Resources Guide

A resource hub for wood logs, herbs, gemstone veins, mandrake, crafting materials, and early bottlenecks.

Quick Answer

Steam names wood logs, herbs, gemstone veins, and mysterious mandrake as dungeon resources. Start each run with one missing material in mind, and check enemies, gathering nodes, and merchants instead of collecting without a settlement goal.

How To Use This

Settlement Yield Fix in v0.4.29

The developer fixed a bug where the selected dungeon's environmental effects incorrectly changed resource yields and extra item drops in the settlement. This is a settlement calculation fix. It does not confirm a new clay route, enemy drop, or gathering location.

Confirmed Resource Names

Steam explicitly names wood logs, herbs, gemstone veins, and mandrake as dungeon finds. Use those as a reliable starting list, then read the recipe or building requirement in your current save before deciding what the next run needs.

What Makes A Good Resource Page

Before a resource run, pick the building or recipe you want to finish and check its missing materials. For clay, use the dedicated clay guide linked below for reported enemy drops and trading options. Avoid committing supplies to several unfinished upgrades at once.

Avoid Fake Map Claims

Until the dungeon generation rules are known, location claims should be careful. Randomized floors, regions, merchants, and environmental effects may make static map advice misleading.

What Players Can Rely On

  • The public Steam description mentions collecting wood logs, herbs, gemstone veins, and mysterious mandrake in dungeon exploration.
  • The settlement layer includes crops, rations, camping supplies, forge stations, research, and equipment.
  • Resource routes should connect dungeon finds to settlement upgrades and expedition readiness.

What Can Still Change

  • Earliest source for each named resource.
  • Which resources are renewable, finite, traded, crafted, or dungeon-only.
  • Resource bottlenecks for rooms, forge gear, food, research, and camping supplies.
  • Changes to clay availability and other material bottlenecks after patches.
  • The v0.4.29 settlement yield fix does not establish new dungeon drop routes or quantities.

Before Your Next Run

  • Name the item blocking your next building, craft, or expedition before you enter the dungeon.
  • Check enemies, gathering nodes, and merchants when searching for a missing material.
  • Reserve rare finds for the upgrade that solves your current bottleneck.
  • Do not assume one drop location guarantees the item on every randomized run.
