🎯 Objectives

Your primary objective in this survival game is to ultimately escape by crafting a powerful rescue signal. Short-term, you must master basic survival: gather sticks and stones, craft an axe, and build a small shelter before the first nightfall. Long-term, you need to construct strong defensive walls, stockpile food, and craft weapons to withstand increasingly aggressive cannibal raids. Success means strategic planning, efficient resource management, and outsmarting the dangers of the forest to achieve your thrilling escape.

💡 Pro Tips

• 🎪 Master the combat timing; cannibals have a tell before they attack. Time your blocks and strikes to conserve health.
• ⚡ Efficiency is key. Always craft an axe first to dramatically increase your wood gathering speed from trees.
• 💔 Build your base near multiple resources but avoid obvious cannibal patrol routes to minimize early attacks.
• 🏆 Prioritize building a defensive wall spike trap around your base. It automatically damages enemies, giving you a huge advantage during night raids.
• 🍖 Always cook meat on a fire; it restores more hunger and is safer than eating raw food.
• 🔭 Keep an eye on your stats! Letting your hunger or thirst drop too low will weaken you, making you vulnerable.
