You can hunt wildlife with shovels
You can throw them like spears
You can swing them like a bat
You can clear an entire outpost with only a shovel
You can get a perk that allows you to carry, I am not kidding here, 9 shovels
My shovels thrown per minute, (or STPM) is honestly insane
There is also something about a cult and you need to save people, look the point is there is no better game that allows you to shovel your way to the end as good as what i have played so far.
