Risk System in West Wood Remake
The risk system is one of the most important aspects of the game. Risk will increase every time a wendigo sees you, or for every day you survive. This guide documents confirmed sources and thresholds.
Community wikis publish a consistent risk source list that tracks against the badge API. Official descriptions do not state a formula, cap, or how risk changes gameplay beyond the threshold behaviors.
Confirmed risk sources
- Stepping into a beartrap: approximately 8 risk.
- Surviving a night: approximately 10 risk.
- Getting hit by the wendigo: approximately 2 risk.
- Using a flamethrower on the wendigo: contributes to risk.
Threshold behaviors
- 50 risk: You're In Danger badge triggers. No confirmed gameplay change.
- 70+ risk: Wendigo can ignore beartraps.
- Higher risk: Wendigo is faster and deals bigger damage.
Do not infer a Beast phase, damage multiplier, or maximum from the names. Observe the live system and separate the badge threshold from any gameplay effect. The safe operating assumption is that rising risk is a reason to reduce optional travel, not a timer with a known formula.
