Game Journalism - Day 5

How to beat the challenge: Take all the stuff from the starting cabin then explore. That's where I got stuck.

Every major building helps you on the way.

All of these have a large assortment of stuff along with a stove and bed in an airtight room:

This one has allot of supplies but no sealed building:

You need weapons? This one usually has a bow and arrow and ammunition:

Need cloth? These buildings have 10-20 pillows that you can cut:

The train area usually has flares, a knife and some medical supplies (useful for exploring seeing as how you sprain a WRIST when walking on an uneven surface sometimes:

How far I got:

The challenge of course is to get the distress pistol from Timberwolf mountain and fire it from some lighthouse. I found neither but I thought these places were one of them:

This is the furthest I explored: 

It whet to some dead end train track.

You can find flares for the the distress pistol at the starting cabin but it is rare and it only happened to me once:

If your lucky enough to find a lot of the buildings mentioned above or more that I did not find, then you will only need to worry about sleep and warmth as you should have enough food and water from the buildings. Personally, I got lost in the dark and gave up way more often then I died. When you do find an airtight building take advantage of it and full your sleep meter as you will not die from freezing. just make sure your food and water are full and you have a light source for night exploration if necessary. From there it's just explore, explore, explore, explore, lose, reset, explore, die, give up.
