House Varieties

Rooms

The area just behind the front door. Contains book cases and a desk. You'll usually find assorted clothing and other miscellaneous items, such as lighters and magazines.

Kitchen

It contains a fridge, sink, oven, cupboards, and maybe a table.

Items

Bedroom

A big room with a bed and a dresser. You'll usually find miscellaneous clothing and other items in the dresser. Lying around you can find other useful items such as sewing kits, containers, sunglasses, etc. Occasionally there's two bedrooms.

Bathroom

There's always a functioning toilet here that you can use as a source of limited unclean water. You can also find all kind of meds here, including aspirin, multivitamin, Cough syrup, Non-drowsy cough syrup, bandages, first aid kit, and occasionally rarer drugs.
