Recommended starting equipment
- MP5 submachine gun (same trade value to Eugene as heavier weapons, but less weight)
- Fifty feet of rope (nearly as valuable as the MP5 to Eugene, only 3 lbs, and has no use in the rest of the mission)
- Night vision goggles (one of the most valuable items to Eugene, low weight of 5, and no use in the rest of the mission)
- Cavalry sword (another highly valuable weapon, only 5 lbs)
Bakery Truck
The first major encounter in Temperance is a bakery truck with two zombies in cheerleader outfits. An unknown group has prepared an ambush nearby. Fighting leads to almost certain death for a Scientist. To avoid the confrontation:
- Move quietly toward Mindy
- Move to Mindy
- Flee the area
Next, a conversation with Mindy presents itself. Asking her about life before the outbreak increases relationship score. A higher relationship with Mindy leads to romance opportunities later.
Xavier Pharmacy
The path with the fewest choices:
- Break into the back door
- Investigate the door thoroughly before making a decision
- We are here for medicine. Do you have any to spare?
- Yes, we have things to trade.
Inside, you find Devlin. As a scientist, take a blood sample by selecting “I get the impression you don’t want Devlin here. Is that true?” followed by “Discuss this more before making a decision.”
Trading with Eugene
Trade night-vision goggles, fifty feet of rope, and cavalry sword. You will not need these items going forward, and the Cathedral supply room replenishes with each chapter.

Optional final-section steps for relationship building with Mindy:
- Continue down the corridor
- Do nothing and let her stop when she is ready
- Search the room
- Keep trying the safe
