Let me give you a quick introduction as you embark on this journey!


[h3]Acquainting Yourself with the Wilderness![/h3]

[h3]Join a Camp with Free Food and Events![/h3]


Exploring and surviving in a new world can be easier with a buddy (or two). Check out camp recruitment notices at the shelter entrance to find camp buddies and access a variety of camp events. Safety and security come in numbers!

You can either join an existing camp or create a new one. To create a new camp, fill out required information and send a recruitment notice. The camp is formed when at least six survivors respond. To join an existing camp, simply submit a request to one that suits you.

Once you're part of a camp, enjoy free meals at the camp dining hall between 11:30-14:00 and 17:30-20:00 each day. Pro Tip: Try to come in for meals to restore various stats and gain certain buffs!

Undawn:How Do Survivors Thrive in A World Full of Danger? 100 Ways to Survive

In a post-apocalyptic world, a healthy lifestyle is the key to survival.

How do survivors thrive in a world full of danger and uncertainty? We need to understand the most basic survival system in UNDAWN.

When entering the Raven Shelter, we will receive a Survival Health Monitor from Dr. Michael, which can intuitively display the status of our BODY, MENTALITY, HYGIENE, and METABOLISM metrics.


(Health Monitor)

[h3]BODY[/h3]



The most ideal body type is Average! Being too lean or bulky will have some impact to your status. To achieve an Average body, exercise is the way to go.

[h3]MENTALITY[/h3]



Mentality metrics is divided into three states: Exhausted, Tired, and Awake, which affects the survivor's gathering speed. To alleviate fatigue and tiredness, simply getting a good night's sleep will solve the problem.

[h3]HYGIENE[/h3]



Dirty skin or clothing can easily attract attacks from zombies!

To stay clean, just wash in a clean water source.


[h3]METABOLISM[/h3]



When the bladder and stomach reach a certain volume, the body will feel uncomfortable. Remember to metabolize in time.


Wait...

There are three more survival metrics that were almost forgotten to introduce!

They are Hydration, Hunger and Health.

Dehydration will increase the rate of energy consumption and can lead to death in severe cases. To avoid this, simply drink water on time.

If you're feeling hungry, your gathering speed will getting slow. So feed yourself before starving!

Low health will increase damage you receive, but it can be improved by using antibody drugs. In addition to bandages and First Aid Kit, some foods can also restore a moderate amount of health!
