How to use VHS tapes in Project Zomboid?

To use a VHS tape in Project Zomboid, players will need to locate a TV and pop the tape inside of it. You can find TVs in a lot of locations, but the best place to look is inside homes and VHS Stores.

When you locate a TV, click on it as you would if you were going to watch a TV channel. But instead of playing around with the channel settings, you will instead need to click and drag a tape from inventory into the TV. Once the tape is placed, simply click play and then sit back and watch the show.
