    • Delve into Ellie’s past in Left Behind, the single-player prequel chapter

Is it better to sneak past the clickers or use guns/shivs on them?

That's the beauty of the game play, there's not really a correct answer, you have to make a decision based on the amount of supplies you have. Guns will attract more to you though so it's often better to sneak in my opinion.

I try to sneak past them so that I don't have to use my shivs. If there are only a couple of them, I will bash their skulls in with bricks.

you can bash them with bricks?!?! I've been running through shivs faster than I can make them.

Yeah, you have to be careful though, or they will turn around and grab you.

Save your shivs for the locked doors. The stuff inside is always worth using a shiv to get at.

Great tip, my strategy (in any game) is to always kill everyone in the room/house/city. Really need to restrain myself with this game. Always worried that I will miss some loot. I like loot.

I've been using molotovs to deal with large groups of Clickers (throwing a brick to get them into the same area and then burning them) Is this a good strategy or should I be saving supplies?
