Your first priority is gathering 3 wood to craft a map. Getting lost in the forest is a death sentence, especially at night.
Use 5-6 logs to upgrade your campfire to level 2-3. This expands your safe zone and keeps the Deer monster at bay.
Search nearby cabins and structures for valuable loot, especially wooden chairs (5 wood each) and metal chairs (3 scrap each).
