Trivia / 7 Days to Die

Go To

  • Colbert Bump: A slight increase in the game's popularity was due to LordMinion777 (Markiplier's friend, Wade) and Markiplier himself (albeit briefly) doing an 18-episode Let's Play of it. In 2020, Mark, Wade and their other frequent collaborator, Bob, have done a couple Twitch livestreams that have been released as YouTube videos as well.
    • This can also be seen with Achievement Hunter's recent videos on the game, with both sales and demands for more videos going up with every release.
  • Follow the Leader: 7 Days came up around the time DayZ became widely popular. Whether or not they took inspiration from it is up for debate. In early stages the harvesting, crafting, and base construction aspects were also clearly inspired by Minecraft's survival mode. With the overhaul introduced in Alpha 13, the interface and mechanics are close to those of Rust.
  • Word of God: Most of what's available, information-wise, is that the game takes place After the End, there's been a Third World War and that Navezgane is still somehow intact after all of this. And that's on the game's website. In game, you can find newspapers that mention a "flu epidemic".
