out. Water and power fail at some random point in the first month.
