How long was your first playthrough?

[Bi Bi Sadako]

My first game ended on day 34, in the middle of a crime wave. Pavle kept getting attacked in the night, and Bruno was killed in a raid. My other crew members left with basically everything I owned, hence me needing to go somewhere dangerous.

25 days.. Then someone killed Pavle, the other ♥♥♥♥♥ killed herself cause she missed place, and I just gave up with just one character

[Not So Serious]

45 days.
Pavle got sick and wounded near the beginning of winter, but survived the entire season lying in bed. After winter ended, I went 15 days of everyone depressed, very hungry, and wounded, before Pavle left, Katia died in a raid, and Bruno killed himself all within the span of the last 2 days

[Pivke]

26 days
some day i went to church with Katia she got attacked and severe wounded. than i made a break, when i continued my play 2 other members were severly wounded & broken for no reason XD than things went down hill fast. i had to kill peoples for bandages, Pavle died to wounds. Emilie left my group and robbed me blind, Katia left next day. and i only got left with Bruno who got killed next day on scavenging part.

45 days, about 8 hours of gameplay, Two dead, two guys made it. First casualty was Pavle, he died in a fight. I had no clue how the fights worked before I got into one. Live and learn, right? Well that worked out... And then Roman, he got in minor fight, made it out with few scratches and died 10 days, infected wound, slow and horrific death and the smell...

[Bad Whippet]

Wow - I thought I'd done well to last 16 days!

Dammit! Try it again.....

I survived 42 days. The winter makes me need to steal from hospital and the old couple, and in 3 days all the survivor was broken. They can't even walk to eat or take medication, and all of them dies within 2 days.

I managed to survive my first playthrough. I can't recall what day the war ended as I don't enjoy playing that starting group so I haven't since my first completion. I have had games last over 40 days and games that ended on day 26.

[Mad_Maxima]

24 days. Bruno died on a supply run. So did the new girl, so quickly after she joined us that I can't even remember her name. Anton stole our ♥♥♥♥ and left. Katia had enough of this BS and offed herself and then Pavle died of his wounds.

I wish I hadn't read this discussion now though! The war ends?? Clearly I suck and must try harder. :P

[Rabid Donkey]

My first playthough was 42 days. I didn't know what I was doing and everything went to Hell at about day 20 or 21. I ended up having only 2 survivors left at the end (Bruno and Cveta). I wasn't sure if I could hang on much longer than that. So I was kind of relieved it was over lol

My second playthrough I was ready and I was doing very well. Had alcohol for trade, had enough food for the group, and everyone was either content or didn't have any negative effects on them... Was about to do a run for some parts to make the reinforced door... then on day 25 I get the war has ended message... I was mad! I wanted to keep going...

[Breaking Gaia]

The first time I played Bruno was deathly ill when it started so when the hospital became available, I took him there for pills. While searching around I didn't realize that I stole something and that guard got in his face and I accidently hit him with the ax. Bruno died the next day and everyone else was wounded from a raid that night. Lasted 13 days.

What gets me is that sometimes there are lots of one material and not others. My second game literally had no food. The only time I could get food was through trade. The third time I had so much canned food, 17 cans, that I was trading it for components because there were none. LOL

[BombThatDeadGuy]

45 days i got everyone out alive which was a accomplishment I thought impossible at first. Katia, Bruno, Pavel, and Marin all survived but i didn't account for sadness in their endings. So all 4 had pretty depressing endings basically telling to "do better next time"

Now I have a game with Bruno, Roman, Arica, and Cveta i think that is their names spelled right. And it is up in the air on whether or not this playthrough will go better.

surviving the war gives the only positive endings AFAIK. the ending might not be as positive as youd hope

Actually, if youd survive, and stay in good shape, you get happier endings for the characters.

The goal is to survive. You do that - they'll get over their depression.

Starting with only 1 character (but 2 more characters joined later) I could play until 17th day. My 3 deaths were because I did not know the fight mechanics and my 3 characters were killed fighting ;(
