Arr, matey,

It's beene many a moon since I laste sailed the many seas of me old home worlde, 4546B. I am growing olde now, and I doubt I will ever gette to see those beautiful waters againe. Therefore, since ye have beene such a good friend to me over these many yeares, I am passing on to ye the clues to reach me pirate booty.

Aye, there be ten clues that will lead ye to me treasure, arr. Each one consists of a vague picture and a shortte poemme. If ye can decipher me clues, they will lead ye to treasure beyonde your wildeste dreams! Diamonds, rubies, silver, and golde! 

Take me shippe- the Arctic Peeper- and some supplies I've cached for ye, and get goin'!

Good luck, and may the fortunes of the alien seas be with ye, matey!

Your favorite pirate, arr,
- Cap'n Peeper

This save file for Subnautica: Below Zero features a treasure hunt across the many biomes of 4546B. There are ten clues with a picture and corresponding poem, as well as a vague treasure map. In order to find the treasure, which is a massive cache of silver, gold, rubies, and diamonds, you must follow the clues in order while dealing with all hazards you may find along the way.

The game mode in this save file is Survival Mode, but ample food, water, and health kits have been provided for you. A SeaTruck and several tools have also been stashed for you at the first clue, which is right next to the life pod. 

While spoilers are minimal, this save file is recommended for those who have already played the normal story of Subnautica: Below Zero at least once before. The story has been largely untouched aside from the intro cutscene, blueprints, and a few location-related PDA prompts, but some of the original challenge and mystery has still been removed. Story-related blueprints are still hidden. 

This save file does not require any mods at all. To install it, simply download the save folder and extract it to the ...\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\SubnauticaZero\SNAppData\SavedGames folder on your computer. The final digit in the save file name (slot000X) must be different than all of your other save files.

If you play this treasure hunt, please don't hesitate to leave feedback! I am hoping to make more treasure hunts like this in the future and would like to know what could be improved. In particular, please feel free to let me know what you think about:

  • Is the clue format easy enough to follow? What would you change?
  • The difficulty of the clues. Are some too easy? Too hard? 
  • Is 10 clues too many? Too few?
  • Is there something different that would make for better treasure?
  • Is there something else I should stash at each clue to help players? Should I stash fewer assists?

I would really appreciate your feedback! I might even be open to working with others on future treasure hunts if a big enough idea is out there!

If something urgent comes up, feel free to tag @mitchrandom1 on Twitter.
