Len's Island may seem like a cozy crafting game with fa🌌rming and exploration. However, it may catc🌱h you off guard with some mechanics that pose a challenge, especially in higher difficulties. There is a lot to manage to make sure you don't run out of resources when you need them.

There is a good chunk of combat and exploring dungeons in the game, which also requires you to🌌 prepare well beforehand. By focusing on the correct skills and upgrades, you can make your gameplay a lot easier after employing some bas𝐆ic strategies.

Prefer Wood-Building Over Other Materials

Wood is an easier resource to farm quickly, especially as the entire world is loaded with trees. You can chop them down to get a yield of around six to seven pieces. So you should prefer using it to build structures൩ over any other material. You do need a lot of wood, especially during t🦋he early-game.

As you explore mines, you will be asked to repair structures with wood to go further inside. Many blueprints obtained at the start also require wood, such as the Bed, Workbench, Campfire, and Baitbox.

Build Smaller Houses

The house you make at the beginning is not your permanent home, so do not invest many resources in building it. You only need to set up two Wooden Foundation squares to have enough space to place some basic facilities inside🦋.

Before you head into dangerous places, you can make a very small house with only one Foundation block, to place a bed inside. You can set it as your spawn point, so you don't have to walk all the way again, considering how slow your walking spꦕeed is 💝at the start.

Get The Farmer's Gear

A major source of your income will be farming, and you can do that by purchasing seeds from the Steph in Bridgewater Town. Seeds cost Gold, but purchasing the Farmer's Gear, you won't ne𒁃ed to buy many.

These are easily missed as you may ignore it as some decoration, but near the table in the shop, you will find them available for purchase. By getting both the Farmer's Hat and Famer's Bandana, you can increase your chances of getting some seeds back while harvesting.

Recycle Old Buildings

A convenient mechanic in the game is recycling everything you build to get your resources back. If you plan to wish to upgrade your houses and use better materials to b꧂uild them, you can get everything you spent on it.

You will be placing structures in the mines as well to traverse around and reach new areas. Once you are done exploring, make 💧sure to get it all back, especially when you don't need to go there anymore.

Always carry some woo♕d before you head into the mines. If you have a limited amount, you can continue to recycle and build as you go further.

Always Keep Some Blueberries

Exploring the world in Len's Island is definitely not cozy, as you will need to combat continuous hunger drain. If you run out o🅠f food, you will be afflicted with starvation,♓ which depletes your HP till you replenish yourself.

To prevent it, collect Blueberries whenever you see them in the open world. It is a free food source which you will get before you start farming. It doesn't replenish your health, but fills up your Hunger. You c﷽an get a decent 𒀰yield from every Blueberry bush you see, enough to explore uninterrupted.

Eventually, you can start fishiﷺng and hunting to obtain meat, which ꦯrestores your health significantly.

Clear Dungeons Quickly

Dungeons are loaded with enemies, and to complete them, you will also need to defeat a certain number of enemies near the end. The more you stall, the harder it's going to get, as you will also run out of resources eventually.

You don't have to engage with every single enemy🍷 in the dungeon. Ignore the larger enemies if you are not strong enough to beat them. We recommend defeating smaller enemies more to level up quickly꧃.

You should also wear armor꧒ to reduce the💛 damage received from enemies.

Do Not Sell Extra Crafting Materials

During the early-game, there are fewer ways to earn Gold, so you will be tempted to sell the materials you worked so🐼 hard to gather. We recomꦆmend refraining from that, unless you really need to.

You will find yourself completely unprepared when you really need them, and it will get annoy🐻ing to farm it all over again. Imagine being stuck in a scuffle, but you sold all your resources that could save yoꦯu.

The Notice Board in the town is very missable, and t𒁃o upgrade towns, you will need resources as well to unlock new features.

Focus On Combat Skills First

In the Skills menu, there are different types of skills, which will make your gameplay less tedious. We recommend unlocking the combat skills first if you want to stand a 🌄chance against tough adversaries.

You don't need to unlock farming and crafting skills, especially during the early game, as even if it's a bit less convenient, at least you can get things done. Your tools are formidable enough to handle these basic tasks.

We also recommend up💃grading you🐻r weapon on the anvil.
