๐Ÿ’ก Essential Tips for Survival

โœ… Do This

  • Read the information menu at game start
  • Stick with your team - solo is dangerous
  • Listen for audio cues from Twisteds
  • Manage your stamina carefully
  • Use closets to hide when Twisteds are near
  • Communicate machine progress in chat
  • Share bandage/medkit locations

โŒ Avoid This

  • Don't sprint constantly - save stamina
  • Don't ignore your teammates
  • Don't hoard tapes - spend them wisely
  • Don't panic during chases
  • Don't fail skill checks - they alert Twisteds
  • Don't steal bandages from those who need them
  • Don't jump into primed (99%) machines

โš ๏ธ Beginner Mistakes to Avoid

Most new players lose early matches because they rush objectives without understanding enemy patterns. Always observe enemy movement before acting. Take time to learn Twisted behavior patterns before attempting risky plays.

Another common mistake is ignoring trinket synergy โ€” combining speed and stealth trinkets greatly increases survival rate. Don't just equip random trinkets; think about how they work together with your chosen Toon's abilities.

๐Ÿšซ Top 3 Mistakes

  • Rushing without scouting: Always check for Twisteds before moving to new areas
  • Poor trinket choices: Random trinkets won't help - plan your build
  • Solo play mentality: This is a team game - communicate and coordinate

โ“ FAQ

Q: What is the best beginner character?

A: Characters with balanced speed and stamina are easiest to learn. Poppy and Boxten are excellent starter choices because they have no major weaknesses. Check our character guide for detailed comparisons.

Q: Should beginners focus on combat?

A: No. Survival and positioning matter more than fighting. Dandy's World is about avoiding enemies, not defeating them. Learn to hide, use stealth, and complete objectives efficiently. Combat should be your last resort. Focus on mastering Twisted avoidance first.

Q: How long does it take to learn the basics?

A: Most players grasp core mechanics within 5-10 matches. However, mastering Twisted patterns and optimal trinket combinations takes longer. Practice consistently and learn from each run.
