I've beaten this game, and I can say that there's no way you can beat it on your first try)
I spent almost the entire first day exploring the world, talking to the villagers, and figuring out the quests and mechanics. I managed to survive the first night, but not the second.
Then I learned about the lampposts, and the game really took off.)
It was really fun to play, you can come up with your own creative strategies and tactics to get through it—but I don’t know if it’s theoretically possible to survive until 12 night?
I couldn’t make it past 10, apparently, you have to play quickly and keep up the pace.
Great game.
