This game is very popular among kids as well as adults. It has a guidebook titled the forest crafting guide, which is very beneficial to learn the survival techniques in the game.
Introduction to the game:
This game was first introduced by a renowned game brand: Endnight games. The official name of this game is The Forest Game. It is a horror video game that teaches us the survival techniques for the open world.
Crafting in the game:

Crafting in the game is done when two slightly different items are put together to form a completely different product. To compose an article of interest, all its relative components are brought together on the inventory by right-clicking each of them. When all the items are right-clicked, a gear will appear in the space below. If the right-clicking is done in the proper way, the required item will be produced in a blink of an eye.
Example of Crafting:
There is an item in the game that is named Molotov. In order to craft it, we have to bring a cloth and booze by right-clicking on them and bringing them together on the Crafting Mat. Then, right-click the final product, Molotov, to add it to the inventory.
Following is a list of the crafting products and the final product or material which is produced by combining them:
- Herbal medicines + Energy mix = Aloe vera
- Poison arrows + Poison upgrade = Amanita mushroom
- Arm effigy + Small effigy = Large effigy + Custom effigy + Glider + Arm
- Molotov + Fire upgrade + Bomb + Fire arrows + Incendiary spear + Damage + Upgrade = Booze
- Slingshot + Bomb + Flashlight upgrade = Deer skin
- Crafted club + Skull lamp + Hanging skull lamp + Bone + Chandelier + Decorative skull = Skull
- Five sticks + Two ropes = Snow shoes
- Two ropes + Three rabbit fur = Rabbit shoes
- Coneflower + Chicory + Aloe = Super energy blend
- Lizard skin + fifteen leaves = Stealth armor
- Two deer skins + rope = Water skin
- Two sticks + One rock + Two Cloth + Ten sap = Repair tool
As we can see, these terms cannot be quickly learned, so we have to guide ourselves to survive in this game. This guide is provided by the title of The Forest Crafting Guide.
Weapons for survival in the forest:

There are many different kinds of weapons used for survival. Some can be crafted by putting different products together, while others can be bought. The most common weapons are listed below:
Crafted axe:
There are two ways to get this weapon. Firstly, you can find the products which will make this weapon after combining them. These products are a stick, rope, and rock. Secondly, you can get it by killing a cannibal.
Slingshot:
It is an excellent tool for hunting rodents and small reptiles like lizards. It can be made by combining a stick, cloth, and electrical tape.
Crafted bow:
It is used to aim at harmful objects by the arrows. It can be made by combining a stick, cloth, and rope.
Fire arrows:
They are instrumental if aimed right at the target. But they have to be lit first to cause more damage than the regular arrows. Five fire arrows are made at once by the combination of cloth, booze, and any type of five arrows.
Bomb:
These bombs are used in the form of grenades. They have to be thrown at a selected target from a distance in order to cause a considerable amount of damage. These bombs can be formed by bringing booze, a circuit board, a coin, a wristwatch, and an electrical tape on the crafting mat by right-clicking on each of the items.
Clothing and Armor:
In the game, the defensive suiting or what we call in actual life as clothing or armor is termed as Skins. The skins are used as a protective layer against the damage caused by the enemies. An attack can damage the skins, but we will not be dead instantly. Some of these clothes cannot be harmed by any kind of attack. These are the snowshoes and the rabbit fur boots.
Stealth Armor:
It is an updated version of the basic one that is the lizard skin armor. That one is provided to everyone at the start of the game. It does not have many advantages, but the stealth armor reduces the chances of being seen by enemies. It can be crafted by right-clicking on lizard skin and leaves. Leaves can be collected by any tree which is present nearby.
Storage pouches and skins:
They are used for storing different items for later use. You can have a water skin which is used to store water for drinking purposes. Also, you can collect berries and mushrooms for eating purposes as well as for crafting. And can also have a stick bag to collect your sticks. It can store as many as 20 sticks at a time.
