Areas with more valuable resources are either inhabited or defended, while the safer places yield less.

Locations include abandoned squallers, schools, hospitals, churches and more. All of this is reliant on having the appropriate resources, which are gathered at night when a character can be sent to scavenge while the others sleep or stand guard. Like a grim version of The Sims, players click around to move characters and on icons to assign tasks such as making food, building, clearing rubble, rifling through resource points or administering aid-either medicinal or moral.
