Obenseuer/Getting Started

There is a whole 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 10 main player stats, 8 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 2 are special, but we'll talk about them later.

Depression

Depression is one of the main game features, if you can call it that. To get rid of it just live a better life - grab a beer or pizza, sleep in a warm cozy place, etc. If nothing helps you can also use 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 surely 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 here 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 bad 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 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!
