Stranded Deep: The best tips for survival

In this article, you will find the best tips for surviving in Stranded Deep. After a plane crash, you end up alone on a desert island. With these tricks you make the best of your situation.

Survival tip 1: Conquer the seas with the raft in Stranded Deep

You can't stay on the island for long. To survive, you need to expand your hunting area:

• Since you quickly run out of stones and branches, you have to look for more on other islands.
• Use a raft instead of the lifeboat because it is faster on the water.
• You need eight sticks for the raft. It's the same crafting recipe as that for a foundation. However, it must be placed in the water.
• When you arrive on a new island, leave the boat on the side where you arrived. How to find your home island again.

Survival tip 2: Explore wrecks

In Stranded Deep you can find all kinds of useful things in wrecks:

• So dive as many wrecks as possible.
• Be sure to look out for sharks beforehand. If you want a shark fight, don't use a spear, but a machete or knife.
• In the 'Hard Cases' you will find engine parts or other useful items such as a machete.
• If you find an 'air tank', you can stay under water longer.

Survival tip 3: Tips against hunger on the island

Hunger also quickly becomes a nuisance. How to get the need under control:

• When the hunger and thirst bars are full, your health regenerates.
• Coconuts grow on palm trees. These fall down automatically when felling. Alternatively, you can climb up the palm tree and pick the coconuts. Hit the coconut with the ax until it's 'Dinkable'. Then you can drink the coconut milk. Then hit the coconut again. So you can eat the halves individually. You can open the right coconuts with our home tip.
• You will also find some crayfish on the island. However, these are not recommended as food, as grilling over the campfire takes a long time.
