Torch

The **Torch** is one of the Tools available in The Long Dark.

## Description

* A simple torch -- The kind that's dispelled the darkness for thousands of years. Might even keep the Wolves at bay.

## Crafting

* Torches can be crafted anywhere with 3 Sticks, Cloth, and 0.10L of Kerosene.
* Crafting time is 0.25 hours
* Yields one torch

Alternately, a more primitive variant of torch called a brand can be acquired by taking it from an active fire in the fire menu, consuming 10 minutes of fire duration. The brand is lit by default and cannot be extinguished or stored in inventory. It's also of a much shorter duration and emits less light than a normal torch, but it's still much better than a match, and is a good option for players that don't have the resources for better lights or just want to conserve.

## Usage

Press (LMB) while the torch is unlit to open the firestarter menu, or hold (LMB) while facing a fire. Hold (LMB) to extinguish the torch once lit. Pressing the holster key(default H) while the torch is lit will drop it while still-lit instead. Note that a lit torch on the ground counts as a flame source, so you can light a new torch with the flames of the old one this way.

The brand is similar, but pressing either (LMB) or (H) will simply drop it on the ground. The player can't light an extinguished brand, nor can they extinguish one manually.

While lit, press (RMB) to swing the torch/brand threateningly, which consumes some durability and fatigues the player, but has a good chance to cause wolves to flee each time.

A lit torch/brand can be used as the firestarter for campfires. When short on matches, consider lighting a torch and using that to light the campfire; that way you'll only expend a single match regardless of how many attempts are needed. An unlit torch can also function as the fuel in a pinch, albeit a very poor one giving a maximum of 10 minutes fire time at 100% condition.

Like the Flare and Lantern, a torch or brand will increase the air temperature around the player by about 5C when held. Unlike those two however, torches and brands may be extinguished by being exposed to moderate-to-high winds, so be careful when relying on them to stay warm and safe outdoors.

Polaroid Photo

A faded Polaroid photograph. You have an ability to upload a personal family photo in the game, which will replace the "default" photo.

Will Mackenzie has this photo in his inventory and can refer to in times of need. When he looks at it, he is reminded of what he's fighting for, what he has to live for. This is manifested in the game by restoring a portion of his willpower.

But, with each use, the photograph fades a bit more, as though the memories that fuel it become less specific, less real.

The Willpower photo can be "recharged" in the game, by accomplishing certain goals, navigating certain choices, progressing through the story, etc. But always, you will have to use the Willpower photo very sparingly, because you never know what dangerous survival situation might be just over the next hill.
Salty Crackers

**Calories:** | 600

**Salty Crackers** are one of the food Items available in The Long Dark.The Salty Crackers will decrease your thirst so beware. They have around 600 calories though.

## Description

* Dried, salty crackers. Will make you thirsty.
* This is the Food with the highest energy density: 6000 calories per kg, but you need to carry extra Water with you, as Salty Crackers will also decrease your hydration bar, so eating them may actually kill you if you are severely dehydrated.
Tinder

Tinder are Materials used to help in starting a fire. One tinder is always used when starting a fire, and it will be consumed regardless of whether or not the player succeeds. Tinder cannot be used to increase the length of a fire already started.

When the Skill Level for Fire Starting reaches Level 3, the player no longer needs tinder to start a fire. The player may still use tinder if they like, but since it provides no benefit, the only purpose would be to get rid of the item.

## Tinder Sources

The most commonly found material for tinder is a Tinder Plug. These can sometimes be found in buildings. They may also be obtained from harvesting a cardboard box, which will give a few tinder plugs based on the size of the box (a Hunting Knife can help break down cardboard boxes quicker). Harvesting a cedar limb will also give the player a Tinder Plug in addition to several pieces of Cedar Firewood, at the cost of at least 45 minutes to chop the wood, as well as requiring a Hatchet. Two tinder plugs may also be crafted in the radial menu by using a Stick.

Other sources of tinder include Newsprint and Newsprint Roll, also usually found in buildings or in the mines.

A Cat Tail Head will always be harvested when the player picks a cat tail. They can usually be found by frozen rivers or lakes, but not by saltwater sources like the bay at Coastal Highway

Birch bark can usually be found by birch trees (trees with a black and white striped trunk), and is abundant in the Ravine, Pleasant Valley, and high up on Timberwolf Mountain.
Lighthouse

Description

The lighthouse is a standard red-and-white striped tower, making it very, very easy to spot. The only two known ways of getting up to it are by scaling the side (the spot where the body is is the easiest) or by simply taking the path (and bridges) leading to it.

