How you know you are here
Snowed In says survive a full night at the Snowbound Lodge. House and Lodge says survive a full night on both maps. Those two badges, both created on 6 October 2026, are the official map list: a house and the lodge. On the 8 October snapshot Snowed In had 51,824 awards and House and Lodge had 22,308.
Players read the lodge name on screen and describe a snowy cabin, slush, and a blizzard. How the lobby assigns the building is not settled. One recording shows no map menu. Nightmare and Medium spoken during setup are difficulty words, not places.
If you spawn into a pantry, an upstairs main bedroom, and a bathtub hallway, you are on the house route instead.
What you can navigate by
Named landmarks from lodge recordings:
- A front door the creature opens. It is also the swap door.
- Windows with blinds. Close the blinds when a window is in your path.
- At least two floors. A throwaway third-floor line is not enough to confirm a third storey.
- A small study, mentioned once.
- Walls and the roof. The creature climbs both.
- Snow outside, which you can loop and re-enter from.
Battery shelves are only described as inside. One lodge pickup did not work, so carry more than one.
Defense on this cabin
The siege is the same clock. In one lodge run the clock read 5:41 shortly before daytime. Three stages was that player's impression, not a mode list.
The signature play in that run is the inside-outside swap at the front door: let it commit inside, slip out, hold the snow, and take the building back when it leaves so you can restore power. The power system is outside. Use the same wait as the house.
Hiding
Do not import the house closet. On Snowbound, one hunted player found no closet, and a group that tried to hide was caught. A downstairs cabinet was only a plan. Until you personally find an enclosed spot, the plan is seal, swap, and batteries.
An unexplained new-monster notice flashed on one daytime lodge moment. It was never identified. Do not add a creature because of that line. The named opponents are the description credits plus the Guilt and Skinwalker badges.
A paper ball can be picked up here. The throw's effect is not shown.
