Our guidance
How do I effectively navigate the tunnels without getting lost?
Use your field journal to record observations and test theories. You can sketch notes directly onto your map and leave chalk marks on cave walls to track your path, which helps you remember the route back to safety.
What is the best way to check a passage before entering?
Before committing to a crawl, throw scrap into the passage and listen carefully. This technique allows you to gauge the safety of the area ahead without exposing yourself to immediate danger or wasting precious resources.
A brighter lantern reveals more of the cave environment, which is helpful for navigation. However, keep in mind that higher brightness settings burn through your limited fuel supply much faster, forcing you to balance visibility against resource conservation.
What environmental hazards should I watch out for?
Pay attention to moving air, which indicates a deadly drop. Additionally, be cautious with open flames when gas is present, as it creates a dangerous situation. Always monitor your air levels, especially when navigating through tight, confined passages.
How can I improve my character's abilities between hunts?
You can shape your expeditions by scavenging arcana cards, protective runes, and mysterious parchments. Spend your earned scrap on card upgrades and convert your experience points into permanent improvements to enhance your survival capabilities for future runs.
Once you have pinned down your target, steady your aim and time your shot carefully. If you are being chased, be prepared to abandon your careful plan and prioritize escaping to a grotto to recover your composure.
How do difficulty settings impact the gameplay experience?
The game offers six distinct difficulty settings along with custom cave options. These features allow you to control how hard each hunt pushes you and provide fresh layouts, ensuring that you can tailor the challenge to your current skill level.
What are the primary phobia warnings for this game?
This game features content that may trigger arachnophobia, claustrophobia, nyctophobia, and amalgamation horror. Players should be prepared to encounter large spiders, extreme confinement in narrow tunnels, prolonged darkness, and creatures formed from the grotesque merging of multiple organisms.
Careful deduction is your primary weapon. You must descend into the maze, locate the Beast by following the clues it leaves behind, and find the bow and arrow necessary to kill it while managing your limited light, air, and sanity.
Your sanity is a vital resource that depletes as you take detours. As your sanity dwindles, spiders will begin to draw closer to your position, making it essential to find a grotto to recover before the situation becomes unmanageable.
