This is an overview of the series, 7 Days to Die, from episode 176 through episode 229. The game is played in Alpha 16.
This season starts with Aaron and Emre going back to their roots: gameplay without any mods or other players, just Aaron and Emre surviving the zombie apocalypse. After setting up a new base in an underground bunker, they turn their attention to exploring and claiming a skyscraper they name DeVito Tower.
In episode 202, roughly halfway through the season, Aaron and Emre find the backpacks they'd been wearing in the Evilverse (Season 9), still holding Evilverse artifacts. This results in the reintroduction of Bloobs as a supporting character and a new storyline that culminates in Aaron and Emre racing to stop yet another apocalypse of their own creation.
This season introduces a new, live-action opening credits sequence, edited for the Game Society Pimps by Joey Hollywood using footage from 7 Days to Die In Real Life.
Season 10 Death Count (through Episode 192)[]
As of Episode 192, Season 10 holds the current record for Aaron's lowest death count. (Aaron's record to beat for completed seasons is 3 deaths).
Characters[]
Forts[]
The Sarlacc Cave (Temporary Fort)[]
- When he ducks away from a wolf, Aaron discovers a long, narrow wending into the earth from a hillside. The tunnel is lined with mushrooms, stalagmites, stalactites, and "shellactites," which look like teeth. In fact, the whole tunnel makes Aaron feel like he's going down a long "intestine with teeth," like the Sarlacc. Regardless, both he and Emre are extremely excited to have found the "coolest fuckin' pre-base ever" on Day One. Emre compares it to a little Hobbit hole. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Despite their intentions to use the Sarlacc Cave as a fort, they never actually use it as such. As they quickly move on to better shelters, they decide to simply keep their bedrolls in the cave as a safe place to respawn. When Emre dies and respawns atop the mountain, above the cave, they realize even that plan won't work. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
Water Tower (Temporary Fort)[]
- A basic water tower Aaron and Emre use to wait out Night 1. After Aaron's attempt to set up a romping area with hay bales meets mixed success, he climbs up on the roof to build a hunting perch, mainly to fulfill his "initial need" to build a fort. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Emre eventually realizes that the tower contains a huge supply of water and breaks in to collect it, only to contract diarrhea.
O.G. Fort[]
- Aaron spots an underground bunker (recognizable by the motley scrap metal fence ringing its yard) on the morning of Day 2. He immediately calls it out as a potential temporary shelter (Episode 177 - Bad For Business). He and Emre settle in by that night (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters).
- A "phase-shifting" zombie bear invades the bunker on Day 3 (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base), prompting Aaron and Emre to abandon underground bases entirely. They keep using O.G. Fort through the Day 7 blood moon, however (Episode 185 - 7th Day Fail).
- Aaron names the bunker the O.G. Fort while he and Emre scramble to reach it on Night 6, in reference to the bunker being their "original" home now that they've decided to move over to Devito Tower. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
Devito Tower[]
- A partially ruined skyscraper (an office building) located in Downtown Toilet Town. Originally named Di Shong Tower, Aaron insists on giving their new home a better name, and Emre suggests Devito Tower, for actor Danny DeVito. Emre argues that "of course" Danny DeVito deserves to have the new fort named after him; "He's such a small man, he needs a big tower."
- Aaron gets the idea to take over a skyscraper (and build a rooftop garden) in Episode 180 (Military Man), in the wake of a terrifying zombie bear attack on the O.G. Fort. Emre first spots the tower after tracking down a distant supply drop. They resolving to take it over in Episode 181 (The B**bie Trap).
- Aaron and Emre start searching Di Shong Tower on Day 5, and immediately decide that a fort built here would be "impervious, impenetrable, and impossible." They establish a base camp in the lobby's reception kiosk (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure), and then "officially" move in on Day 8 (Episode 186 - Devito Tower).
- As of Day 13, (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams), Aaron and Emre have not yet fortified Devito Tower.

- Part 2: Out in the plains, Aaron spots what looks like a giant spike in the ground. "That can't be good." When he runs up to the "spike," he discovers it's actually a dead chicken, extending into infinity.

Aaron eventually decides that he must have eaten some bad canned chicken. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 3: Aaron mysteriously loses the ability to see Emre, who becomes completely invisible to him on Night 5; Aaron can neither see Emre nor the light shining from his mining helmet. Emre has to place a bedroll right in front of Aaron to convince him that he is, in fact, there. Aaron huddles in a corner, a gibbering mess, and guesses that Emre may have died (when killed by zombies earlier that day) and come back as a ghost. (Emre's visible again when they "wake up" the next morning.) (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)

- Part 2: Emre ignores Aaron's advice to sneak up on sleeping zombies, instead barging into a wrecked house.

(Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 3: When the Day 7 feral horde proves to be a total wash, Aaron and Emre eventually emerge from their bunker with a few hours of darkness to go, both complaining about what a total lack of challenge the horde presented. Emre is adding how he thought the blood moon thunder would be frightening as well, but... ...when the last zombie of the night comes running at them.

(Episode 185 - 7th Day Fail)
- Part 4: After being devoured by construction workers, Emre reveals that when he and Aaron started exploring Devito Tower, he stored most of his guns in a chest because he thought they would just be spending their night building stairs and having a good time. (Episode 187 - On Top of the Tower)

- Part 5: Aaron tries to use Emre's old "trick" of using a wooden frame to break his fall when he jumps off a cliff. It doesn't work, predictably. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)

- Part 6: Emre gets angry when he realizes that part of the reason he keeps dying all the time (while Aaron has yet to die even once) is that most zombies seem to complete ignore Aaron, even shambling around him in order to get at Emre. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 7: Emre acknowledges that since he's become a vegetarian, it's really hard to find foods that will increase his Wellness. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)

- Part 3: Episode 178 (Apocalypse Hipsters) is actually named for the series of fashion shows Aaron and Emre put on for each other once they've established a permanent base. Aaron describes Emre's new look as a "ZZ Top cyborg." Emre thinks Aaron's suit-coat-and-shorts ensemble looks ridiculous, but Aaron thinks he's cool. They both agree he looks like a hipster. As a gag, Emre models an outfit which happens to look just like Bwett's usual outfit. When Aaron switches to a full suit and a cowboy hat, he adopts the persona of an oil baron. Aaron concludes that Emre is actually looking pretty good these days, except for his saggy ass.
- Part 4: Aaron and Emre search a school, giddily showing off any new clothing they find. Emre eventually catches himself: "Why are we getting so goddamn excited about fuckin' clothes?

