Stranded is a 4-12 player horror survival game where you and your friends are survivors stranded on a cursed island. An evil entity known as the "dark stalker" approaches players, offering them life in exchange for killing another survivor.

HOW TO PLAY

The rules of the game are straightforward.

There is 1 engineer, while everyone else is a survivor. The engineer must find and repair the radio tower to signal for help.

Repair parts are scattered across the island and must be handed to the engineer, as they are the only one that can fix the broken tower.

There are 3 ways to win: Find and Repair the Radio Tower, Find and Fire the Flare Gun (instant win), or Escape on an Abandoned Ship with only 2-3 members of your crew.

THE DARK STALKER

The island is haunted by an evil spirit known as the “dark stalker”. The stalker approaches players individually as they explore the island. Players have two choices: Work with the stalker to kill a fellow survivor, or sacrifice themselves instead.

If they choose to work with the stalker, they can continue to help their team once the deal is complete.

SURVIVAL

The game features three survival mechanics: Warmth, Hunger, and Sleep. Players must ensure these stats do not run out at any point in the game, or they die.

To refill warmth, keep the central campfire lit. Warmth goes down as you drift away from the campfire.

To refill hunger, eat berries found in bushes around the island. Just keep in mind that a small percentage of these berries are poisonous and cause instant death.

To refill sleep, press Z at any time. The only catch is that you cannot see anything while you are sleeping.
