A fortified hospital, a flickering power grid, and a psych ward that plays tricks on your head—this gauntlet throws everything at us and then some. We set a single objective—reach the roof for extraction—and make a series of messy, decisive moves to get there: a salt “oval” for confidence, a tarp that doubles as a map and gear hauler, a compass that turns into crowd bait, and just enough tiger spray to open lanes when the stairwells close in.
The psych ward forces us to solve for perception first: hallucinations, real humans, and the question that matters—do we treat it like a ghost or a threat? We keep roles tight and rules simple: back-to-back movement, short commands, and constant forward progress. When a locked door halts the run, we go full puzzle-solver and unearth a hidden code with lemon juice and heat. On the roof, scaffolding transforms from background noise to a proper barricade, buying the time needed to plan a quiet descent via a covered trash chute and a loud distraction pitched to the far side of the building.
The parking structure is the final test: fifth-floor pickup, limited spray, and a shadow on our heels. We choose the side stairwell for predictable geometry and use nuisance tactics—pocket salt, noise control, spacing—to avoid the crush. The last moments are pure coordination: one of us braces the door while the other grabs the ladder; then a tarp toss and pocket sand break the final grab, and the helicopter pulls us into clean air. Through jokes and chaos, the theme stays serious: preparedness is a mindset. Small tools and smart timing can outpace bigger problems, whether it’s blackout, storm, or full-on zombie circus.
If tactical problem-solving, survival psychology, and cinematic chaos are your thing, you’ll love this run. Stick around to hear who wins the gauntlet, what movie we’re queuing up next, and why a simple tarp might be the most underrated tool in your kit. Enjoyed the ride? Follow, share with a friend who loves zombies, and drop a review with the one item you’d never leave behind.