- Part 6: By Day 12, Emre has completely forgotten how to find clay again, which Aaron finds exasperating. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)

- Emre vs. His Dick, Part 1: At the end of Season 9, Aaron and Emre negotiated a "wish" in which Jub would give Emre automated turrets ("Day One") in return for also having a tiny dick. When Aaron mentions this in their new world, Emre denies that there's anything wrong with his dick, but acknowledges he hasn't looked at it lately. On the bright side, Jub did deliver on the promise of an amazing beard. Emre hasn't seen his dick in a while (thanks to his belly), and he doesn't plan to check it until he finds a turret. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: While battling a zombie "fat lady" and zombie daughter, Emre calls dibs on the daughter. Aaron fires back that she won't be interested in him, because "You got nothing going on down there." Emre insists that what matters isn't what you got, but rather how you use it. Aaron points out that you can't use what you don't got. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 3: Aaron brings up Jub's promise to shrink Emre's dick down to nothing again on Day 4. Emre denies it and tells Aaron to enjoy imagining the size of his dick. Aaron continues to needle him, but Emre insists he's very well endowed and always has been. Naturally, of course, Emre has never seen another man's "wanky-dank." Aaron has particular trouble believing that Emre's father never showed Emre his dick. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 4: When Aaron confesses that eating blueberries makes him horny, he asks Emre if popping pills makes him horny. Emre claims that nothing makes him horny anymore, and reveals that he hasn't had any feeling in his dick since arriving in this region. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)

- Part 3: Emre may still not quite understand how sex works. He's never seen another man's dick, but he assumes his father's penis must have been huge in order to sire him. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 4: Along with a general crisis of faith, Emre is now willing to suck the naughty bits of anyone who gives him a turret. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 5: Emre suggests that if you put a bag over a stripper zombie's "head and face and upper area," the rest of her ain't bad. When Aaron protests that Emre is a man of religion, Emre reminds him he's having a crisis of faith.

(Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 6: Emre finds desert zombies sexier than normal zombies because they wear fewer clothes. That is not Aaron's experience. (Episode 183 - Vulture Club)

- Emre the Health Nut, Part 1: Emre is horrified when he find plastic scraps in a dead tree trunk, certain that eating the plastic (by absorbing it through its roots or leaves or whatever) is what killed the tree. He relates it to whales who die after eating plastic. Aaron spitefully blames the "stupid" whales. Emre agrees; if whales were so smart, why didn't they crawl up out of the water, like people did? They stop picking on whales after an offended "aqua-zombie" nearly kills Emre mid-swim. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: Emre endorses a steady diet of human blood bags. They satisfy your hunger and your thirst! "You gotta drink a lot of blood, though." (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)

- Part 4: The next day, after dying, Emre forgets he's gone vegan, eats some bacon & eggs, and then remembers and laments how hard it is to maintain his diet. Emre realizes that he eats meat almost constantly. Aaron points him toward yucca fruit, but Emre can't find any. Later, Aaron confirms that peas are vegan; they don't come from a "pea cow." Emre finds and happily eats a blueberry pie. By the end of the day, Emre is losing track of whether he's vegan or vegetarian, and whether vegans can eat eggs. (Episode 187 - On Top of the Tower)
- Part 5: Aaron confirms for Emre that, yes, vegans can drink beer. Emre refuses to eat the meat Aaron finds in Devito Tower. Aaron thinks he's crazy to go vegan. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 6: Emre gives Aaron a meat stew he finds, reminding Aaron that he's gone vegetarian. Emre does note that since he can't eat meat, it's hard increase his bottomed-out Wellness by only eating vegetables. When he learns that vegetable stew requires potatoes as an ingredient, he gets distracted searching for potatoes in garbage piles. Aaron does not recommend vegetarianism in the apocalypse. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Part 7: On Day 12, Emre is still running around, busting down "spiky plants" (cacti) in his blind quest for yucca fruit. Aaron feels that most of the fun has been sucked out of the world now because Emre won't even chow down on his meat. Emre insists that Aaron needs to stop giving him guff for his life choices. Aaron believes that all vegetarians should be stereotyped as SJWs; there's only one very specific type of vegetarian. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Part 8: On Day 13, Emre finally figures out how to harvest yucca fruit while out aimlessly scavenging for mushrooms and potatoes. Despite his new vegetarian lifestyle, Emre has no problem hunting animals for Aaron's benefit. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)

- Bad Signs, Part 1: While huddled in the dark on Night 4, Emre struggles to read a distant sign through his night vision goggles. The best he can do is, "Poh rah doh wee la ee nee..." Both he and Aaron fear Emre's forgotten how to read. Curiosity drives Emre to seek out the sign the next day, and he see that it read's "Prowlin' Pete's," the name of the burger place. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 2: On Day 5, Emre spots a building with a "Saloon" sign. Later, Aaron finds an entirely separate building with a "Salon" sign. Mistakenly thinking they've both seen the same sign, they argue over the pronunciation and spelling of salon/saloon. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Campfire Tales: Faced with a day of "boring," "time-consuming," and "repetitive" tasks while preparing O.G. Fort for the Day 7 blood moon, Aaron asks Emre to regale him with a tale of the past.

- Part 3: Aaron and Emre encounter a high cliff that stretches off to the horizon in both directions.

(Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- Farty Party, Part 1: Emre gets diarrhea when he accidentally drinks stagnant water straight from a water tower. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: When Aaron accuses Emre of masturbating at night in his bedroll, Emre firmly denies it. That grunting Aaron hears is just Emre getting "the night shits." Emre does actually have dysentery at the moment he makes the claim. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Gaslighting Supply Drops, Part 1: Emre finds a crate in a house and breaks it open to discover... a toilet. Aaron determines that the homeowners must have been toilet hoarders. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: When Aaron breaks into a crate inside the O.G. Fort, he finds yet another toilet. His frustration prompts he and Emre to name the town they're exploring Toilet Town. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 3: On Day 4, Aaron breaks into another supply crate at a military camp, predicting that he's going to find another toilet inside. But no! It's a wall oven! "Because the military needed a fuckin' wall oven for their fuckin' tents!!" The season's first actual supply plane flies overheard shortly thereafter. The supply drop is extremely far away, prompting another rant about how the people flying the drops are "the worst." (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 4: Aaron finds a storage room full of crates in a Crack-a-Book headquarters. He starts breaking into them, fully expecting to find more toilets, but nope! It's a washing machine instead. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 5: The first supply plane of the season flies past on Day 13. The supply drop itself is valuable, but incredibly distant; reaching the crate requires dropping down a high cliff (breaking their legs) and distracts Aaron and Emre all day just ahead of the Day 14 blood moon. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- The Gospel According to Emre, Part 1: In the wake of their Evilverse misadventures, Aaron ponders whether they've awoken in Heaven, but Emre doesn't want to hear about it. He's sick and tired of "the whole Heaven and Hell bullshit." (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: Emre thinks the Very Finest Pig's offer of "eternal peace and happiness" was "Really dumb. Just, so dumb." Because that would be Heaven, so they'll have that once they get to Heaven anyway. Aaron doesn't know if he'd even believe it if he made it to Heaven at this point, but Emre is certain that of course they're going to make it to Heaven. God wouldn't make them go through all this shit and have there not be a Heaven. Aaron encourages him to keep himself comfortable with those thoughts. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 3: God provides, and he is clearly a man. (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 4: God gave us rights, including dominion over animals. So where's Emre's dominion over zombies? That should be Emre's right! He shouldn't have to work for it! (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 5: By Day 4, the recent series of setbacks - from Jub and the Very Finest Pig, to the phase-shifting bear and (apparent) fluid-sucking zombie - have left Emre in such a profound crisis of faith that he no longer believes in Hell. When Aaron says that he's having no crisis of Science right now, Emre responds that you can't have a crisis of science ("fact-based knowledge"), since you can just change science to be whatever you want it to be. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 6: According to Aaron, the apocalypse "fortunately" cleared out most of the old women in the world. Emre describes it as "spiritual selection": his version of evolution's "natural selection," which does not exist. Nature isn't really anything; it's just the graphics in the background of a video game about the awesomeness of humankind. Not calling "natural selection" "spiritual selection" is not giving God credit for all the amazing things he does, and really, credit is all God wants. God is incredibly narcissistic, which is why he had a bunch of ghost authors write the Bible for him. Emre confirms Aaron's suggestion that the ghostwriters were literal ghosts; the Holy Ghost, in fact. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 7: Aaron suggests crafting guitars so that he and Emre can form a band called Masters of the Apocalypse. Emre is dubious; he believes that would tempt the Devil to come down and challenge them to a duel. When Aaron presses him on the Devil coming "down" to them, Emre explains that the Devil always comes from the north. This scriptural interpretation is explicitly based on Emre's understanding of the song "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 8: Jesus hated social justice (and SJWs). He really liked offending people. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Part 9: The Lord works in mysterious ways, which is why he sent a good stone axe to Emre in the form of Aaron's axe-crafting skills. Since that suggests he has a sick sense of humor, perhaps the Lord also works in hilarious ways. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: Aaron checks out Emre's surprisingly smooth chest, remarking that he thought Emre used to be hairier. Emre replies that he hasn't been able to grow chest hair since arriving in their new locale, and blames either the Very Finest Pig or Jub for taking it away. (In truth, Emre has never been seen to have a hairy chest.) (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Immortality: Aaron taunts the zombie that just killed him after killing her in turn: "I'm back again, stupid! How'd that happen, hun? How'd I come back? I don't know. It just happens. This is life. This is our life." (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Ladder Control Problems, Part 1: When a cheerleader zombie gets stuck on a ladder, Aaron decides to take advantage of the opportunity by shooting her through the rungs. When his arrow breaks in midair, he discovers that isn't possible. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: It seems that Aaron and Emre's ladder problems extend to stairs as well. When Emre crafts stairs for the first time ever, he can't get them to link up. Aaron actually gets worse at placing stairs as he goes along. (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 3: Aaron is a wooden frame man. He doesn't "do" ladder. "Ladders are for bladders." (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Landmine Your Own Business, Part 1: Aaron spares Emre from some potential future pain when he informs Emre that it's no longer possible to pick up land mines. In fact, Emre does soon wander blindly into the camp's minefield, but fortunately he realizes what he's done and runs away before blowing himself up. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 2: Oblivious to the booby traps littered around The Boobie Trap, Emre walks over a landmine and is seriously injured, but survives. When Emre finds more mines by the back door, Aaron determines that some previous survivor had booby trapped the club to keep others away from his stripper zombies. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 3: Aaron has a minor panic attack when he nearly runs over a lone mine sitting out in a vast, empty stretch of wasteland. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 4: Emre congratulates himself for noticing a row of landmines before he stepped on them, which he acknowledges is a rarity. (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank)
- Part 5: Aaron knows that there's a gun safe surrounded by mines in the abandoned Food Mart fort. He could just shoot the mines, but he has a better idea: Breaking through the roof to bypass the mines entirely. The plan doesn't work; Aaron can't keep track of where he needs to dig. Then zombies attack! Aaron and Emre try to steer the zombies into the mines, but can't get them to blow themselves up. After clearing out the zombies, Aaron ends up just shooting the mines. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- Mambo No. 7, Part 1: Aaron and Emre frequently get disoriented while exploring Devito Tower. Part of the problem is that they keep losing track of what floor they're on. As they work their way up the skyscraper, systematically clearing and searching each story in turn, Emre convinces himself that the 7th floor is the 5th (naming it "Mambo No. 5"). (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank)
- Part 2: Aaron finds an elevator on the 8th floor but breezes past it, mistaking it for the elevator on the 4th floor where he'd briefly trapped Emre. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)