While each individual floor of the lighthouse is somewhat small, there are four of them.

Ground floor: a small room containing some drawers, a cupboard, a furnace and the door.

First floor: a room containing a bed and a cabinet.

Second Floor: some form of storage room containing pallets, a good source of reclaimed wood.

Third Floor/roof: the top dome of the lighthouse containing the large revolving bulb they are known for. Gives a decently good view of the road, the lake, the mine entrance and the whale processing plant.

Note: This is likely the only self-contained Bunker in desolation point, with its storage, source of reclaimed wood (good if you're snowed in) and heat source. The one thing it's missing is a workbench.

Note (unconfirmed): TLW (The Lighthouse Wolf), a wolf similar to Fluffy may spawn on the second floor, but cannot get down the stairs. He will not respawn after dying. (needs verification)
Reclaimed Wood

The **Reclaimed Wood** is one of the Items available in The Long Dark.

## Description

* Reclaimed wood (from broken furniture, wooden structures, etc.)

## Inside the Station

Entering the station through the front door, you will see two fridges, each containing 1-3 cans of soda, as well as shelves containing random food like Beef Jerky packages, energy bars, candy bars and/or granola bars.

Rabbit meat (Cooked)

Cooked rabbit meat can be found by taking raw rabbit meat and cooking it. This will decrease the amount of calories the meat provides by 10 (to a maximum of 50 calories for a full kG of meat), but it will improve the items condition, and make it much more difficult to gain any sort of illness when eating the meat.

Cooking meat takes time, and if the fire goes out before the cooking is finished, the meat will be returned to the inventory raw.

Item Description: Cooked flesh from a rabbit.
Player-Made Shelter

A 'player-made' shelter is some form of shelter from the elements (i.e: cold, wind, animal attack) that has been built by the player.

At the moment, there is only one form of player-made shelter; the snow shelter.

It requires 15 sticks and 5 cloth to construct.
It protects from the cold, and players can sleep and fire a rifle inside them, however, players inside are still vulnerable to animal attack.

It gives complete protection from the wind. It gives 15 degrees C protection from cold if not sleeping. When you sleep, add 3 more degrees cold protection, if you don't have a bedroll, or add the bedroll protection if you have one in your inventory.

You may keep the Snow Shelter in repair (only one or two sticks daily). If you wait several days between repairs, you may need to supply additional cloth for repair. You may dismantle the snow shelter and retrieve some cloth and sticks. If it becomes completely ruined, it will become a permanent unusable item in the landscape.

Warming up

Warming Up is one of the Afflictions that the player can obtain in The Long Dark.

## Obtaining

Warming up is obtained when the player consumes a food or drink that has been warmed up over a fire. This includes Coffee, Herbal Tea, Rose Hip Tea, Reishi Tea, Tomato Soup, Pinnacle Peaches, or Pork and Beans. The item must be consumed hot to gain the effect. The teas may be consumed at full Hunger, but everything else will require the player to have lost some calories before eating. However, the player need not eat the full item to gain the bonus.

Other cooked foods, like meat or fish, will not provide this effect.

## Effect

The Warming up condition makes the player's Cold meter decrease at a significantly slower rate. While extreme temperatures will still reduce faster, it will not reduce as fast as they would without this condition. Warming up has no effect if the temperature is higher enough to prevent the cold meter from dropping.

Eating any hot food will also provide a straight increase in the player's cold meter, although this is not affected by the warming up condition.
Picnic Spot & Pensive Pond

**The Picnic Spot & Pensive Pond** are abandoned (as one might expect) picnic areas in the Pleasant Valley region.

The Pensive Pond has a fishing cabin on it with some basic loot and a pot belly stove. By the shore you will find two boats and a small pier. Further up you will find a frozen corpse next to a backpack and some benches.

The Picnic Area is about 100m/300ft north of the pond(referencing this map) there you will find a few benches and another frozen corpse.

* The fishing hut is the only place in the Pleasant Valley where you can get fish.
* Be careful when travelling in and around the area as wolves do patrol the area.
* This is not a good place to go upon first arriving to the Pleasant Valley because of high wolf activity, Signal Hill is a better place to go.
* Potential experience spoiler: Translate the following from Icelandic "ekki sofa í veiði skála á vatninu vegna úlfur mun vekja þig"

Wolf Meat (Cooked)

**Calories:** | 700

The **Wolf Meat (Cooked)** is one of the Items available in The Long Dark.

