Darkwood Guide – 10 Tips and Tricks for Beginners

Darkwood is a game where you might die several times but with the help of the Darkwood guide, you will become stronger.

If you are into the horror gaming genre and looking for some more gritty and gripping games, Darkwood is one of those. The developers claim that the game is not a fair deal to get through and players might die easily in their very first tries. If you aren’t fond of dying that easy and want to grab a better understanding of the game, here is the Darkwood guide with some tips that will help you navigate your way through it.

Keep weapons 

Make a pistol and buy its magazines. They won’t be much expensive as you will get 6 shot one for around $40. Hence, if you are not that great with melee, a pistol is your thing. You would need one pistol along with other weapons and it will never get damaged. You can sell the parts that you don’t need. 

Melee Combat

The melee combats in this game can be nerve wrecking to the core. Walk backwards and sideways to dodge dogs and then smack them. Be wary of the timing because it can be tricky. Do not forget to use traps. Always keep a secondary melee attack by default bound by mouse 3 which does not require charging up. 

Making lanterns 

Making lanterns and equipping them during the day in new areas will make the shinty rocks glint and sell for money. Lanterns can last 1-2 days when you manage equipping them in new areas. 

Using traps 

Bear traps are one of the most useful items which won’t allow enemies to get too close. However, the only drawback is that it doesn’t kill enemies but stuns them. A chain trap would keep the enemy stuck in an area but not a position. Use bear traps inside the room, in front of the door. 

Using Flares 

Flares can be better than lanterns. They protect you from fog and it does not block your ability to attack as well. So be sure to use flares instead of lanterns whenever possible. 

Using the stove

Do not cook on the stove until its your second or third house. Rather, focus on affording other stuff like workbench, better inventory, and belt space instead of gathering things to cook. 

Follow the Darkwood guide carefully and you will become the best.