- Part 2: Emre sees, but fails to recognize, the telltale signs of a spiked pit trap on the 7th floor of Devito Tower... (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank)
- Part 3: ...which Aaron falls victim to the next day. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Part 4: With daylight running out, Emre has to sprint across a desert on Day 13. He bumps into numerous cacti. At one point, startled by a zombie, he spins and faceplants a cactus that had been right behind him. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- Naked and Confused: As usual, Aaron and Emre appear in a new alpha with just their underwear and basic gear. They remember losing their backpacks - Aaron recalls his being pulled away - as they fell between worlds. Aaron has a feeling that his backpack (which might still contain certain items from the Evilverse) is somewhere in this new world, but he has no idea where. Once they eventually realize they're both naked, Aaron insists that they both get dressed before they meet up. Emre's insistence that he has a hat and underwear doesn't count. "They cover up the most important parts. Your balls and your brains." Just before they finally meet up, Emre calls for a stop so he can craft himself some clothes to "conceal his shame." (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Operation Horcrux, Part 1: Aaron and Emre return to their bedrolls and "sleep" through Night 5. bridging Episode 182 (Insane Treasure) and 183 (Vulture Club). A good night's sleep restores Aaron's ability to see Emre.
- Part 2: Aaron goes to bed early on Night 6 when Emre turns invisible again. Once again, Emre's back come morning! Aaron claims to have not slept well due to Emre's invisibility; conversely, knowing that Aaron had no idea where he was allowed Emre to sleep like a baby. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 3: Aaron and Emre "sleep" through Night 10, covering a break between recordings. By the time they're up and running again on Day 11, they've both forgotten the layout of Devito Tower, losing track of their exploration, and Emre's backpack has been laying out so long that it despawns before he can reach it, costing him valuable gear. (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank)
- Other Survivors: Aaron and Emre discuss who the "Crazy Jake" who keeps leaving challenges all over the place might be. Aaron's certain that Crazy Jake spent all his time just after the apocalypse hiding notes, with no idea that he would soon be dead. Emre 100% agrees that Jake is dead, but isn't certain how he still gives completion rewards now if he's been dead for years. Aaron assures Emre that the "rewards" are just Emre's sense of achievement. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- Part-Time Job, Part 1: Emre is certain that everything they've gone through is a divine test. The thought that Heaven might not actually exist is just dumb and insane. He keeps the peace with his situation because he knows this is all leading to something better and greater. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: Aaron laments that whoever's in charge of being mean to them - be it karma or whoever runs the supply planes - has been a little extra mean to them lately. Emre thinks it's the Devil, messing with them. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 3: When a wolf kills Emre on Day 6, knocking him down to minimum Wellness, and he's reminded that Aaron is still hale and hearty, Emre rants about how unfair it is that wolves never appear at Aaron's feet and tear him apart. He decries his fate as stupid and unfair, and declares that obviously this world is out to get him. Aaron insists that Emre is paranoid and possibly drugged up. (Episode 183 - Vulture Club)
- Part 4: When Emre credits the Lord with sending him a good stone axe in the form of Aaron and his axe-making skills, Aaron finds that an interesting statement. It implies that God sent Aaron to Emre, which would suggest that God has a pretty fucked-up sense of humor. "The Lord does work in mysterious ways," Emre agrees. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Pie Bangers, Part 1: Aaron protests when the newly vegan Emre finds and immediately eats a blueberry pie. (Episode 187 - On Top of the Tower)
- Part 2: On Day 10, Aaron pauses for a blueberry snack break. Eating the blueberries makes him think back to Bloobs. It also makes him really horny. Emre is nonplussed. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 3: By Day 11, Aaron is desperate to build a rooftop garden atop Devito Tower so he can grow another blueberry pie woman. Creating this "sex-mate" so he can get laid all the time is a high priority. (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank)
- Poor Craftsman, Part 1: Aaron complains that modern stone axes aren't nearly as good as the stone axes they had when he and Emre were young. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 2: Aaron is still complaining that his items decay "instantly." (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 3: If presented with a survey gauging his "pickaxe situation," with the choices of "very good," "not so good," "couldn't be worse," or "sucks beyond all measure of life and society," he would choose the latter-most option. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Turrets Syndrome, Part 1: Emre excitedly recalls that Jub promised him turrets, but Aaron is more excited to see the results of his half of that wish: that Emre would also get a micro-penis. Emre resolves not to check his dick until he's found a turret. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: When Aaron encounters his first feral zombie (a normal-looking zombie save for glowing eyes, who runs during the day), Emre points out that these "next-level zombies" are why they need turrets. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 3: Emre declares that he would suck someone's naughty bits for a turret. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 4: Aaron reminds Emre that Jub promised him turrets. Emre is confident that those turrets will make it easy to defend Devito Tower. (Episode 187 - On Top of the Tower)
- Unbearable Facts, Part 1: A zombie bear ambushes Aaron just outside O.G. Fort on Day 3, chasing him down into the bunker. Aaron survived only because the bear's strikes repeatedly knock Aaron into or through solid matter, giving him a chance to scrabble to safety. When Aaron and Emre regroup to battle the bear, it destroys the fridge where Emre had been storing all of his gear before chasing them back outside. The bear gets stuck on the stairs, which it destroys while Aaron and Emre take turns clubbing it to death over the course of several hours. (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 2: Emre blames Aaron for leading the zombie bear into their base (and thus the destruction it inflicted). Aaron insists the bear shouldn't have been capable of fitting inside their base, so it must have had "phase-shift" or "warp" powers. Emre is outraged that the bear specifically destroyed the two containers he'd been using to store his gear, like a "phase-shifting, heat-seeking, fucking missile." Emre finds and gladly accepts a quest to kill some bears. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 3: Upon spotting another bear nearby, Emre describes his decision to avoid the bear using a simple, straightforward analogy about refusing soup to an old woman staring at you through your window. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 4: To explain the anticlimactic lack of zombie action on Night 7, Emre suggests that the phase-shifting bear was sent by wary zombies to scout out the O.G. Fort's defenses, and that it reported back that the bunker was too well defended - a total deathtrap. (Episode 185 - 7th Day Fail)
- What Comes After B?, Part 1: Aaron spots a flapping creature in the distance on Day 2, guessing it might be either a pterodactyl or a vampire bat. Eventually, he successfully identifies it as a vulture. They realize that the now-banished buh-buh-buh-bees have simply been replaced by these creatures. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: By Day 3, Aaron has seen three vultures in the distance, but Emre hasn't seen any of the "mythical" creatures. Emre finally spots the "creepy" vulture a bit later. (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 3: Emre is the first to be attacked by a vulture when he tries to spend Night 4 hiding atop a pile of building materials at a construction site. Fortunately, he manages to shoot the undead bird right in the dick. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Part 4: Barely glimpsed and unnoticed, a vulture flies over Aaron and Emre (only its shadow is visible) just as they're struggling to think of where they could find more much-needed feathers. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 5: A vulture stalks Aaron across a section of grassy plains on Day 13. Aaron tries and fails to kill the undead bird, which nearly kills him. Aaron eventually manages to break off and escape. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
- Where Wolf?, Part 1: Aaron spots his first wolves on Day 1, anxiously avoiding them. He suspects they hunt like (veloci)raptors. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: A wolf jumps Emre while he's alone in Downtown Toilet Town on Day 6, killing him with two bites. Flustered, Emre declares wolves worse than zombie dogs. (Episode 183 - Vulture Club)
- Part 3: On the other hand, Emre gets Aaron to agree that phase-shifting zombie bears are far more dangerous than wolves. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 4: Emre tries sniping a distant wolf (to seek "revenge on myself") and it nearly reaches him before he shoots it down. (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 5: Emre tries to take on a wolf with a crossbow, despite Aaron's dire warnings, and gets slaughtered for his efforts. (Episode 192 - Broken Legs & Broken Dreams)
Callbacks to Previous Seasons[]
- Emre vs. Bees, Part 1: Aaron and Emre realize with disgust and disdain that when Jub promised them that they would never encounter buh-buh-buh-bees again (Episode 175 - The End of Everything), he just replaced them with zombie vultures. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 2: When Emre finds antibiotics in a supply crate, Aaron points out that there are no more bees, so why would Emre need anti-bee-otics? (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Emre vs. Cat Food: Aaron gives Emre a can of dog food as something of a housewarming gift during their first night in the O.G. Fort. Emre is past caring and reminds him that "the actual joke" was cat food, not dog food. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Check the Map: The discovery of a sign reading "Navezgane Survivors" outside a school proves perplexing for Aaron, since they aren't currently in Navezgane (as opposed to Seasons 1 & 7 - 9). (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Georgie Porgie Pudding and Fort/Snow Mansion: When Aaron spots the aboveground shack-and-fence that marks a hidden underground bunker, he credits his knowledge of "preppers'" ways for being able to identify it for what it is. But of course, he and Emre already found and explored an identical bunker in Season 6. Aaron recalls that bunker, Emre's Snow Mansion fort, as well as Georgie Porgie Pudding and Fort, as they hammer away at the bunker's vault door. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Ho Motel. Part 1: Aaron spots a Ho Motel in Downtown Toilet Town and suggests they run past it, just to remember the good old days, "when we used to fall through the fuckin'-" The sight of new stores to loot distracts him from completing the thought. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 2: As Aaron gets excited thinking about fortifying Devito Tower, he suggests to Emre that they could each have their own living quarters, like when they each had their own little apartment back at the Ho Motel. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Jesus Pig!, Part 1: Emre's misadventures in the Evilverse, including "being toyed with by a giant talking pig," have left him with a serious crisis of faith. Aaron imagines the "happiness and peace" that the Very Finest Pig was promising was just people sitting on mats or in chairs and staring at each other. Emre imagines it's a bunch of 50-year-olds playing Monopoly. Aaron insists there's nothing peaceful about Monopoly. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: Aaron and Emre realize they shouldn't have trusted Jub, but grant that they had little choice; their only other option was to take the Very Finest Pig's offer of eternal peace and happiness, "and who the fuck wants that." (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 3: Aaron and Emre continue to debate whether Jub actually granted Emre's wishes for turrets, an epic beard, and (Aaron's addition) a tiny dick. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 4: Emre blames either the Very Finest Pig or Jub for the apparent loss of all of his chest hair. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- The Multiverse, Part 1: Emre spitefully recalls Jub as a "fuckin' Cthulhu wannabe dickhead." (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: When Emre finds some electrical parts, Aaron responds with, "Science! Oh my God, thank God there's science. I love doing science." This is a reference to his recent misadventures in the Evilverse, where God-Emperor Emre and his minions had "broken" science. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 3: When Emre can't make sense of a distant sign through his night vision, he theorizes that when Jub sent them to this world, he didn't reduce Emre's penis size, he just made him go "mentally brain damaged." Aaron suggests that Jub may have thrown in some "bonus things." (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
- Other Survivors, Part 1: Aaron and Emre refer to the first few hazmat zombies they encounter as "JWM" zombies. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business; Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 2: Aaron initially claims that he's never heard of anyone eating shit before, suggesting that he's either lost or is suppressing all memory of Bwett, but when Emre puts on clothes just like Bwett's usual outfit, Aaron finally clicks. He then admits that their new home, Toilet Town, would be really appropriate for Bwett, but advises Emre that he doesn't want to "cop his style." (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 3: When Aaron spots a distant sign reading Navezgane Survivors, he and Emre get excited at the thought of finding a trader, forgetting that the Survivors are a football team (as seen in Season 9). (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 4: Emre asks Aaron is the word "shit-tastic" makes him hungry. "Are you Bwett?" Aaron and Emre ponder what it would be like if they were out surviving with Bwett instead of each other. In a way, Aaron missed all of their friends (the Pleasure Town survivors), even if they had just one of them with them now. Emre agrees, knowing he could get the others to perform his "grunt work" for him while he rested. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 5: When Emre expresses interest in having guests over at Devito Tower, Aaron reminds him of what happened the last time they had guests. The guests all got pissy at each other, and tried to kill each other, and then tried to kill Aaron and Emre, and then Aaron and Emre got angry at each other... Aaron doesn't like that! (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 6: Emre is offended when Aaron suggests that he's a little fatter than he was when they first met, having put on about 5 pounds a year. "That's not true, what are you talking about? I look the same! Who've you been talking to? Sounds like an idiot. Was it Elfilon?" Aaron denies that Elfilon ever called Emre fat; he just said Emre was stupid. Emre calls Elfilon a liar. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Pea Factory: Emre passes by a factory that reminds him of, but isn't exactly like, the Pea Factory. He needles Aaron about the Pea Factory until Aaron acknowledges that he does remember it, as "the good old days." (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Pie Bangers: Aaron fondly recalls Bloobs, the "blueberry woman that I made, and made it with," and hopes to make another one someday. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Pleasure Town/Pleasure Shire: From Aaron and Emre's perspective, Season 10 picks up immediately following the total destruction of Pleasure Shire at the end of Season 9 (Episode 175 - The End of Everything). Aaron describes falling down a long, endless tunnel, thinking he was going to be dead for sure, but instead waking up atop a forested hill overlooking a lake. Emre suggests naming their new location "Pleasureton" but Aaron immediately shoots him down. Aaron recalls Pleasure Town as fun, but a debacle. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Safes vs. Saves: Aaron has now firmly established (in his own mind) that the plural of "safe" should be "saves." He's been getting caught on "safes" vs. "saves" ever since Episode 13 (Zom-Bee). (Episode 189 - Elevator Prank; Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Thanksgiving: Aaron finds Emre's simile comparing themselves to the Pilgrims and the zombies to the Indians to be "sad" and questionable, because if they invite the zombies over for Thanksgiving, the zombies will just eat them. Emre acknowledges it's not a perfect metaphor, but suggests they go for it. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Unbearable Facts: The terrifying zombie bear that chases Aaron into O.G. Fort in Episode 179 (Zombie Bear In Our Base) is eerily reminiscent of the time a live bear chased Aaron into the Kill Grille and mauled him in Episode 92 (Bear in the Base).
