Also, you can store 12 items on your raft that can only be used when you're at a dock. Scout can carry 12 items in her inventory and an additional 6 can be carried by Aesop. Inventory management plays a major role in The Flame in the Flood but perhaps a bit too much as you'll be in and out of the inventory menu constantly. Unfortunately, this Scout wasn't prepared for a wild boar encounter Your body temperature is affected by the weather as well as what type of clothes you're wearing so you'll have to upgrade your wardrobe and use campfires to warm up if you start to get chilly. Resting is done at campsites or makeshift shelters but keep in mind that for every hour you rest, your hunger and thirst grows. Hunger and thirst are satiated by eating and drinking water (of course) but be careful about what you consume because uncooked meat, certain plants, and contaminated water can all leave you worse for wear. As you dip below certain thresholds, alerts pop up onscreen letting you know that it's time to address it. Aside from surviving the dangerous fauna of The Flame in the Flood, you'll also need to keep an eye on four separate gauges that track your hunger, thirst, body temperature, and fatigue. As you get further down the river, you'll start encountering more dangerous animals like wolves and bears that are more than happy to make you their supper. Scout has no attacking abilities on her own so to hunt wildlife, you'll need to craft things like snares, spear traps, and tainted bait if you want to eat more than dandelions and corn for the rest of your existence. Scavenging these areas mostly consists of searching crates, harvesting plants, and hunting animals. Wilderness areas are low on supplies but may have animals to hunt, churches provide a good place to rest and usually have healing supplies lying around, and campsites always have a fire where you can cook food and warm up. These explorable areas come in several different varieties and are indicated by unique icons as you're rafting. As you float down the river, you'll also come across larger expanses of land that can be explored and scavenged for food and supplies. Crashing into these obstacles will start to smash the raft to pieces and Scout unfortunately isn't much of a swimmer. You'll regularly be swerving to avoid all sorts of hazards including newly formed landmasses, large houses, and trees (some of which are now drifting down the river along with you). Throughout much of The Flame in the Flood, you'll be navigating Scout's makeshift raft down the river. ▶️ I guess we now know why they call them rapids │ Just like in nearly all our reviews, you can watch Tyler play The Flame in the Flood below so you can judge accordingly. A mysterious promise of refuge lies beyond the near-infinite river and Scout is determined to find out if it exists. A monumental flood has created a massive river over what was once civilization resulting in few patches of dry land left to provide a haven for the two travelers.
