Arcade: Survivors Left Behind
Survive the night, craft your fight.
Haven's once radiant skyline is now overshadowed by the monstrous aftermath of Tythonic's Blue Chip.
What were once clones for mass trials have turned into the insatiable Hungers, devouring both the island and its inhabitants.
You were enlisted to clean up this nightmare, and now, just four of you remain.
Scavenge, strategize, and work together to secure your escape and survival!
[h2]General Flow
[/h2]

- Select Survivors Left Behind and start matchmaking.
- Once you're in with your 4-man squad, vote for the stage you wish to play.
- The stage receiving the majority of votes will begin after a countdown.
- Each stage presents varying levels of difficulty.
ㅤㅤ- The difficulty increases from Docks/Industrial Park → Residential Zone A/Industrial Park Outskirts ㅤㅤㅤ→ Steel Mill/Residential Zone B.
ㅤㅤ- Use the materials obtained in each stage to take on the more challenging stages.
- Once the stage starts, obtain basic weapons by interacting with the vending machine.

[h2]Hungers[/h2]
Beware the Hungers, malevolent creatures thirsting for your lifeblood!
Here's a primer on some of the Hungers you may cross paths with:
- Prototype Hunger
- Caregiver Hunger
- Explosive Disposal Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Uses Grenades.
- Molotov Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Uses Molotovs.
- Red Zone Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Uses Blue Zone Grenades.
- Alpha Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Known for its sudden rushes from afar, this gigantic Hunger will collide into you, causing a knockback and leaving you stunned momentarily.
ㅤㅤ- Tip: If a teammate is stunned, interact with them to revive them quicker.
- Dr. Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Uses a purple chemical for its basic attack, inflicting damage akin to that of Molotovs.
ㅤㅤ- Can render certain Hungers invincible - you can only take them down by targeting Dr. Hunger directly. (Hint: Look for the end of the glowing tentacles connected to the invincible Hungers.)
- Nurse Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Possesses a harrowing scream attack, which can disorient players. If it affects you, you will have a shaky screen.
ㅤㅤ- Tip: If a squad member appears dizzy, interact to stabilize their vision.
- C4 Hunger
ㅤㅤ- Has the sinister skill to carry knocked out players, switching the attached C4 on to then self-detonate.
[h2]Hunger Meter and Status Effect
[/h2]
Facing the Hungers is only one of your challenges; you must also keep an eye on your hunger meter and the potential side effects if neglected.
As the stage progresses, your hunger meter will deplete. To maintain it, you must consume food.
Your hunger status will be visually represented below your health bar through color-coded indicators:
- Blue icon and gauge: Satiated
- Green: Peckish
- Orange: Starving
- Red: Depleted
Failing to address your hunger can result in a series of debilitating effects, which intensify as your hunger grows:
- Inability to sprint
- Trembling hands, impairing your aim
- Blurry vision
Cooperation is key. If a teammate is experiencing any of these conditions, interact with them to help.
[h2]Items and Crafting
[/h2]
Crafting is essential to escape the Hungers. Gather diverse crafting materials, use the Crafting Desk, and boost both your hunger meter and health.
While you can satiate your hunger with individual materials like cabbages, water, and cured pork, specially crafted meals offer a more substantial replenishment.
But sustenance isn't your sole crafting option. Craft items like healing items, throwables, anti-Hunger chemicals, and upgraded weapons.
Available crafting weapons are melee weapons, SMGs, and shotguns. Based on the targeted body part, shotguns carry a distinct probability to induce knockbacks or knock downs.
Regarding ammunition, each Hunger you defeat increases your stockpile.
Additionally, foster teamwork by sharing crafting materials with teammates. Simply drop materials on the ground for them to collect.
[h2]Recall System
[/h2]Revive your fallen teammates by retrieving their Blue Chips.
Find the yellow PC terminal and interact with it to bring your allies back into the fray.
Each match, players are allowed a maximum of 3 recalls, and multiple teammates can be revived simultaneously.
Once revived, teammates will reappear in a random, safe area, holding all their items, except for ammunition, from before their demise. However, be cautious: they'll return with a depleted hunger meter.
[h2]Carry-over Items
[/h2]
Regardless of your match result, unused materials and crafted items (excluding weapons) you have collected will carry over to your inventory for subsequent matches.
Moreover, after successfully clearing a stage, if you're lucky, you may even be able to acquire a bonus weapon or piece of armor.
