Stardew Valley

Genuinely recommend messing with your world settings. Lower counts and slower zombies can help you learn while not taking away the entire threat. Also no shame in extending your length of time with active power and water.

It can be difficult to learn, there's a lot of moving parts you have to keep track of. Early on, if you see more than one or two zombie shambling your way, just run. Hop fences if you can, head into the woods, do anything to break line of sight, and if you want to head back where you started, make a wide loop, try to lure them away.

Get an athletic character and sprint

The hard way is to settle a combat tile.

You get raids every ~3 days so plenty of meat. I think Francis John did a series on it.

Sandbox mode. Customize all your people as cannibals, and make it so new people wander in to your map frequently enough.

I've never done cannibals, I like to give myself lots of gold so everyone can have gold beds. And I like adding bionic body parts.

I believe hunting will be a big part of it but wonder what else will be included.
