One of my favorite games.

The other characters are good defense to help out and you'll end up getting machetes for them as well if you kill enough zombies. After the second day, Jason is way too fucking fast to take out consistanly in the cabins so the idea is, you want to draw him out and fight him 2D style, he'll leave after enough damage and just follow the trail after him, usually, you can get a few chances to wipe his ass out that way and beat the game. Honestly, if he attacks the cabin of kids near the lake, that's a death trap to go in there and rescue them, sacrifice a few of the children and wait for him to attack one of the camp counselors again. Simply warp to the house he's attacking and head outside.
I can beat this game pretty consistanly with all the camp teens alive but it's damn near if not impossible to save all the children. Anyways, I love this game and the best advice I can give is to avoid fighting Jason's mother for the sweater or pitchfork, I never found it needed or worth it to get those items and fight her on the second or third day. Fuck, I love me some Friday the 13th.
I actually like to get the sweater at the end of day 2. Yeah, you take some damage, but on day 3 you're healthy again and you take less damage with it on. The pitchfork, though isn't worth it for me unless I can get a whole lot better at dodging that bodyless bitch's attacks.
What's with the cabins in the woods? Everytime I find one, it's empty anyways? What the hell are they for?
