How to improve the camp in Loop Hero - the list of available buildings and bonuses from the construction of buildings

 

Loop Hero combines roguelike elements with serious resource management. However, the game does not seek to explain the rules of this management, so some of the mechanics seem incomprehensible and not obvious. In this guide, we will tell you how to improve the camp in the game and why you need it.

How to improve buildings in the camp

Loop Hero is a replay game. Each time you participate in a regular cycle, your character moves in a circle. Along the way, you'll collect equipment, resources, and maps that you can use to add different types of monsters and geographic features to the loop. At any time, you can return to your camp and use resources to build new buildings.

After your first loop, the game explains how to build buildings using the resources you collect. A menu with various building options will become available. However, there are no clear instructions in the game on how to upgrade these buildings.

To do this, you need to click on the building in the camp. Two buttons will appear on the left. One gives you the ability to disassemble an already finished structure, and the other allows you to improve it. As you would expect, improvements cost a lot of resources, but they are definitely needed. All the buildings in the game are useful and add variety to the gameplay.

As mentioned, you will need a ton of resources to make all the improvements. If you need help on how to farm content, be sure to check out our guide.
