Roblox Forsaken Beginner’s Guide

Forsaken is an asymmetrical horror game on Roblox inspired by classic Roblox myths. The game pits one killer against eight survivors in timed matches across multiple maps. Survivors must complete objectives and survive until the timer runs out, while killers aim to eliminate all survivors before time expires. Understanding the basic mechanics, character roles, and map objectives is essential for both new survivors and killers.

How Forsaken works

Matches in Forsaken revolve around a timer that counts down to zero. Survivors win by staying alive until the timer expires. Killers win by eliminating all survivors before time runs out. The timer can be reduced by completing objectives scattered across each map, and increased when survivors die.

Survivor Tips for Beginners

Survivors have three main roles:

Sentinels like Guest 1337 and Shedletsky can stun killers to protect teammates. Survivalists like Noob and 007n7 have abilities that help them survive longer in chases. Supports like Elliot and Builder Man heal teammates or provide defensive utilities.

Managing stamina is crucial for survival. Never let your stamina drop to zero as it takes significantly longer to regenerate from empty. Try to keep stamina above 25 at a minimum during chases. Walk around corners and obstacles to regenerate stamina while maintaining line of sight on the killer. Use stamina in short bursts rather than sprinting continuously.

Always keep an eye on the killer's position. Some killers will try mind games around obstacles or buildings to catch you off guard. Use outside corners as checking points to track the killer's movement. Don't stand still and hide in corners, as this makes you vulnerable to ranged attacks from killers like Cool Kid or John Doe.

Work on objectives, but don't spend too long on them if you're a support character. Characters like Elliot and Builder Man are better positioned to help teammates than to complete generators alone. Leave objective work to Survivalists like Two Time, who lack teamwork abilities. Maintain good team balance by switching characters if there are multiple of the same survivor, as duplicate abilities lose effectiveness. Items like medkits and Bloxy Cola spawn around maps. Save them for safe moments when the killer is chasing someone else.

Killer Tips for Beginners

Killers must maximize efficiency to eliminate all survivors before time runs out. Focus on weaker survivors first, particularly supports like Elliot and Builder Man who have less health. Avoid chasing any single survivor for more than 30 seconds, as this wastes valuable time that could be spent pressuring multiple targets.

Stamina management matters for killers too. Don't drop below 25 stamina during chases. Hitting zero stamina means longer regeneration time and gives survivors opportunities to create distance. Learn when to break off chases and switch targets if a survivor is too difficult to catch.

Know your killer's strengths and abilities. Cool Kid excels at area control. John Doe uses spike traps and teleportation for map pressure. 1x1x1x1 applies constant pressure with mass infection and can trap survivors with entanglement. Jason relies on close-range melee combat with bleeding effects.

Pick your chases wisely by targeting healers first to reduce the team's survivability. Avoid chasing stunners like Guest 1337 or Shedletsky early on unless necessary, as they can waste significant time with well-timed stuns. Save these targets for later when other survivors are eliminated.

Use abilities with short cooldowns liberally. Don't be afraid to miss occasionally with low-cooldown abilities, as the punishment is minimal. However, be conservative with high-cooldown ultimate abilities and save them for guaranteed hits or critical moments.
