All Darkest Hours Items

Pre-alpha Darkest Hours randomizes three items per trial instead of a shop (a future store is planned). Slots map to hotkeys 1–3. Optimal triples combine utility (Radar/Camera Monitor), defense (Metal Bat/Revolver/Riot Shield), and healing (Burger/Pizza/Space Sandwich). See item tier list for rankings.

• Burger (B-tier, healing) — Restores health when consumed. Useful after taking entity damage during objectives.
• Camera Monitor (A-tier, utility) — Place up to 3 cameras and remote-view areas. Excellent for Capture objectives and team callouts.
• Metal Bat (A-tier, defensive) — Stuns entities on hit with timing. Grants brief escape window before stun immunity activates.
• Pizza (B-tier, healing) — Heals the player. Keep for post-chase recovery.
• Radar (S-tier, utility) — Beeps and shows entity distance in studs with color coding. Essential on Blackout and Fog trials.
• Revolver (A-tier, defensive) — Ranged stun tool. Fire to briefly stop pursuing entities.
• Riot Shield (A-tier, defensive) — Blocks entity attacks from the front. Coordinate with teammates for revives.
• Riot Coil (B-tier, mobility) — Speed boost coil for quick repositioning during Escape Trial.
• Soda (C-tier, healing) — Minor healing item. Use when safe between objectives.
• Space Sandwich (B-tier, healing) — Reliable healing food item for mid-trial recovery.
• Speed Coil (A-tier, mobility) — Temporary speed boost. Save for Round 4 Escape or emergency chases.
• Teddy Bear (C-tier, utility) — Distraction or comfort item with limited tactical use compared to Radar or Bat.
