Mr. Prepper is about to be prepared. You know something is wrong, the risk of a nuclear war is in the air and you need to be prepared for what's coming. They promised freedom but dealing with your paranoid government is just another day in this survival crafting game;
- Build an underground shelter
- Craft machines that can keep you alive; farms, greenhouses, tools, vehicles etc.
- Trade with neighbors, give them what they need, get what is useful to you