- Undead Patrons: Episode 192 (Broken Legs & Broken Dreams) was recorded as a live stream. As with Subbable patrons in the early seasons of the show, viewers of this episode could donate to Game Society and have Aaron and Emre dedicate specific zombies to them. The new undead patrons even included the seemingly unstoppable Padraig Skelly, a frequent Subbable patron back in the day.
- The Unstoppable SP Cakes, Part 1: Emre hopes that if they dress up all nice, he and Aaron might impress SP Cakes whenever she reappears, convincing her to stop destroying them all of the time. (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 2: When Emre steps on a landmine at The Boobie Trap, the explosion makes Aaron and Emre worry briefly that they may be under attack from SP Cakes. (Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap)
Fun Facts[]
- Blood Moons: This season has featured two blood moons to date.
- Day 7: After Aaron has spent extensive time designing a killing floor at the entrance to O.G. Fort, the Day 7 horde zombies prove unable to find their way into the bunker at all, resulting in a total whiff of a horde night. Somehow, miraculously, Emre still manages to get killed. (Episode 185 - 7th Day Fail)
- Day 14: Aaron and Emre easily fend off the Day 14 horde in the lobby of Devito Tower. The blood moon begins in Episode 193 (Night 14 Fail) and concludes in Episode 194 (Pastor Jim's Secret Lair).
- Building the Fourth Wall, Part 1: Aaron and Emre don't attempt to disguise their discussions about leveling up and spending skill points this season. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business; Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters; Episode 181 - The B**bie Trap; Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 2: On Day 4, Aaron and Emre complain existentially that everything seems harder and more painful now. (In fact, they've turned up the game's difficulty level between episodes, making the zombies they encounter more dangerous.) (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 3: Aaron uses his "amazing treasure-finding skills" to find a buried treasure with minimum time and effort. (In truth, he's figured out that buried treasure chests are always located exactly where the icon indicates on the world map. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 4: Aaron declares that Emre has died and become a ghost to paper over a bug that causes Emre to become completely invisible after he dies. (Aaron does explicitly tell Emre he'll have to log out, though.) (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 5: Aaron and Emre again discuss how the zombies have inexplicably gotten tougher as they prepare for the Day 7 blood moon. While looking at the crafting menu, Aaron complains about seeing a lack of options "in my own brain." (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 6: Emre takes 2 levels of the Health Nut perk between Episode 185 (7th Day Fail) and 186 (Devito Tower), explaining to Aaron (who doesn't quite get it at first) that he's "revitalized" himself by going vegan. They both agree that raising Emre's "minimum terribleness" was the best use of Emre's time and skills.
- Part 7: After climbing most of Devito Tower, Aaron realizes it will take a long time to thoroughly explore the skyscraper. "If we were, like, if we were making a TV show, or something like that, called, like, 'Emre and Aaron the Post-Apocalyptic Survivors,' like, y'know, if that was a TV show, that would take a lot of episodes." And that TV show would only be available on CBS's web site, where viewers would have to pay to see it. (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 8: Emre's mention of "A bucket of zombie predator pee and a bucket of zombie predator poo" in Episode 188 (Deconstruction) is a reference to A Bucket of Pee and a Bucket of Poo, the imaginary Game Society side channel where the Pimps release all of the fully scripted shows some YouTube viewers keep "accusing" them of making. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 9: After Emre dies, he complains about how quickly the game is loading. Aaron pretends not to know what he means. "Whatever that means? Are you talking about your turds? Waiting for your turds to load?" Later, Aaron notes that zombies have gotten so dumb they can't smell meat anymore, though he has a feeling they being able to again sometime in the future (referencing a bug tied to the game's new stealth system). (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Part 10: Episode 192 (Broken Legs & Broken Dreams) was recorded as a live stream, with viewers able to switch between Aaron and Emre's POVs with a click. Needing to share that information with viewers, Aaron muses about the idea of an audience watching them as an impossible hypothetical. Emre agrees that the idea would be cool, but also a little ridiculous. Communication problems during the live stream (Aaron's voice keeps dropping out for a stretch) also refreshes the topic of how they talk to each other across far distances, which they explain as "ear pieces." Later, after dying to a wolf, Emre suggests to the audience that they review his footage for proof that the controls ("my brain") didn't respond to his commands.
- Check the Map, Part 1: Upon waking up on a lakeside hilltop, Aaron spots a distant city and declares that they're in Switzerland ("or something"). They quickly "friend" each other on "Friendswhatevers," existentially speaking. They sample some names for their new surroundings, including "New Switzerland" and "Pleasureton," but ultimately agree to explore further before naming it. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: Aaron is still feeling out new town names as they head into Day 2, including Switzertown, Switzy, Switzich, Switcherville, Switzyland, Switzybits, and Switzyness. At dawn, Aaron thinks their surroundings remind him more of Maine. Either way, Emre is pretty sure they aren't in Texas. Aaron eventually suggests they call their town Laketown, realizing that most towns probably got their names because the settlers were too tired and desperate to waste energy thinking up with anything. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 3: Aaron and Emre settle on calling their new home Toilet Town, for all of the toilets they keep finding everywhere. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 4: The discovery of Poopy Pants Day Care convinces Aaron and Emre that they are indeed in Toilet Town. (Episode 179 - Zombie Bear In Our Base)
- Part 5: As Aaron follows Emre out of the wooded hills into the plains, he concedes that this region might not be Switzerland. The sight of snowy mountains on the horizon makes him wonder if they're out west by the Rockies. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 6: Aaron and Emre determine that the city adjacent to Toilet Town (where they find Di Shong/Devito Tower) is Downtown Toilet Town. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 7: Emre breaks open crates in Devito Tower only to find fancy toilets, reminding Aaron where they are. Emre's already forgotten the name Toilet Town; he guesses it's called Shitsville. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 8: Aaron uses the in-game map to show Emre how to find clay and even to guide him remotely to a source of water.
- The Pre-Apocalypse, Part 1: Aaron and Emre each had a duct tape wallet back in the day. Everyone made one at some point. In high school, to stand out from the crowd, Aaron used a thick bass string as a shoelace in one shoe. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 2: When Emre encounters a cowboy zombie that resembles Aaron, Aaron acknowledges that he did have a couple of relatives down in Texas before the apocalypse. (Episode 177 - Bad For Business)
- Part 3: Aaron never owned a full suit before the apocalypse. Pee-wee Herman was a brilliant man. Aaron and Emre don't know if he survived the apocalypse. Aaron thinks he probably did, and Emre hopes so. (Episode 178 - Apocalypse Hipsters)
- Part 4: The world lasted long enough for Donald Trump to threaten North Korea with nuclear fire and devastation. (Episode 180 - Military Man)
- Part 5: Danny DeVito was a very cool guy. The coolest! When the apocalypse happened, people holed up in churches because they thought God would protect them. And for the most part, according to Emre, they were right. (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure)
- Part 6: Emre spent a summer lumberjacking, specifically cutting down protected redwoods to meet the huge demand on the black market. He knows all about "they" could test redwood to determine whether or not it came from a protected tree. (Episode 184 - God's a Narcissist)
- Part 7: "Yuppers" was a fun word to say to people back before the apocalypse. (Episode 186 - Devito Tower)
- Part 8: Emre can't remember if he ever used any pick-up lines on anyone. If he did, it was when he was much younger, before he found the Lord. There was a period when Emre wasn't religious, and he was even an atheist for a time. (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Part 9: Aaron took a lot of English classes in school, which is apparently how he knows that books are edible (though not good for you). Zombies like stairs because they remember being invited over to their friends' stairwells when they were alive. Civilization lasted long enough for Aaron to remember the Harvey Weinstein scandal. Emre plays coy over whether working at Arby's was his dream job. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
- Series Records: Episode 192 (Broken Legs & Broken Dreams) is the longest episode in the series to date, with a run time of 46:39. Note, however, that Episode 192 was recorded and released as a live stream, unlike the show's standard format of prerecorded and edited episodes. Episode 192 is completely unedited, but viewers can switch between Aaron and Emre's POV at will, doubling the amount of unique footage captured. (Episode 192 is not the first 7D2D live stream Game Society Pimp has released, but it is the first to be included within the show's continuity). The longest "standard" episode of the series also falls within Season 10: Episode 200 (Night 21 & 28), at 43:48. Both of these episodes supplanted the previous record holder, Episode 99 (Zombie Night Club).
- Time Doesn't Exist Here, Exactly, Part 1: 24 game-hours in this world last 60 real-world minutes (a change from earlier alphas, when the default was 50 minutes per game-day). Meanwhile, the average episode length has been extended to 30 minutes (compared to the previous standard of 20 minutes), so roughly speaking, the series continues its overall trend of devoting two episodes to each game-day.
- Part 2: When Emre mentions Halloween in passing, Aaron acknowledges that he has no idea what time of year it is, but raises the idea of celebrating Halloween in a couple of days. Emre talks him down, advising that they find some costumes, then plan for Halloween. (Episode 176 - Alpha 16 Fresh Start)
- Part 3: Due to presence of numerous (zombified) student nurses at Poopy Prep, Aaron theorizes that the school he and Emre explore in Episode 179 (Zombie Bear In Our Base) was a survivor holdout during the initial spread of the zombie virus, where the nurses tried to treat the infected, unaware that Aaron had made it so that the plague could not be cured. In turn, this prompts Aaron to claim that he wasn't the only scientist working on a zombie virus. If Aaron hadn't unleashed the apocalypse, someone else would have; specifically, Aaron names a Klaus Jungenwaffle in Sweden, who was close to completing his zombie research.
- Part 4: The series skips past Night 5 between Episodes 182 (Insane Treasure) and 183 (Vulture Club), during which Aaron and Emre spend "sleeping" in the lobby of Devito Tower.
- Part 5: Episode 184 (God's a Narcissist) skips past Night 6, once Aaron and Emre make it home, to the dawn of Day 7. Aaron and Emre "sleep" the night away.
- Part 6: The series skips past most of the morning of Day 8, between Episode 185 (7th Day Fail) and Episode 186 (Devito Tower). Aaron and Emre spend the unseen time packing for their move from O.G. Fort to Devito Tower and training their skills.
- Part 7: Episode 187 (On Top of the Tower) skips past a few hours in the afternoon of Day 9.
- Part 8: Aaron refers to the period when survivors would have still been around, leaving challenge notes and treasure maps, as five years ago. (Episode 188 - Deconstruction)
- Part 9: After Emre is killed by zombies, Episode 189 (Elevator Prank) skips ahead from nightfall on Day 10 to the morning of Day 11.
- Part 10: Aaron blames his not knowing how to build a mini-bikes despite building them all the time back in the day on age. "It just happens. You get old, you forget." (It's truer than he knows; the real Aaron has forgotten that his character did actually learn how to build mini-bikes in this alpha.) Aaron and Emre can't remember how old they're are; Aaron hasn't been tracking his birthdays. Emre thinks it's been years since the apocalypse; maybe a decade. Emre notes that they don't look any older than when they started (although, in fact, they looked drastically different back in the early alphas). (Episode 190 - Vegetarian Idiot)
- Part 11: Episode 191 (Giant Fat Problems) skips past a few minutes of busywork mid-conversation, notable mainly for the way it makes Aaron subtly appear to teleport between shots. (Episode 191 - Giant Fat Problems)
Game Notes[]
This season updates to Alpha 16 and takes place in a new randomly generated world map (the first return to random-gen since Season 6). Significant new features and changes include:
- New entity models introduce new and revised types of zombies (including the return of long-absent Hawaiian shirt-wearing "fatties"), but also mark the removal of UMA zombies (an experiment introduced in Alpha 14). New categories of zombies include ferals (who are tougher and always run), and glowing radioactive zombies (who regenerate health). The monstrous zombies previously called ferals are now labeled as "wraiths" within the game.
- The game's original, harmless pigs have been replaced by temperamental boars. Hornets (buh-buh-buh-bees) have been removed from the game entirely, replaced by zombie vultures. Wolves and (as yet unseen) dire wolves now roam the forests, and snakes lurk in deserts and plains.
- More complex random map generation, with numerous new POIs (points of interest), including skyscrapers. It is now possible to see POIs at long distances.
- Craftable traps and electrical systems, including the turrets Emre has been praying for throughout the series. (Aaron and Emre have not yet encountered these, however.)
- A "sleeper" system by which most zombies are now encountered lurking inside buildings rather than roaming freely outside.
- Over the course of the season Aaron repeatedly complains about the zombies somehow becoming even stupider than usual. This is a reaction to problems in the Alpha 16 entity AI that can make it difficult for zombies to navigate around obstacles and target players.
Emre's recurring invisibility (Episode 182 - Insane Treasure) is due to a bug in the early Alpha 16 builds, causing players to sometimes turn invisible until they log out and back into the game.
Episodes[]

