First night on the mountain

A short path through the wiki before you freeze outside.

  1. 1

    Save before you dig far

    There is no reliable autosave. Read the getting started guide, then save at base after every scrap dump so a freeze does not wipe an hour of tunnels.

  2. 2

    Upgrade close to Kai first

    Snow hardens as you leave the campfire. Collect nearby scrap and cans, then follow the shovel upgrade planner before you tunnel toward the radio tower.

  3. 3

    Learn the landmarks

    Jump, use binoculars, and match the in-game map so you stop digging in circles. The map hub and the old house page list the bus, outdoor charms, and other buried buildings.

  4. 4

    Survive wolves and night

    Death to wolves barely costs progress, but freezing outside unlocks Lost to the Cold. The survival guide covers night, glow sticks, and Day 2/3 stalls.

  5. 5

    Chase both endings later

    Finish Ending A, then use the Kai guide, documents page, endings checklist, and achievement tracker for Ending B, paper, charms, and patron contents.
