First Day Survival

Survive your first day in 7 Days to Die by gathering resources, crafting tools like the Stone Axe, and finding shelter before zombies attack.

Your first day in 7 Days to Die is critical. You'll spawn with nothing but a few basic tools and a quest. Immediately gather resources like wood, stone, and plant fibers. Craft a Stone Axe and a Wooden Club. Find a safe, temporary shelter before nightfall, as zombies become more aggressive and numerous after dark. Prioritize food and water.