## Description

* Cooked flesh from a wolf.

UPDATED FOR v.154

# Information

Cooked wolf meat is inferior in quality to Venison (Cooked), as it weights 1kg but yields 100 fewer calories as well as having a faster rate of decay.

As of update 0.321, meat from predators can cause parasites, both cooked and uncooked.
Skeeter's Ridge

**Skeeter's Ridge** is one of the Locations in The Long Dark. It is located in Pleasant Valley.

## Location

Skeeter's Ridge is located at the far-west end of Pleasant Valley, on a hill top above. It can be accessed via walking up the mountain (from the south) or by taking a set of 2 ropes located near Draft Dodger's Cabin.

Rifle

**Calories:** | 0

**Rifle** is one of items in The Long Dark. You can shoot the gun. You can kill Wolves, Deer, or maybe rabbits, although Hinterland (The makers of the game) would probably suggest using a Flare Gun or stones for killing a rabbit. (Stones can only stun rabbits, so you have to pick up the rabbit and twist the neck to kill it)
The Hunted, Part One

**The Hunted, Part One** is one of the Challenges present in The Long Dark.

## Overview

The player will always spawn at Skeeter's Ridge in Pleasant Valley, and will immediately be set upon by the Old Bear, who will maul and injure the character as any bear who catches the player would. This will never be fatal, but the player will be injured. The player is tasked with reaching the Trapper's Homestead in Mystery Lake.

During the game, the bear will spawn randomly nearby whenever the player enters an outdoor, non-transition location. As such, the bear will not spawn at the Carter Hydro Dam or Winding River, but will spawn in Coastal Highway or another main map.

## Tips and Details

* There is a Distress Pistol in the basement next to the starting location.
* The Old Bear will not be affected if he is shot by the pistol directly, but a flare will scare him as would the distress pistol from any animal if it hits the ground.
* Wolves are still present, but they are no different from wolves in the Voyager difficulty of Sandbox mode. They will run from the Old Bear as they would from any bear.
* The player will more than likely have no clothing because it was destroyed by the Old Bear attack. Check the washing machine and dryer in the basement with the Pistol for some clothes.
* The bear has a larger detection radius than a normal bear, and is more aggressive, like a wolf, but it will get stuck on geometry like any other bear.

Sleep

Everyone needs to **Sleep**. Sleeping will restore fatigue levels, and is also the only way to restore condition if the player was freezing, starving, dehydrated, or attacked by wildlife. To sleep, the player must find a bed, place their Bedroll on the ground, or use the bedroll action while in a car or a snow shelter. A Bearskin Bedroll can be Crafted, which is much warmer than the standard Bedroll.

## Benefits

The primary use of sleep is to restore the fatigue meter. However, it has other useful affects.

* Some Afflictions like a sprained ankle or wrist, can be healed by sleeping the required hours, eliminating the need for First Aid items. Other injuries, like food poisoning, require sleep to cure in addition to their medicine.
* It can pass the time, useful if the player needs to wait for daylight, or for a blizzard to pass.
* If done indoors or in a shielded place, the player can quickly warm up and avoid (or treat) hypothermia.
* It is by far the fastest way to recover Condition that has been lost, and is the only way to do so at a quick speed.

## Drawbacks

* Sleeping passes time, which consumes calories.
* Sleeping also increases thirst. The player may want to have food and drink on hand.
* Sleeping outdoors can cause the player to freeze.
Sprained ankle

## Effect

A sprained ankle will not lower a player's Condition by itself, but it will make the player move much slower until it is treated, and prevent sprinting and climbing.

## Treatment

To treat a sprained ankle, the player must either take two Painkillers or a cup of Rose Hip Tea. The condition will immediately be cured after this. Alternatively, they can rest for four hours, and the condition will be gone upon waking.

Sandbox

Sandbox mode is a free exploration mode with no set goal. It is currently the only game mode as of alpha since story mode isn't available. When starting sandbox mode you begin in a random location in the region you choose. The current regions you can explore are Mystery Lake, Coastal Highway, Pleasant Valley, Desolation Point, Timberwolf Mountain, and Forlorn Muskeg.

## Difficulties

There are four different difficulties for sandbox mode as followed:

* Pilgrim - For new or experienced players most interested in pensive exploration.
* Voyager - For new or experienced players looking for a balance between exploration and survival.
* Stalker - For veteran players looking for a punishingly challenging survival experience.
* Interloper - For expert players looking for the ultimate wilderness survival challenge.
Voyager

Voyager Mode is the most balanced of the four difficulties in  Sandbox Mode, (the other three difficulties being Pilgrim, Stalker, and Interloper). The game describes it as a mode "For players looking for a reasonably challenging exploration-survival experience, but not a punishing one".

