Top 5 Places to Call Home in The Long Dark

The top five base locations you should consider calling home in The Long Dark.

Camp Office - Mystery Lake

This dude is absolutely terrible when it comes to conversation.

The Bad: There’s a dead guy who randomly spawns there and creeps me out, plus it’s not the best place in Mystery Lake to find rabbits and sticks. There are no bears around to speak of, but wolves will spawn on the nearby railroad tracks, with another pack a little farther away on the lake itself. While it’s central to the Mystery Lake region, hiking to Desolation Point or Timberwolf Mountain is a big task if you start in Mystery Lake.

You can see the Camp Office in the distance, within walking distance of some great fishing huts.

The Good: Forlorn Muskeg is easily accessible, so your forge is definitely covered. Inside the Camp Office, there are two fireplaces, crazy amounts of storage and shelves to display your gear, and an indoor workbench where you can get all your crafting done. There are even bunkbeds upstairs if you want to relive your childhood. Once you walk outside the Camp Office doors, there are deer that spawn so close you could shoot them from your porch, and the fishing huts are also close by. The Camp Office is a smart choice if you’re setting up in Mystery Lake, although to hell with the dead guy.
