Here are some crucial tips for new players:
- Conserve Resources: Lantern oil and tinderboxes are scarce. Use them wisely.
- Stay in the Light: Prioritize lighting up areas to maintain sanity.
- Avoid Eye Contact: Looking at monsters drains sanity rapidly. Hide and look away.
- Listen Carefully: Sound cues are vital for detecting nearby threats.
- Explore Thoroughly: Many secrets and resources are hidden in plain sight.
- Don't Fight: Daniel is defenseless. Running and hiding are your only options.
- Save Often: While the game autosaves, manual saves can prevent replaying long sections.
