Enshrouded is a fantastic survival game that can compete with other industry stalwarts, including Valheim and Palworld, among many others. Now, you have probably purchased your own copy of the game, eager to fire it up and jump right in. However, the game is quite complex and if you dive headfirst, you will have a hard time surviving in its harsh environments.
So, what exactly should you do then in order to survive out there? If you are looking for some useful tips for beginners, then you have come to the right place!
Summon Survivors
In the game, you can enter Ancient Vaults to rescue some survivors. These are useful NPCs that offer different services depending on their expertise. For instance, the Carpenter gives you access to blueprints that allow you to craft certain things, such as the Chandelier, Banquet Table, and Stone Fireplace, just to name a few.
That said, whenever you rescue a survivor from their respective vaults, you have to summon them to your base by using the aptly named Summoning Staff. In order to get your hands on one, you need to craft the staff via the Crafting Menu. Just get a single piece of Twig, which can be found in random foliage scattered all over the open world.

Secure Your Items
Enshrouded really embodies what it means to survive in a harsh world. One of the ways the game showcases this is by making you lose your items when you die. Well, you will not lose everything; just those that are inside your backpack.
Now, if you want to secure some items, you can put the most important ones in your hotbar. When you do this, the items you've placed on there will still be in your possession even when you are killed.
Pick the Right Foods
In Enshrouded, each food that you can find in the game provides you with different buffs. The simple Purple Berries, which you can find abundantly on bushes, grant a slight boost to your health regeneration when consumed.
Foods that require more ingredients and cooking time give even better buffs. The Meat Wrap, for example, provides a considerable boost to your Constitution stat and lasts for a whole 45 minutes.
With that said, whenever you embark on a long journey, be sure to bring some food with you to help you along the way.
