How to win as a Survivor in Evil Dead The Game

Good, bad—we're the ones with a gun.

Since Evil Dead looks a lot like Dead by Daylight, players may assume that the rules are the same—but they aren't. Being a survivor is a lot more time-consuming than it seems, and you must follow multiple steps to succeed. The following list of straightforward steps tell you exactly how to win as a survivor in Evil Dead: The Game.

Steps to win as a Survivor in Evil Dead The Game

  1. The first step is to locate the scattered Map Pieces on the map.
  2. Map pages lead you to Necronomicon Pages, which you can pick up by standing close to them for about 10 to 15 seconds.
    • Your location will be known to a bunch of undead during this time, all of which will attack you. You can easily defeat them as a team.
  3. Now, the Kandarian Dagger will appear. Pick it up via the same process used for the Necronomicon Pages.
  4. Finally, you can kill the Dark Ones who appear on your mini-map. To fight them, you just need to hit the button prompt using the Kandarian Dagger (Ctrl key on a PC). While doing so, you need to dodge their attacks.
    • It's super easy, just dodge whenever the Dark Ones attack and keep using the Kandarian Dagger. This does not take very long because the Dark Ones have three small health bars.
  5. Close the breach.
    • Just walk up to where they were, then the next part will begin.
  6. Defend the Necronomicon. This is the only tricky part, since the undead will target the book that is just flipping pages in the air. The book needs to continue doing this for a little while before it's done. If you defend the book from the undead before they can do too much damage to it, you'll win.

These tasks themselves are relatively simple. The undead are easy to kill, especially with your team. What makes Evil Dead a challenge is trying to accomplish all of these tasks while dealing with the demon player. Demon players don't die, they just stop possessing enemies, which makes them a constant obstacle. They can possess undead, trees, cars, and whatever else they need to stop you.

Also, the demon player's best move is to appear as a big boss with a lot of health. In this form, they are pretty powerful and have a variety of spells depending on their class. You can usually take out the demon player relatively easily if you have a team of survivors and you work together, but you do need a competent team for that.
