1. Secure Resources Responsibly
In any survival game, resources are the lifeline of the players, so whenever they get a chance to collect any resources they should grab them as they are finite. It is necessary to remember that any loot however common it may is always worth something so simply avoiding it and moving on is not an option.
One of the most important things to learn in the game is which container has what loot. Not only does this information help find the required resources faster but also helps in making the decision faster, never knowing what is lurking in the shadows.

2Spend Skill Points Efficiently
At the start of the player’s journey, they will earn fewer skill points, making them more important than most resources (in the early stage). To get the most from each skill point, consider always use them on the skills that will improve the survival chances of the players.

The recommended use of the skills point in the early stage would be on essential skills like cooking, forging (weapons and armor), and even learning transportation skills helps in the long run. If players feel they can survive efficiently, they canspend some skill points on personal preferences as well.
3. Be Aware of the Time Cycle
The day and night cycle in7 Days to Dieplays a significant role in the survival of the players. The cycle not only facilitates which resources are available in various areas but also influences the movement of the undead.
you should always travel in the daytime as zombies are slower and fighting them would be easier. In the night-time, players should focus on forging and making their base more well-structured and secure against enemy attacks. Maintaining this not only helps in keeping up the trader’s quest but also makes sure that players are always aware of their base resources.

4Always Build a Base Near Traders
One of the most important parts of the game is base building as it not only provides a safe area in the night but also allows players to store their resources. When making bases, there are many factors that influence the decision to place the base. It isusually recommended to create a base near tradersas it allows players to complete the quest faster and also helps in trading goods as well.
