Lethal Company Beginner Guide — Your First Shifts, Terminal and Free Moons

A new Lethal Company crew has three working days to sell 130 credits of scrap, starts with 60 credits, and loses every piece of scrap on the ship if the whole crew dies. Most early wipes come from a handful of avoidable decisions, not from bad luck. This guide covers what to buy first and at what price, the terminal commands a ship operator actually uses, the three easy free moons, how the facility and weather work, when the ship leaves, and the early monsters and mistakes that end runs.

Lethal Company Moons and Store Guide — Every Moon Ranked, Every Item Priced

Lethal Company has eleven moons you can land on: six free and five paid, from 150 to 1,500 credits. They differ in risk, interior, scrap and how early outdoor monsters appear. Only a handful of the store's tools and upgrades are worth buying early. This guide puts every moon and store item in one table each, then covers which moon to farm at each quota stage, which paid moons are worth the fee, what to pack per moon and the buy order for one, two and four players.

Lethal Company Monster Guide — Every Creature and How to Survive It

Lethal Company has more than thirty creatures, and most deaths come from using the right instinct on the wrong one: staring at a Bracken, crouching from a deaf Thumper, or running from Eyeless Dogs that hunt by sound. This guide starts with a table of every monster with its danger, how it detects you, whether it can be killed and the counter that works, then covers each creature, stun times, spawns by moon, traps and sound cues.

Lethal Company Quota Guide — When to Sell, Which Moons Pay and What to Buy

The profit quota starts at 130 and rises after every quota you meet, by a bigger step each time. You get three working days per cycle, the Company pays only 30% of the value on the first day and 100% on the deadline day, and a whole-crew wipe deletes every piece of scrap on the ship. This guide covers the quota cycle, selling and the overtime bonus, which moons pay at each quota size after route costs, what scrap to carry, when to buy upgrades, and the mistakes that end runs.

UI and subtitles are in English. Text is minimal, but the community has produced Japanese localization mods.
A co-op survival horror where you scavenge scrap on derelict industrial moons to hit your company quota. 4 players collaborate to outwit monsters and gather enough scrap, with quotas rising every 3 days.
No — buy-to-play (around 9.99 USD on Steam). Cheap, with dozens of hours of co-op fun.
Start with the free moons Experimentation and Assurance. Have one player stay aboard the ship operating the radar and guiding the squad through the facility. Buy a flashlight and shovel, and prioritize hitting quota.
The Bracken (flower head) attacks if you stare at it for 3-plus seconds — glance and look away. The Coil-Head freezes while watched — never break line of sight. Most monsters react to sound, so crouch-walking and panic control are key.
