This article was created on 10/24/2022. The system is being worked on, some things may change.
FYI: This mode is only on the new map Isla Titania!

What is Gauntlet?

This mode was created to introduce a new challenging method of infinite growth. Instead of time balancing growth, it uses food drain rates instead.
Gauntlet has tremendously increased food/water drain and growth rates past 1.2.
This mode also introduces a leaderboard, which players can compete with others using growth.

Entering Gauntlet

Reaching 1.32 growth, you're given the choice to continue growing. If you choose to grow you'll enter the "Gauntlet" - You'll notice your food drains faster overtime.
Some info about these rates taken from public test 2's patch notes:

  • The 30% increase in baseline food drain rate now begins cutting in at 1.2 growth and is in full effect at 2.0 growth
  • The 15% increase in baseline water drain rate now begins cutting in at 1.2 growth and is in full effect at 2.0 growth

A few tips for Gauntlet

Scavenger and botanist have gotten a new meaning. It may be wise to invest into them.
You can get sick after 1.2 be careful.
During night, you'll be greeted with a "resting" buff. Resting lowers food drain rates by 75% (soon to be 55%?), and water by 50%. This is huge for larger animals.
Being in a large group may be detrimental, as others can take away resources.
