Last Day on Earth - Tips, Tricks, and Cheats

Scavenging
One of the first things you should do when you spawn in Last Day on Earth
On the bottom left corner, there’s an “auto” button that’s particularly useful when it comes to scavenging. By activating the auto button, you’ll prompt your character to scavenge items in the area on their own without you needing to guide them and click the “grab” button.
By gathering items, you’ll not only be able to level up your character, but you’ll also have the materials needed to craft items like a Hatchet or Pickaxe.
Crafting

Once you’ve mastered the art of scavenging in Last Day on Earth, you’ll need to make use of your crafting abilities. One of the best things to craft is a home. This can be done by tapping the construction button below your mini map.
After you click the button, a grid will open up and building options will appear down at the bottom. To craft a home, you’ll need to put down flooring first, then walls. Each floor and wall
To make your home functional, you’ll need to craft items such as a Campfire, Small Box (which lets you store 12 items), and a Garden Bed (which lets you grow carrots that bump up your food supply).
Exploration

With scavenging, crafting, and home building out of the way, the next step towards mastering Last Day on Earth is exploration. After you reach level 2, you’ll be able to craft a Basic Backpack which expands your inventory by 8 item spaces.
Before you craft the Basic Backpack, you’re reliant on your jacket which has limited amounts of storage space. Until you craft a Basic Backpack, you should stick inside the green safe area.
Once your Basic Backpack is crafted and you’re ready to head out, you’ll want to pay attention to the location indicator above an area which tells you the “density” of that area. The higher the density, the more
Unfortunately, high-density areas also contain more zombies, many of whom are tougher than the ones you’ll encounter in your green safe spawn area. Until you craft better weapons and armor, you’ll want to keep yourself within green safe areas (basically, don’t wander too far).
Army Drops and Military Bases

While playing Last Day on Earth, you’ll likely encounter army supply crate drops and Military Bases. Both of these are Points of Interest in Last Day on Earth. Points such as supply crate drops are time sensitive and will disappear after a set amount of time.
If you’re able, you’ll want to hunt these crates down in order to snag some high-quality loot. In addition, you’ll encounter Military Bases which are fixed Points of Interest (meaning they don’t disappear).
You’ll need a Security Key Card in order to explore these Military Bases, and you can typically acquire one from dead zombies and/or players. Inside these Military Bases are supplies and valuable resources (like weapons) so also try and explore them if you’re able.
Combat

Combat in Last Day on Earth is unavoidable. All around you are dangerous zombies as well as hostile players. In order to survive in Last Day on Earth, you’ll need to be prepared for a fight at all times. One of the first weapons you can craft is a Spear.
This weapon is rather
While Crouched, you’re harder to spot. Use this to your advantage and move up behind an enemy before swinging. This will result in a deadly strike, one that may instantly kill lesser enemies like zombies and other new (unprepared) players.
To avoid excess combat (in the event you’re injured) pay attention to your minimap. If you spot a red dot heading straight for you, run. This blip is either a Fast Biter or enemy player.
Because you don’t know which one you’re dealing with, you’ll want to circle around and sneak attack them, or let them be and head in a different direction.
Leveling Up

Finally, when leveling up is crucial to mastering Last Day on Earth. The higher your level, the better your
As such, try and reach level 10 as quickly as possible. Why level 10? Well, at level 10 you can craft your first set of basic armor. This is essential, as it’ll keep you alive for much longer than wandering about naked.
