In this guide, I cover the basic crafting recipes, essential resources, tools, and survival tips in Casualties: Unknown. I show which items you should craft first, how to collect and store important materials, and which tools you need to unlock additional crafting recipes. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to improve your survival progress, this guide will help you understand the basics and get started.
First Crafts
Plastic, Bio-Chem Fluid, Foliage, Wood, Scrap Metal: These are all the basic resources you’ll need during the early game.
Canteen: Used to carry or scoop up fluids.
Tip: I recommend using your first canteen to hoard Bio-Chem Fluid before anything else!
Be careful! A canteen will automatically fill with whatever fluid it touches in the world, even when you’re not holding it. Put it inside a bag to avoid contamination.
Foliage Bag: Lets you hoard more garbage! (And keeps your canteen safe c:)
Flimsy Knife: Not a weapon; it’s your first crafting tool.
The Flimsy Knife has the [Cutting] quality, which lets you craft many new recipes you couldn’t make before!
It only has around 8 uses, though. Upgrade to a more durable Crude Cleaver before it breaks, or you’ll have to start over.
Cooking
Be sure not to miss the small Fire, Hammer, and Knife icons attached to the recipes.
These indicate whether you need a campfire, a [Hammering] tool, or a [Cutting] tool to craft the item.
