Navigating the perilous nights in **99 Nights in the Forest** demands foresight and resources, and among the most critical items you’ll need are **bandages**. These vital supplies are your primary means for **reviving** fallen teammates and offer a crucial lifeline when playing solo and unable to **self-revive**. While many can be scavenged from the wilderness, understanding the **crafting** process at a Tool Workshop provides a reliable way to ensure you’re never caught unprepared, using readily available resources.
How to Craft Bandages in 99 Nights in the Forest
You can **craft bandages** at the **Anvil** in **99 Nights in the Forest**, though the crafting station may not look the same every time you play. The **Tool Workshop**—a big, grey building marked with an anvil icon—typically houses the crafting station. Depending on your world and the current event, the map icon can be a different color, and the workshop can appear in different conditions. Normally, you can chop the branches blocking the entrance down with any upgraded axe or a chainsaw. During a meteor shower event, a lava version may appear, destroyed in a fiery rain of spacerocks. You’ll just have to pick up the pieces of the Anvil around the building and put it back together to get it up and running again.
To craft a single bandage, you will need:
Campfire Level 4
An upgraded axe or chainsaw
2 Rabbit’s Foot
2 Wolf Pelt
How to Use the Anvil
Before you can make anything, you’ll need to interact with the bench beside the **Anvil** and select the **bandage recipe**. Then place the ingredients on top of the station one by one, and they should snap into place—it can be a little finicky, so if it says you’re missing something, pick it back up and try again.
There’s a cooldown between **crafts**, so you’ll have to make one bandage per day if you have extra materials. A good tip is to just dump surplus materials at the station instead of hauling them back to camp to save yourself a trip.
How to Get More Bandages in 99 Nights in the Forest
You can **get more bandages** by finding them in chests, buildings, or just hanging around out in the open. Unfortunately there’s a bit of RNG involved, so you may hurt for them more in some runs while struggling to find enough storage space in others.
Here’s a quick list of other ways to get bandages:
Locate the **hospital** after upgrading to **Campfire Level 3**; there’s usually at least two or three inside, plus a medkit and other valuable resources.
Unlock the **Medic class** to start with two extra bandages and a handy buff to revive teammates.
