Today’s game is Unturned. I feel like this game has a pretty decent presence on the internet, but just to be safe, unturned is a Free Zombie survival game. It’s got some low budget graphics, but being free it’s got a surprising amount of depth to it I feel like. The developer supports it still from time to time, though I’m unsure if that’s including Major updates.
Nonetheless, I set up a server for me and my friends to play on. It was a surprisingly easy process, there’s a wiki out there walking me through it, and while it did require quite a bit of command line stuff I eventually got it set up.

The initial start is definitely the hardest part. It’s no Zomboid but if you get cocky you will probably die. I had issues with getting bit and bleeding to death, so definitely keep rags on you at all times. And don’t be like me and fill your inventory completely with weapons. You’ll be well armed but if you get hungry or injured it’s gonna be a bad time. It felt kind of like trying to get a grip on an icy cliff. Really hard but once you get up there you aren’t gonna fall down unless you start being stupid.

Me and my friend spent a while trying to meet up. We eventually ran into each other but split apart again after he started building a base and I went into Moscow for supplies. I found a bike I took into town, but it ran out of gas part way through and I had to walk around town.
Remember my advice about not getting cocky? Yeah. I learned that the hard way. It was a blood moon and I stabbed a zombie, pissed another one off and then had 6 more on me all while I was bleeding out. I died and dropped all my stuff. That was when I got off because I had a friend asking to play Stardew Valley.
Overall I think it’s a good time. Definitely better multiplayer, then again there is a bit of fun to be had single player, I know i definitely had a lot growing up.

Ah, I loved playing this game back in 2016/2017 and I played it a lot. At one point I got so addicted that I decided to go for a 30 hour session because I didn't want to stop and I started getting hallucinations. Fun times. I'm really disappointed though on the direction the game ended up taking. It went full on pvp and no survival updates or any core features really. At one point there was unturned 2 in the works and it looked very exciting because it was overhauled in just about the way that kept the spirit that made me fall in love within the unturned. Sadly, the dev was going through stuff and burned out and the project got dropped few years back, :( . But at least there's something else exciting on the horizon which is the dev preparing to make the current game open source. But I've barely touched the game in years (or other games in general) and only learn stuff through steam announcements so I don't know the current state of things much.
