For '''5T''', you can explore the Hoburbs for various items and nice little bonuses. As with the Red Light District and the [[Canbodian River]], you need to be alive in order to explore it. It is not recommended to explore the Hoburbs while ''Zombified'' and dead, since you won't be able to receive an extra meal from the Dreadlocked Dude or win any of the fights you run into.