After thinking they were going to die in the destruction of Pleasure Shire, Aaron and Emre wake up separated in a pleasant countryside. Emre rails against their recent misadventures, but Aaron interrupts when he spots a distant city. They determine that they're far from each other, so Emre starts toward Aaron. They continue to get tbeir bearings as Aaron wonders at the mountain view and Emre scavenges his way past a snowy town. They sing the praises of wood frames and get in some sick burns on whales. Aaron kills time; Emre swims across freezing lakes, nearly getting killed along the way. Emre avoids a boar; when Aaron ducks away from a wolf, he discovers a Sarlacc-like cave and claims it as their new base. Emre goads Aaron into killing the wolf, but when Aaron emerges from his lair, he finds zombies to hunt instead.
After Emre pauses to craft some clothes, he and Aaron finally meet up on a mountainside road in the afternoon of Day 1. After a quick fashion evaluation, Aaron shows Emre the distant city, and then the Sarlacc cave, both placing bedrolls. They head out, and Aaron kills a zombie businessman while Emre breaks down a boulder. They hike down into town, arriving near sunset. They encounter their first sleeper zombies in some shacks. Emre kills one, then nearly walks right into a second. As the sun sinks below the horizon, they try to take out a few wandering zombies before seeking shelter. |
177 | Bad For Business | Jul 30, 2017 | Link |
Emre tests out his night vision while he and Aaron prepare to spend the night atop a water tower. They craft and trade gear and admire Emre's beard. They try romping on the hay, but Emre falls off the tower. Aaron romps by himself, and Emre throws snowballs at him. Emre breaks into the tower for its water and gives himself diarrhea.
As dawn approaches, they try out more town names, and Emre compares he and Aaron to the Pilgrims, and the zombies to Indians (because they're all sick). At dawn on Day 2, they set out to start exploring the town. Aaron searches a barn while Emre rummages through a house. They each fight a few zombies, and while Aaron finds lots of ammo, Emre finds a toilet. Emre breaks into a shed and loses a fight with a zombie nurse. He respawns atop the mountain (instead of inside the Sarlacc cave) and hurries back to the shack, where he struggles to kill the nurse in Round 2. Meanwhile, Aaron espies the telltale signs of a shack atop an underground bunker. When Emre riles up a "big lady" zombie in another shack, he and Aaron team up to take her down. They fight a cowboy zombie that resembles Aaron, and then Aaron finds a creepy corner of town that turns into wasteland when he steps into it. They continue scavenging door to door, collecting more clothes. Aaron breaks into the "preppers'" house atop the bunker. Aaron finds a treasure map! Meanwhile, Emre works his way through a house, fighting and searching as he goes. They agree to team up after a businessman zombie jumps Emre. Before that, though, Emre battles a "big lady" alone while Aaron is distracted by the sight of a distant "vampire bat" (vulture). They continue to fight and scavenge from one shack to the next as they discuss how Jub screwed them and the inevitability of Heaven. At midday, they finally join back up to break into the prepper's bunker. They break through the initial metal plates to reach... a vault door! Sigh. At long last, they break through the door, and- |

