Brief Items Guide
[h3]< Overview >[/h3]
This guide provides essential survival knowledge for Survivors who have recently joined NAKWON.
This section will briefly showcase Items.
[h3]< Different Types of Items >[/h3]
There are four different types of Items you can see during your stay in NAKWON.
Inevitably, the better the performance of Gear, the rarer and more expensive it is.
There are different types of Gear, which are explained as follows:
Empty Bottles or Bricks that you can commonly get on the street can be thrown to lure Zombies with the sound, hit cars and set off the alarms, or hit humans or Zombies directly.
However, as the damage is weak, they’re not proper to fight against Zombies.
Use them for a short distraction while running away, but keep in mind that the sounds of breaking bottles or bricks can trigger Zombies nearby.
Aside from those there are smoke bombs and firecrackers.
Smoke bombs create smoke for a short period and block Zombies’ and other Survivors’ vision.
Zombies can barely find Survivors when they’re in the smoke.
If you have enough money, we recommend using a smoke bomb to obscure your Escape Route and make it to safety.
Firecrackers make a huge sound and lure all Zombies nearby, but they are quite difficult to use, and we don’t recommend them for novice Survivors.
These items vary from as little as a piece of cloth to as much as a generator or batteries, or even a laptop that can be repaired.
If you bring back these items, the NAKWON Shops will purchase them from you at a suitable price.
The currency in NAKWON can be used again in NAKWON Shops to purchase various equipment and consumables needed for Survival.
[h3]< Tips to make Money >[/h3]
If you made a lot of money, that means you have contributed a great deal to NAKWON.
The way you contribute to NAKWON is ultimately by bringing rare resources that NAKWON needs.
The Scouting location, Jongno 3-ga area, still has numerous resources left.
Of course, locations where you can go about easily barely have any resources lying around, but indoors where there is a high risk, or areas where you need keys to access, still have an abundance of resources waiting to be found.
For example, a recent report stated that there are various Items in the Lost and Found Center on the 2nd Floor of the Police Station.
But when we got there, the door was locked and we couldn’t break it down, so the scouts had to come back.
If you can get the key to the Lost and Found Center, you might even make a fortune.
Scout inside various buildings and find hidden Items.
There are a lot of concealed items, and you have the chance to find them.
We wish you good luck.

- [h3]Gear[/h3]
Inevitably, the better the performance of Gear, the rarer and more expensive it is.
There are different types of Gear, which are explained as follows:
- Weapons
Weapons are largely divided into blunt weapons and lethal weapons, but we recommend blunt weapons for all Survivors.
Edged tools such as knives are effective against living human beings, but not against Zombies.
As Zombies are indifferent to pain, they will continue to attack even through being slashed.
If you plan to use knives, you’ll have to avoid all the attacks from Zombies when fighting against them.
This is very difficult even for proficient Survivors.
Blunt weapons can block Zombies’ attacks through impact.
It won’t be too hard to go up against Zombies even with the standard 2x4 that can be easily picked up on the street.
For novice Survivors, we recommend avoiding Zombies rather than fighting them.
But if you must, you may be able to kill Zombies with a good 7 to 8 hits with a 2x4.
If you correctly aim at their heads and manage to land hits, you can take them down quicker.
Even though the Weapon Shop in NAKWON tries to provide as many weapons as possible, these items are so rare that some can only be found during Scouting.
However, as we always say, fighting is not always the best in Survival.
So even if you do have a good weapon, consider each situation carefully, and act accordingly. - Armor by parts
Armor can be equipped to the head, body, arms, and legs.
Armor is your lifeline that blocks external attacks for you.
Your Armor will block all attacks that come towards you until it breaks.
The better the Armor, the more durable it is.
When the durability of the Armor depletes completely, it breaks and can never be used again.
NAKWON Technical Lab is currently restoring the technology to repair and reuse Armor with 0 durability, but more time is needed.
Be aware that attacks will directly affect Survivors’ health if their Armor breaks.
If you don’t own Armor now, you can craft temporary Armor by collecting odds and ends (Wire, etc.) around you.
Crafting skills for temporary Armor are taught at the City institution, and courses for better Armor become available according to your Citizen Class.
We encourage you to reach a higher Class to receive various benefits. - Gloves
Gloves allow you to have a better grip so that your hands don’t slip.
This helps to grab onto any leverages enabling you to parkour, even mid-jump.
Hence, wearing Gloves will let you jump and climb onto higher walls or trucks.
While we've only explored the mentioned functionality, more use cases may unfold.
Gloves may not be crucial to your survival, but after experiencing Scouting with them, going without can feel like you are unprepared. - Shoes
Shoes provide extra friction to the feet so that they don’t slip, and in turn, you can move quickly even when you are sitting. (Press the [Shift] Key when moving in the squat position.)
However, it will consume Stamina just like normal running.
Just like gloves, we expect to find more use cases for shoes.
- [h3]Consumable[/h3]
- Food: Various canned foods are most common.
As one of the most important items, food fills the Fullness gauge that decreases every day.
If your Fullness diminishes to below a certain level, you will get hungry, and performing actions will become difficult, so we recommend always stocking up on food. - Drink: Water and Drinks help recover Stamina for a certain time.
It’s recommended to keep them in case you must run for a long time. - Medical Supplies: You can recover health by using medical supplies like Bandages.
