I wonder if its possible to get powerful enough to beat those char guys...
If you hit first with a shotgun, they'll usually go down in one shot.

To bad they always shoot first :/

Edit:
When you open their doors that is.
Found on of their buildings stormed by zombies.
I'm a bit dissapointed, that there only is regular stuff in there...

Edit2:
Oh well I was wrong.
Got some nice body armor, weapons and med kits.

I always end up finding them roaming the streets.
How do you find the grocery stores?
All I get is apartments and stuff, and hardly any food.

Look in shopping districts, like described in the first post.

It's an interesting game but it would be nice if there was a goal to work towards beside generally surviving, escape, creating a safezone, destroying a big bad, etc.

Actually i like that the only goal is to survive as long as possible. There are tons of games that let you save the world and be a hero. As i understood the manual, the supplies are limited and they will run out eventually so you cant go forever.
That said, there could be a way to escape. Like after a month a evac helicopter randomly spawning for short periods of time at different places or something...

Merf, more the reason for me to change my rogue-like project. Someone's already doing something similar to what I was doing.

But every part of my city ends up being business.

That must be a weird RNG.

There're shops which have glass doors as the only exit (so they can be your deathtrap) of different types, including grocery shops, gun shops, carpentry shops, G.C. and maybe some others, I don't remember.

Sounds like bad luck. I usually start in a shopping district :D. Stores have grey walls.

Too many exits for my taste... I personally prefer to max firearms first because it makes you to save much more ammo. I am totally not a fun of the melee.

Every single store in this district was fire arms or construction.
Then I found this place:

The ONLY grocery store in the city.
And it is mine and that guys, 2 layers of shelves and a barricaded door should keep us safe.
I don't even mind sharring with that guy because there's enough food to last a while.
I barricaded him into a group of store shelves to the left of his current aisle, he is stuck in a 3x3 so it would look like:
XXX
XHX
XXX
X=shelve
H=human/him

Turns out I have 10 bags left, hopefully that is enough to last until the store hopefully respawns food.
and I can't find the save/exit button...

I'd build a barricade around him, starve him to death, keep all the food for yourself while he sleeps!

Do grocery stores respawn food?

So I'm currently a black guy running for my life. I had an ally, but he's gone now. I can't seem to find any stores, though.