Emre shows off his new outfit as he and Aaron finally break into the bunker. Finding a toilet, they name their new surroundings Toilet Town. Already familiar with the bunker's layout, they run in, set down bedrolls, drop off their loot, and run back out to keep exploring.
They break into a house at the wasteland and go room to room, killing and looting zombies. They move on to a store, growing convinced that the residents of Toilet Town were obsessed with shit. After looting the store, Aaron falls behind to attack a utility worker. Emre enters a wrecked house and gets jumped; his panicked reaction nearly gets him killed before he can flee. Aaron comes to the rescue, and they move on to more impressive buildings: a mansion and a church. Aaron shows off his new clothes as they play on a playground. With daylight running out, they break into the house for a quick look around. They continue to search the house and pick off its inhabitants until sunset is moments away. They finally sprint for home, reaching the bunker right as night falls. Emre urges Aaron to focus on managing their gear rather than prepping a romp. They cook and trade some food, and Aaron pleads for grass until it freaks out Emre. They look around their new home, and then spend the rest of Night 2 putting on a series of fashion shows, all while Aaron nags Emre for a bedroll. On Day 3, they head back out to delve deeper into town. They consider checking out the lake in their mutual desperate desire to go kayaking. |

They enter the Nazevgane Survivors building, which turns out to be a school filled with zombie nurses, plenty of toilets, and possibly one meth head. They explore the school thoroughly, eventually naming it Poopy Prep. Aaron invents a new excuse for creating the zombie apocalypse, claiming other scientists were working on zombies too; if he hadn't unleashed the apocalypse, one of them would have. Emre rejects his excuses. They raid the school library, then finish searching the school late in the day. They split up on their way back, and Aaron finds another treasure map on a zombie. Moments later, a zombie bear ambushes Aaron, chasing him into their bunker. The bear knocks Aaron through solid walls and destroys the fridge containing all of Emre stuff.

