Episode 4 of our Don't Starve - Reign of Giants Beginner's Guide Series, and this time we're taking a deep dive into the topic of Food! I explain the mechanics of hunger and starvation, and go over all the best nutritional ways to cure an aching belly, restore a sound mind, and heal a broken body.
Included are 4 top-tier crock pot recipes you'll want to know by heart and a few other food items to keep on hand so you can focus less on food, and more on everything else!
Although this guide focuses on the single player Reign of Giants version, all of these strategies apply to the other DLCs as well as Don't Starve Together. This guide is up to date for the current 2020 version of the game.

When I first started playing the game I did a decent amount of Vanilla before moving on the Reign of Giants, and if I remember right, in Vanilla you either can't get ice at all or can't use it in the crock pot.

  • I just discovered something. Catcoons are an EXTREMELY easy source of food (If you're sadistic) because unless you're a character with low damage, you can kill a catcoon before it attacks you ONCE with something as simple as an axe. This is because of the extremely long hissing animation, which allows you to get like 3 free hits in. This doesn't work if the catcoon has already hissed at something else, because then it will just attack you right away. And their hitboxes are completely broken.

    • It's true! The only downside is that they are a finite resource of food, because one they're lost their 9 lives, they're gone forever. But usually it will take you QUITE a while to exterminate them all, especially given the wide variety of renewable food sources that are also available.

    • Nice! I've been teaching the game (DST and RoG) to some close friends during the pandemic, and find that telling them things while playing helps, but having a separate resource like these videos is also pretty helpful. They're finding that coming back to the videos every now and then is also very useful. These guides are, by design, pretty information dense and hard to absorb in one sitting, especially if you don't have a lot of experience in the game. But when they play the game for a while and then go back to the videos, they have a lot of "ah-hah!" moments where things suddenly make a lot more sense and "click' in their heads :)

  • Another great way to spend way to much access monster meat on is fish sticks, since they can be used as a pretty good filler, and great for underground exploration due to the excessive amount of depth worms, and even better, if you have a base in the wilds in dst, you can use eels as the fish.

    • I'm not a super big fan of fish, as they spoil much faster than morsels, and fishsticks has the same nutrition as pierogi but half the shelf life and double the cook time (though that last one usually doesn't matter a whole lot). That said, it is sometimes kind of fun and relaxing to go fishing, unless you're doing it during the day and have to keep dodging frogs LOL Best way to fish though is one or two times each from multiple ponds. As you fish more from the same pond, the catch time increases, which then makes it take much more time to get the same amount of fish as you could have gotten from multiple ponds.

  • Best food: honey nuggets. If you have 3-5 bee boxes, it produces a lot of honey and 3 honey and a monster meat is a honey nuggets. it's an awesome healing item it keeps you well fed, it doesn't costs as much, and it spoils slowly.

    @verestoyjanos5013@verestoyjanos50133 жыл бұрын
    • From a bonus points perspective, honey nuggets is actually negative value food! Honey x 3 (28.125 food points) + Monster Meat (valued at 12.5 if turned into a cooked egg) = 40.625 total ingredient food points. So you're losing 3.125 food points by turning those ingredients into honey nuggets. And although the nuggets have a decent 15 day shelf live, that pales in comparison to the honey itself that has a 40 day shelf life! Personally, I would rather just eat the honey raw! A better meat and honey recipe though is the Honey Ham - 30 healing (compared to nuggets 20) and 75 food points (compared to nuggets 37.5) with the same cook and spoil times as nuggets. Although it does require either a monster meat and a big meat or some other combination of more than 1.5 meat value. All that said, whether or not a given dish is good or not is situational. If you have a ton of honey and monster meat but few other ingredients and need healing, the nuggets might be a good idea. It all just depends!

    • Sounds like a good plan to me! And don't worry if you're struggling with the game starting out. This is one of those games that has a pretty steep learning curve, not because there is anything particularly difficult or complex, but rather because there are SOOOOOO many little things you need to be mindful of that, not accounted for, will lead to an early grave! But definitely come back regularly, and use the "Contents" section in each video description to brush up on topics you need to work on :)

For example, you can periodically harvest a bunch of cactus from the desert, find a place that has lots of green caps, make lots of jerky, set up bee boxes and make taffee, kill walruses to get a Tam o' Shanter, catch fish and make Surf n Turf. There are LOTS of ways to boost sanity!

    • Eggs can be gathered from Pengulls in Winter (sometimes - they like to guard them) but the better way to get them on demand is to make a bird cage, catch a bird with a bird trap, and then feed any meat (monster meat has to be cooked first in single player DS) and it will pop out an egg for you! Corn and eggplant can only be grown through farming, and mandrakes are a limited resource that doesn't even appear in all worlds, but can sometimes be found growing in the ground somewhere.
