Kentucky Looting

Minecraft's villages have fallen to Project Zomboid's Knox Event. The villagers have turned, the iron golems are gone, and the dead walk in broad daylight.

What you do

• Search the houses, Zomboid-style. Right-click a village kitchen (furnace, smoker, barrel), medicine cabinet (brewing stand, cauldron, bookshelf, lectern) or tool shed (crafting, smithing and fletching tables...) and rummage for a moment. Each spot can be searched once, and sometimes someone got there first.
• Find 12 real Zomboid items: Canned Beans (you need a Can Opener or a knife to open them), Chips, Diet Cola, Water Bottle, Bandage, Painkillers, Baseball Bat, Crowbar, Claw Hammer, Kitchen Knife and Firefighter Axe. Village chests hold them too.
• Watch your moodles. Zomboid's own moodle icons appear at the edge of the screen: Hungry, Thirsty, Bleeding, Pain, Heavy Load and Panic. Drink or you'll slow down. Bandage your wounds after a zombie hits you. Painkillers ease the pain. Carry too much and you'll be weighed down. Get close to zombies and your heart starts pounding.
• Hear Kentucky. Zomboid's music replaces Minecraft's in the overworld, and Zomboid's sounds play for searching, eating, drinking, bandaging, weapon hits and groaning zombies.

From your own copy of Project Zomboid Every item name, icon, weight and weapon stat, every moodle icon and name, and all the sounds and music are read from your own Project Zomboid install while you play. Nothing from Zomboid is included in the download, so you need Project Zomboid installed (build 42).

Playing Single-player. It runs Minecraft 1.21.1 with Fabric in its own launcher, so it works whatever Minecraft version you normally play. The first Play sets Minecraft up, which takes a few minutes. Then start a world and head for a village.
