Getting tired too fast in Sons Of The Forest? You need rest!
In a survival game like SotF, your character’s hunger, thirst, and tiredness levels have a huge impact on your experience. If you are getting tired, your combat will get affected and worse, you may die. Here’s how to not be tired in Sons Of The Forest through sleep, rest, and more things to keep in mind.
Energy will get depleted if you don’t rest, don’t eat, and don’t hydrate yourself. To reduce tiredness levels and avoid draining your energy and stamina so often in Sons of the Forest, follow these steps:
The more you exhaust yourself, the slower you will be. You won’t be able to sprint or attack well. Plus chopping trees will be a daunting task. Players have to manage their running, energy while using a weapon, carrying logs, and other tiring tasks carefully.
If your stamina is draining out too fast, this could be an early access bug (at the time of writing) which will be fixed in the full-released game.
To be able to sleep and restore energy (and save game), you will need to build a shelter. You can use a Tarp to build a shelter and interact with it when you see the crescent moon icon. More details below.

Here’s a quick video tutorial that explains this process.
The reason why you can’t sleep in the game is that there are mutated creatures nearby who are stressing you out. Eliminate them and come back to your shelter to have a peaceful sleep. You can also level up your shelter and add a fence/gate to keep them out.
That’s all about resting and how to reduce tiredness in this game. Stay tuned to our Sons of the Forest guides on Gamer Tweak for more survival tips and items that you may need to know about.
