Hey guys, I'm currently in the process of making a board/card game based on the idea of prepping and apocalypse. Before you ask, yes I am aware of the deckbuilding game and this is not quite the same thing.
The game proceeds in two phases. The first phase is about building up your resources and prepping. You'll work your day job while accumulating equipment, food, and building cards that all have their own special effects. The apocalypse can happen at any time, so you need to stock up as quickly as possible. You also never know what kind of apocalypse is going to happen. Zombies? Meteors? Economic Collapse? After that, you need to complete whatever special conditions that apocalypse requires you to or run through the entire apocalypse deck to win. You can choose to work together or separately.
What I'd like help from the community on is what sort of things a prepper would have stockpiled. The three main categories of items are Food, Equipment, and Shelter.
Most Food items are uninteresting things like canned beans and TV dinners. However, some provide a bonus, like energy drinks making you better at fighting.
Equipment is going to be things like multi-tools, shovels, backpacks, vehicles, etc. Their effects on the game world will be much more varied and interesting.
Finally, Shelter cards are going to be more permanent parts of you r backyard/basement bunker. They'll provide a less dynamic, but constant source of advantage. Examples are hydroponics, refrigerators, solar panels, etc.
