Therefore, comprehending each role is essential for optimal performance. Let's explore each role in detail.

 

1. Explore

The Explore section in Undawn showcases Area Exploration's work across the world. The map features seven main locations, all heavily populated with zombies, requiring players to complete assigned storyline missions to free them. In-game resources can also be used to upgrade these locations. The following locations are key to the Undawn world and can be found in the Explore section:

The Story section allows players to easily access information about their journeys, making it a familiar and useful tool. Additionally, this section includes four subsections:

• Adventure Guide

 

The Adventure Guide is a section that allows players to engage in thrilling and adventurous missions that are also part of the game's storyline. It consists of four parts: Wilderness Survival, Advanced Training, Start Adventure, and Encounters in the Mines. This section contains missions that prioritize adventure over gameplay, ranging from survival-based challenges to defeating zombies. The game is divided into four chapters, each with a series of stages featuring limited missions. Players must complete these missions in order to progress to the next stage.

Past Reflections features significant events and videos related to the game's storyline. These reflections unlock one by one as players complete important arc events, allowing them to enjoy the cinematography.

The Wilderness Anecdote is the primary section where players can experience true adventure across the map. By completing unlocked missions, players can unlock additional ones, allowing them to explore the entire island and take on the most exciting missions available. Players are rewarded for their efforts.

 

• Survival Journal

 

The Survival Journal is where players can view their completed and ongoing chapters, as well as their completed and uncompleted missions within each stage. This feature helps players track their progress and identify which storyline missions they have yet to complete.

 

3. Equipment

The Equipment section allows players to enhance their unlocked equipment using Silvers. To unlock more equipment, players must understand the crafting process and gather Clerk Bark, Iron Ore, and Tattered Animal Skin. These materials can be filtered using a refining machine located on the player's homestead. Crafting weapons becomes easier as players level up and gain more experience.

 

Enhancing your equipment is a simple process that can be done by following these steps:

• Go to the Menu section and tap on Equipment

4. Skills

The skills section contains useful abilities that assist players in combat against zombies and gathering resources. It is divided into two sub-sections.

• Utility 
• Powerups 

 

The Utility section offers three options to assist players in battle:

• Throw: This option displays all throwable items, allowing players to choose from a variety of attacks when faced with a large group of zombies in a specific location.
• Device: These devices are strategic utilities that players can use between fights to set traps for zombies. Passive abilities can also be used during lulls in combat to give players an advantage, such as escaping or dealing more damage in response to an opponent's attack.
• Passive: The Powerup section unlocks great abilities that permanently enhance the player's skillset, making the character stronger during fights.

 

5. Drone 

The drone section offers players the opportunity to create drones for their characters, which can be used for scouting or during breaks between battles. As players progress through the storyline, they will unlock various types of drones.

 

To use a drone in the game, players must collect 6 components and assemble them. Once assembled, players can access the drone icon on the game screen to use it during missions and increase their chances of victory.

The Camp section prioritizes the Clan system in the game, allowing players to create or join a Clan. This enables players to provide and receive help with resources, missions, and other needs from their friends within the Clan.

To cover long distances and complete missions, players have a variety of vehicle options in the game. If the character runs too much, their energy will be depleted, making it difficult to fight zombies effectively. Players have the option to use various vehicles, including bikes, cars, and Monster trucks. A Bike is available for free at the start of the game, while all other vehicles must be purchased through in-game transactions.
