There is a lot going on in Open Sewer and it can feel a little confusing, but don’t worry, this guide will help you with some basics.
Player Stats
There are ten main player stats, eight of those are displayed on the bottom left part of your screen when they differ from ideal values by 33% or more, changing their color gradually from green to pulsating red. Remaining two are special, but we'll talk about them later.
Depression
Depression is one of the main game "features". To get rid of depression just live a better life - grab a beer or pizza, sleep in a warm cozy place, etc. If nothing helps, you can also take depression medicine from pharmacy.
Smoke need
Nicotine addiction forces you to smoke another cigarette from time to time. Maximum smoke need won't kill you, but it will increase your depression. If you want to get rid of it completely just start smoking less (or stop smoking at all) and eventually it will go away.
Alcohol need
Alcohol addiction works basically the same way as a nicotine one, but there is a nice touch - being drunk also reduces your depression!
WC need
Shows you how much you need to visit that one special place. There are many toilets across the map, some of them are free, some are not. You can always skip it and pee yourself or crap your pants, but be aware that you eventually may die from shit seizure (yes, this is a thing).
Sleep need
That defines how tired you are. Be careful as you can collapse from exhaustion right on the street and that may lead to some unforeseen consequences.
Health
Pretty self-explanatory, health is good for not dying. To restore your health temporarily you can get painkillers. For more permanent solution visit a doctor (just don't eat turnip a day before that!). Blue shrooms also restore your health, but you won't get them easily.
Thirst
How thirsty you are. Drink water and/or alcohol and you'll be fine.
Hunger
How hungry you are. Eat some food, you turnip head!
SMV
Stalburg Mushroom Virus, or simply SMV, is a dangerous disease that awaits you in the world of Open Sewer. Disease progression level and progression rate are two hidden stats that you have no direct control of. Eating those funny looking mushrooms, drinking bad water or simply doing shady things like sleeping on the street may get you SMV infection. It will start slowly, but eventually it will kill you because there is no cure. You can, however, visit a doctor frequently to check for its progression and even perform a surgical removal of the surplus fungus that will buy you some time. Drinking pure ethanol or even methanol will also slow down SMV progression, but this is really dangerous for your health.
First Steps
You start with a border inspection. Answer those questions how you see fit, however it's advisable to ask border guy some questions yourself, who knows what you can get from him.
Your main task for the first night is to basically survive and for that you will need money. There are many ways to earn some Open Sewer Coins, but the easiest one is to do some bottle recycling. Right in front of the border inspection building you will see a couple of people, you may speak with them and they will give you a couple of quests along with some valuable information. O-Market is the first obvious place where you can get some precious money for those bottles and there is some food and drinks for you too. It's located just down the starting street. Bottle recycling is also a great way to explore Open Sewer! Keep in mind that dumpsters and trash bins are a valuable source of bottles and other stuff, check them regularly as all items in the game are randomly respawning from time to time. Avoid dangerous places such as canals, don't forget to watch your stats and you'll be fine.
While doing that you can locate your tenement and speak with your only resident. However, you still need to find a place to sleep and sleeping outside or in that empty tenement of yours is a really bad option, so it may be a good idea to visit Bazaar and spend a night at the inn. You can find Bazaar by following huge neon signs, can't miss it. Bazaar is also full of various traders and other characters, so it's highly advisable to visit it as soon as you get some money.
Managing Your Tenement
Your tenement can become your main source of income and your base of operations, but you need to put some money and resources into it first. It would be wise to start with your own apartment (which is the first one), so you can actually sleep there safely and stop paying for an inn. Go speak with Rob Madsen about that, he has a workshop right across the O-Market. To renovate your apartment you will need 150 OC (75 of which you have to pay in advance), 5 planks, 5 nails, 3 duct tapes and a sheet of metal. All of that can be found on the streets, but if you have some spare money you can simply buy it from general trader in the Bazaar. Renovation will take some time so just move on and do other tasks, bu be ready to pay the remaining amount when it's finished. After securing your own place you can focus on other apartments to be able to rent them and get constant money flow.
Have Fun
Now you should have almost everything for a start and there are many things to explore and experience in the world of Open Sewer, so just go ahead and have fun! Don't forget to share all issues you find to the official OS bugtracker.
