Sons of the Forest: What do the HUD Icons Mean

    As you step into the immersive world of Sons of the Forest, you'll encounter a plethora of icons scattered across your screen, each representing vital aspects of your character's well-being and environment.

 

Health Bar

 

    The red semicircle symbolizes your health points, indicating your current state of vitality. Keep an eye on this bar, as it reflects the extent of damage your character can endure before succumbing to the perils of the forest.

 

 

Stamina Indicator

 

    The blue-green bar represents your stamina, essential for performing physical activities such as running, climbing, and combat. Monitor your stamina closely, as exhaustion can leave you vulnerable in the face of danger.

 

Armor Gauge

 

 

    Surrounding the health bar is the armor indicator, showcasing your protective gear's durability. Whether it's mutant armor or tech armor, each segment of this bar signifies a piece of armor shielding you from harm.

 

 

Camouflage Eye

 

    Next to the muscle symbol lies the eye, serving as a stealth indicator. Crouching enhances your camouflage, making it harder for enemies to detect your presence. The emptier the circle around the eye, the better your concealment.

 

 

Hunger, Thirst, and Rest

 

    Above the stamina gauge are three vital symbols: a droplet for thirst, a chicken leg for hunger, and a moon for rest. These icons reflect your basic needs, with fuller rings indicating better fulfillment of each requirement.

 

 

Strength Level

 

 

    As you do more activities, your character's strength level goes up. Having a higher strength level gives you more health points and stamina, making it easier to survive.

 

 

    Now that you understand what each HUD icon means, you're prepared to face the challenges of Sons of the Forest. So venture forth, brave adventurer, and may the forest yield its secrets to you.
