State Of Decay 2 Map -
I started in Drucker County. I suppose if the world has to end, the countryside is the best place for it. The air here smells of pine and damp earth, a deceptive freshness that almost makes you forget the shambling horrors in the treeline.

To the south, the town of Drucker offers a suburban nightmare. The streets are tighter here, the "freaks"—the Bloater gas clouds and the screeching Screamers—lurking around every parked car. But Drucker County is where I learned the rhythm of survival: move quietly, loot the isolated cabins, and never, ever walk the main roads at night.
