Once you solved that part, there are a few things you should do in Winter: Then again, winter is not only about surviving. Surviving in the caves comes with its own problems though, of which sanity is a major one, unless when playing as Maxwell. AlternativeĪnother way to deal with winter is to spend (parts of) it in the Caves, where it does not get cold. Kill enough on a small timescale, and Krampus appears. One pitfall: when killing innocent creates (birds, rabbits), your naughtiness goes up. A few rabbits, one koalefant, a beefalo or two. Now you have enough reserves to only need a small amount of daily food intake to survive. They don't spoil as long as they're alive (and require no food to stay alive, curiously). As long as you don't harvest, they don't spoil.


To mitigate losing temperature fast, you can wear protective clothing. Having a heatsource near your respawn point (fire, chest with logs/coal) is recommended.

If it dips below 5, you get cold (visual indicator, edges freezing), if it gets below 0, you start losing health.Īn evil sideeffect of this is that should you die and respawn, you'll start freezing pretty much instantly again. Fire will warm you, but going away from fire too long will lower your body temperature. In addition to the three basic things you need to keep up to stay alive (hunger, health, sanity), and to the task of avoiding getting killed, in winter your temperature becomes an issue. The Winter Guide gives a few good pointers. Veterans can start a game in winter and still manage (in fact, a few level in adventure modes require you to do so). Surviving your first winter can be hard, especially for new players.
