The screwdriver stuck in a body, where it is first found
The Screwdriver is a melee weapon featured in Escape Dead Island. It's one of the first weapons you collect near the beginning of the game and gives you a way of silently killing zombies.
Location[]
The screwdriver is located inside the marina warehouse after you first enter it during Mission 3 - Echoes. Cliff takes it out of a dead body.
Usage[]
It's the first weapon you'll acquire in the game and allows you to stealthily kill zombies when undetected. However, it's not a normal melee weapon since you can't use it when spotted. Instead, Cliff will take out a normal melee weapon (such as the Makeshift Club) and fight with that. Therefore, it's only used for stealthily killing zombies.
To kill with this weapon, crouch up to the back of a zombie and press the attack button. Cliff will stand up and rapidly stab the zombie in the neck repeatedly. This takes a few seconds before Cliff returns to a crouch. It's quite a slow kill time (slightly quicker than 4 seconds with roughly three stabs to the neck), but it is mostly silent and will kill the zombie without it hurting Cliff.
Notes[]
- It is the only way of stealthily killing zombies until you find the army knife later in the game.
- The Screwdriver is the only melee weapon in the game that has a cutscene for its acquisition.