They spend the night breaking into a gun safe and missing Bwett and their other Pleasure Town "friends."
After eating, they head out in the morning of Day 4 to find better gear. They split up to scout, and Aaron freaks out when he encounters his first feral zombie.

A supply plane flies overheard, so Aaron sends Emre chasing after the distant drop while he keeps working at the camp.

As the sun sets, they hustle to break into the club. Emre walks over a land mine, but survives. The sight of a topless stripper zombies snaps them back into focus.

Emre hides atop a pile of bricks, where he's forced to fight a vulture to the death. Aaron hides in a collapsed stairwell.

Aaron finds a storage room and starts breaking into crates, while Emre struggles to read a distant sign. Zombies find Emre near dawn, but they can't reach him. At dawn on Day 5, Emre leaps to safety, while Aaron just finds one kitchen appliance after another. Emre eventually bolts and runs to Aaron's building.

They drift away from each other. Aaron takes on a few zombies and a vulture, which nearly kills him and ultimately forces him to flee. Meanwhile, Emre picks a fight with a wolf and gets slaughtered, respawning at Devito Tower. He races back for his backpack. Aaron reaches the new town and finds the supply drop. He moves on to loot a used car dealer, and picks out an abandoned survivor compound for tonight's shelter. Aaron kills the first Padraig Skelly zombie he's seen in years. Emre reaches the cliff again and has no choice but to break his leg again to pass it. He grabs his gear and races for Aaron. He reaches the new town and breaks into a shop, where he's nearly killed by zombies. Aaron hops the fence of the abandoned Food Mart fort and starts looting. Zombies start spilling out of buildings, so Aaron beats them down. Emre checks out a pill shop, then kills a cowboy and takes his poncho. Emre reaches the fort at sunset and joins Aaron inside. Aaron shows him a gun safe surrounded by mines. Aaron suggests they break in through the roof. The plan doesn't go smoothly; Emre smacks Aaron with his sledgehammer, Aaron loses track of where to dig, and a gang of zombies interrupt their work. Aaron and Emre spend most of the night defeating the zombies, with Aaron using up most of his ammo. As dawn approaches, Aaron shots the mines and Emre breaks into the safe, which holds junk. After they kill the last zombie of the night, dawn breaks on Day 14. Aaron and Emre pick a room and bed down to rest. |
