Summary
This is highly recommended to read if you're new and have no idea about the game. This provides you crucial information in surviving each night and assaulting the Rake.

Survival
Unlike the original, it's a lot easier to survive in the fan remake, if your device's screen brightness is high enough and having a sharp eye, you can detect Rake first even if you have nothing on your hand, just be aware of your surrounding, if you hear sniffing noise the Rake is near you.

If you hear static, the Rake is close to your location, run to the opposite direction of where the Rake isn't heading, not in zig-zag way, Rake is a monster, not an alligator

If you don't have a Map, try to locate landmarks, finding the Cave will mean a Cabin is nearby, and which the Shop is also nearby, follow the path, the Airplane will always indicate that a Shop is nearby. You'll soon memorize the entire map if you play the game long enough.

Vital Items for Self-defense
If you're on the defensive, then here are the recommended items to survive in the night :


 * Flashlight (Your first light source)


 * Slender's Secret Cola (For temporary infinite stamina, perfect for fleeing)


 * Night Vision Goggles (Highly recommended for those who can't see clearly through the night)


 * Stab Vest (Additional health, increases your survivability)


 * UV Lamp (Blind the Rake temporarily without even touching it, perfect for fleeing)


 * Prototype Stunstick (Stuns the Rake even longer than a normal stunstick, perfect for fleeing. Only available if you have 750 survivals)


 * Decoy (Your bait when fleeing)

Vital Items for Assaulting
If you're on the offensive, then here are your recommended items to assault the Rake :


 * Stunstick (Stun and Damage the Rake)


 * UV Lamp (Stun and Damage the Rake)


 * Slender's Secret Cola (Temporary Stamina, Perfect for stunning the Rake constantly)


 * Stab Vest (Additional health, increases your survivability)


 * Bear Trap (The only offensive weapon that can be bought from the Shop)

Assaulting the Rake
If you have the recommended items above, it's time to for an assault on the Rake. Of course, you're going to need a handful of survivors to assist you in the assault, if not, then good luck.

During the intermission (day), it's the best time to mobilize the server together and to resupply your resources. It's highly recommended to set all bear traps at the shop if you have any leftover credits.

'''It's highly recommended not to stun the Rake too early. If you and the others did, you'll experience an infinite night and makes the server unplayable unless a contributor (not all) joined to fix the problem or an admin joined who will simply shutdown the server.'''

Surviving Blood Hour
If Blood hour occurred, run to safety as best as possible. Both stunsticks and UV Lamps are ineffective against the Rake during this mode, so using bear traps is your only hope of defeating the Rake. If Rake is crawling, his speed will be reduced but soon will be changed after he gets up, so take advantage of this (stunsticks and UV lights still doesn’t affect Rake when crawling).

Surviving Nightmare Hour
If Nightmare hour occurred, do the same thing as in Blood Hour, run. However, it's very risky to defeat the Rake during this mode since it can't be stunned and one hit can lead to your death. It's best to distance yourself from the Rake as he can outrun you in sprinting speed and stay alerted.
