Overview
I decided to make a guide! This will not be a full guide as i have not explored everything, but it should be functional.
Starting out
(I won’t be doing screenshots yet, sorry) So first, you learn the controls while being chased by wolves, I suggest changing the controls or using a controller, I think it’s easier that way, but I don’t mind. So once you get past there you find your den and have four cubs/kittens. you have to catch 3 rabbits before they follow you, I’ve heard you can use voles too, but I’m not sure. Then you catch some more rabbits for awhile then the lonesome fog comes. it rises from the water, and one of your cubs/kittens can freeze in fear, you can pick them up and they’ll be fine. bring your cubs/kittens to the den, I hope you caught some rabbits earlier, you’ll have to wait at your den till’ the fog goes away.
Winter biome
So this part is optional, it’s only if you go towards the snowflake symbol. The winter biome is a snowy place with rocks you can jump on, it has rabbits like normal but also deer! Deer feed everyone but take more energy and work. But there is a new threat. Wolves are back! for your cubs again.. You can jump on the rocks to avoid the wolves and your cubs will follow you up. that’s about it for here.
Forest biome
So this biome is nice, but it is risky. There’s pheasants and grouse I think, but I never look. The best way to hunt grouse/pheasants is to stalk them as close as possible then run right when they do. The problem with hunting here is the trees. The trees can make you lose sight of prey you are chasing and you can run into them and lose the prey.
Animals (DLC and normal)
Rabbits-Main prey source, feeds 2 cubs, I suggest going after a group, catching one, going after another, then when you’re close, drop your first rabbit and get the next one. Spawns everywhere.
Voles-Secondary prey source, fairly rare, feeds 1 cub, unless you have one cub, or haven’t fed them in awhile, I suggest you eat this one. Spawns in the winter biome and den.
Frogs-Same as voles but next to lakes.
Deer-Large prey source feeds EVERYONE. Even yourself! I think they only spawn in the mountains and winter biome, fairly rare and hard to catch.
Wolves- These cannot be killed and I think they only spawn in the winter biome, avoid by jumping on rocks, the big, flat ones.
DLC
Eagle-One of my least favorite animals as a lynx.. these will swoop in to grab your cub, jump on them as fast as possible! I believe they spawn anywhere you are twice per game.
Fox-This one is less dangerous but still a threat. Make sure you look behind you if you notice twigs snapping, but do NOT ignore them! If you ignore them you may be too far from your cub to catch up!
Bear-I haven’t encountered this one myself, but, from what I’ve seen, they scare away prey, and can kill a cub, so run away, and do NOT get close, even if you’re chasing a fox with your cub, if the fox goes near the bear, walk away. Losing one cub is worse than risking another cub.
Extras!
Nests-These spawn in pink-ish trees with owls, shake them out for a meal! 🙂 Can also be found on the ground.
Water-This restores energy for you!
Will be changed later with your comments and new things that I discover!
