doomsday preppers

Doomsday preppers are a sophisticated bunch with a tremendous resolve, but sometimes they go a little overboard… or do they?

To exist in the world of the preppers, sometimes you have to stay a little ahead of the next guy or get caught with your pack-ratting pants down.

While it’s definitely not a game the fun is in the fact that some get a little caught up in the process and forget what the end result is supposed to be.