In this mode, wolves will attack the player if they are detected, but can be usually scared off by gunshots or brandishing flares. There are less items in the world than in Pilgrim difficulty, the player expends more energy to perform tasks, bars such as Thirst and Cold decrease faster, and the player is more susceptible to Afflictions like Hypothermia or Food poisoning.

## Trivia

* The picture used to represent this game mode on the title menu is the owl. (although there are none in game)

* Fluffy, the dam wolf will spawn on this difficulty.
Unnamed Pond

**Unnamed Pond** is one of the Locations within Mystery Lake.

This area is just crawling with Wolf, Bear and Deer activity. It serves as a good land mark when travelling between the Camp Office and Cabin, just to the North-East. The only feature here is the hunting stand, which has some supplies, commonly a Hatchet and rarely a Survival Bow with a Simple Arrow (could be broken).

Pilgrim

Pilgrim Mode is the easiest of the four difficulties in sandbox mode (Voyager, Stalker, and Interloper being the other three). The game describes it as a mode "For players that are more interested in a pensive exploration than harrowing survival".

Wolves will not attack the player, even if they are fired upon. They will always run away from the player, unless they are running towards a lure or a Rabbit.

A bear, however, will attack the player if the player attacks the bear first. Otherwise, it will run away like a wolf will.

There are more items to be found in the world, and the player's bars decrease at a slower rate. Most notably, the player can completely ascend the Mountaineering Rope to the summit of Timberwolf Mountain in one go if they are at full stamina.

## Trivia

* Fluffy (the wolf inside of the Carter Hydro Dam) will not spawn in this game mode.
* The animal to represent this mode on the title menu is the fox (although there are none in the game).
Tiny Fishing Hut

Most fishing huts have one set of pull-out drawers, one cabinet, and two shelves along the side and back wall. There will also be a pot-belly stove and a small dent in the ice near the doorway. That dent is called the "ice fishing hole." When your cursor passes over it, will say "100 percent frozen"; if you click on it, it will ask if you want to break the ice with your knife, hatchet, or prybar. After the ice is broken, you can fish in it. To fish you need fishing tackle. To make fishing tackle, you will need a hook, a line, and a work bench. You will need to make the line and hook; cured gut and scrap metal are needed. If the ice fishing hole is not used for some time, it will start to re-freeze. In that case, if you intend to start fishing again, you will need to break the new ice.
Scrap Metal

**Scrap Metal** is one of the Items available in The Long Dark and is used in crafting and repairing.

## Description

Whiteout

Whiteout is one of the Challenges that was added to The Long Dark to create a twist on the Sandbox mode. In it, the player always starts in the Quonset Gas Station in Coastal Highway, and is tasked with stockpiling a large and varied list of supplies before a blizzard hits in thirty days.

This supplies must be dropped inside of the gas station, either simply on the floor, or placed within storage containers. Keeping items in inventory will not count towards the total. The game ends successfully once all supplies are obtained, and the fastest time is kept on the challenge screen.

The list of supplies includes:

* 15 days worth of Food
* A Hunting Rifle
* 10 Rifle Round
* A Hatchet
* 25L/6.6gal of Potable Water
* 50 Sticks
* 30 pieces of Reclaimed Wood
* 20 pieces of Hardwood or Softwood, like Cedar Firewood or Fir Firewood
* 25 pieces of tinder, like Birch bark or Tinder Plugs
* A Storm Lantern
* 4L/1.1gal of kerosene, either as Lantern Fuel or a Jerry Can

## Notes

* Bullets loaded into the rifle will count towards the total of bullets.
* Fuel loaded in the Storm Lantern does not count towards the total of Kerosene.
* While the Quonset Gas Station is mostly stripped of resources, there is still Potable Water in the toilet, which may be used. There is also a single crate for getting some Reclaimed Wood.
* The days worth of food is based on calories, so a higher cooking skill will make food better, and Reishi Tea and Rose Hip Tea count towards the totals.
* The game ends immediately when all supplies are obtained, so perishable food like meat and fish do count towards the total, even if it would decay before the 30 days elapses.
* There are two new pages in the Almanac. The first is the checklist of items needed, and the second is a weather forecast page. It will warn the player during which days blizzards are expected, how likely they are to occur, and how powerful they will be.
