Gin is a clear spirit that comes in a one litre glass bottle. It is a drink first, but the bottle matters as much as what is in it. Once found, it serves as a fluid container and as a glass bottle for crafting.
A bottle weighs 1.0, so it is heavy to carry around. Gin is found in liquor stores, bars and restaurant dining rooms, and in hidden liquor stashes.
Eating
The game data lists a bottle of gin as lowering hunger by 20 and thirst by 20. It also lists 2630 calories for the bottle, which is a large amount of energy. Drinking alcohol makes the character drunk, and the effect fades with time.
Gin is a poor way to stay hydrated. Clean water does the job without the drunkenness. Vodka sits close to gin, with the same hunger and thirst values and 2310 calories per bottle.
A character who needs to gain weight can use spirits as a calorie source.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.
| Item | Hunger | Thirst | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gin | -20 | -20 | 2630 |
Cooking
The bottle counts as a glass bottle in crafting. Break Glass turns it into Broken Glass. Smash Bottle turns it into a Smashed Bottle. Make Molotov Cocktail uses it to make a Molotov Cocktail.
As a fluid container, the bottle holds up to 1 litre. Filled with clean water, it can be drunk from automatically when the character is thirsty.
Locations
Gin is a common find in places that sell or serve drink. Liquor store shelves hold it often. Hidden liquor stashes are almost certain to hold a bottle. Bar counters, bar shelves, bar kitchens and bar storage rooms stock it fairly often. Restaurant dining rooms keep it on counters and shelves.
A dishes cabinet in any building can hold a bottle too. That makes a house kitchen worth a look.
