Basic gameplay[]

In Among Trees you need to collect resources needed to expand your cabin. The resources are acquired by exploring the forest for them.

You need Food and water to survive. Water can by acquired by drinking from a lake, river or pond.

Food sources are either mushrooms, fruits, vegetables or fish. Cooking them will give you a greater amount of saturation.

An additional food source is honey.

Controls[]

Your Vision is moved via mouse. Some key controls are:

w/arrow up: move forward

a/arrow left: move left

s/arrow down: move backwards

d/arrow right: move right

esc: pause game

Tips and Tricks[]

In the beginning, search for Points of Interest for Fir Planks and other salvageable items. These are required to build the initial expansions to your cabin (including the Crafting Room that allows you to chop down trees for more Fir Planks). Not all POIs have planks, but the ones closer to the cabin do.

Until you build the Storage Attic, inventory space is very limited. Focus on storing Fir Planks, salvageable items and only the required items to expand your cabin. There is no need to hoard food (berries & mushrooms) early on, as it's very easy to find food as you explore. Keep eating any food you find to top up your Hunger meter and free up space in your inventory.

Save Honey for Bear interactions later in the game.

Don't discard items excessively; you might need them later in the game. Items from POIs (except planks) shouldn't be discarded, as they cannot be recovered. However, you can loot a small amount of salvageable items from POIs every day as the wooden crates respawn, containing one item each.
