Captain Clark
One Step Ahead and Ottoman Empire confirm chase and death states. Keep the route readable and regroup before guessing safe spots.
Complex Furnishings Survival Guide
Use badge-confirmed facts to plan safer runs without inventing exact AI behavior, spawn timing, sanity math, or safe spots.
Threat index
What public badges confirm
Rope Trap
Cut Loose and No One Left Behind confirm self-rescue and teammate rescue. Keep one player rescue-ready in co-op runs.
Sanity
On the Edge confirms near-zero sanity can happen and be survived. Treat low sanity as a turn-back cue until formulas are public.
Mimic
Not Quite Right confirms discovery, but exact tells and behavior still need stronger public proof.
Still Life
Failed Copy confirms a first encounter, but spawn behavior is not claimed here.
Run rule
Survive by protecting the route first
When threat pressure rises, stop optimizing furniture and rebuild the route. Captain Clark, rope traps, and sanity pressure all punish teams that split too far or keep carrying after landmarks disappear.
Common mistakes
Avoid unsupported shortcuts
- Do not trust exact safe spots without current public proof.
- Do not treat sanity as a known formula until thresholds are verified.
- Do not split the rescuer from the carrier when rope traps are a concern.
