Biomes (Ruins) | Don't Starve

Don't Starve Walkthrough → Biomes (Ruins)

You've conquered the first level and fancy yourself a cave explorer? Well, well. Welcome to the RUINS, which will make even the most unprepared adventurers howl and claw at the walls.

According to Maxwell, the collapse of civilization in this place was due to the use of fuel.

After exploring the first level, you likely found a sinkhole filled with thulecite. You've probably even climbed into it and already respawned on the first level, near the meat dummy.


Preparing for the descent:

First, we need to return to the surface to replenish our resources and food.

We'll need a miner's helmet (and light bulbs/fireflies), a tent, a meat dummy, a hat, gears, Chester, and, of course, meat dishes (there are no rabbits on the second level, which makes life easier).

Dishes Ingredients Famine Health Reason Peculiarities

  • Meat stew Meat x3 + Vegetables x1 150 +12 +5 You can add 4 units of meat or take 4 ingredients: frog legs, honeycomb or vegetables.
  • Jerky We hang it on a drying rack 25 +30 +15 Nutritious and good for the mind. Long shelf life.

We return to the cave, smash the meat dummy, the hat-maker, and the refrigerator with a hammer, and, passing the hare village, descend into the ruins.

Setting up the base is no different from the first level. The only difference is that you need to place it away from the nightmarish lights and statues.
