How To Use The Campfire In Dark And Darker

Thankfully, using a campfire in Dark and Darker is pretty easy. You'll first need to head to the Merchants tab and go to the Woodsman. From there, you can purchase stacks of wood that will allow you to start a campfire. Depending on the color of the wood you purchase, the campfire's effects will vary in strength.

These are all of the colors of wood in Dark and Darker:

  • Grey
  • White
  • Green
  • Blue
  • Purple
  • Yellow
  • Orange

Once you've picked out your wood, find a place to stand in the dark. Next, just press your interaction button, and you'll be able to create the campfire. Remember, though, that you'll need to have the wood in your inventory before you start exploring the dungeon, or this will not work.
