Drake Hollow is a cooperative or single player survival game with a focus on leveling up little Drakes. These creatures tend to a base while you go out to scavenge for more supplies. You’ll move through the seasons to face new problems, discover hidden secrets and try to find your way out of this weird and twisted world.

The world of the game features many challenges, and things you’ll have to figure out in order to survive. This is all about defending your base from raids and other problems that show up while playing. Hopefully these guides provide some sort of extra assistance in order to get that done with details being found below.

It can be rather difficult to defend your camp within Drake Hollow and hopefully these strategies will assist in doing so. Within the game you’ll be building various structures, and eventually raid events will take place. Some of these are rolling situations that happen periodically, whereas others may be story based. The main goal is to protect structures from taking damage, and you largely do this by deploying fencing.

There are lower fences, and higher tier ones within the starting portions of the game. The base fence that’s short should be the initial perimeter you have, place that around a decently large area. Make sure you’re collecting lots of lumber on your island and the various places you happen to visit. It’s important to have stocked up for the end game situations so make sure you have lots of wood to use later on. If you collect too much of it inventory wise, add extra quantities to your depot for storage.

Anyways, place this fencing tightly around your initial base area and perhaps leave some room to grow as the second season offers many more structures for you to create. Once this is built, you can sit behind it during a raid. The enemies will attack just the fence allowing you to hit them through it. Once you’re in the second season things get more complicated. I would suggest keeping that inner short wall as a back-up while adding a more powerful high wall around the smaller one. Create gaps so you can walk between it. I would suggest watching where enemies attack during raids against this larger wall. At those places add another small wall in front of the larger ones.

You can hop on this small wall to hop over the large fence and also use it as a delay so you have time to get around to defend those portions of the wall. Don’t forget that you can repair wall pieces by clicking in the right stick (or platform equivalent) for management area. From there hold X on the damaged structure to get an option to repair it. Be careful protecting your base and this will be added to when additional information is available or changes are made to the game. This is displayed in the video below along with a display of a line in action. Good luck surviving out there.
