ABOVE Tips and Tricks: Master Your Alpine Resort in 2026

Early Game Priorities: Shelter and Resources

Your first hours in ABOVE are critical for establishing a stable foundation. Focus on securing your shelter's basic needs before expanding. The harsh winter of the 1960s won't wait for you to learn the ropes.

Start by repairing the main lodge. This is your central hub for all management activities. Prioritize gathering wood and food from the immediate surroundings. Keep an eye on your warmth meter; letting it drop too low will slow your progress significantly.

Pro Tip: Always keep a small stockpile of emergency rations. If a blizzard hits unexpectedly, you'll have enough supplies to survive without venturing out into dangerous conditions.

Once the lodge is stable, build a simple storage shed. This will allow you to stockpile materials for future upgrades. Don't waste resources on decorative items early on; focus on functionality first. Check the Resource Management guide for a full breakdown of material priorities.

Rescuing and Managing Climbers

Climbers are the lifeblood of your resort. Rescuing them brings in reputation and unlocks new story beats. Not all climbers are the same; some will require specific medical attention or gear.

When a rescue call comes in, assess the situation quickly. Is the climber injured? Do they need a warm room or specific food? Responding to their needs correctly increases your reputation gain. If you fail a rescue, you lose potential rewards and story opportunities.

Basic Rescues

These climbers have minor injuries or are simply lost. A warm bed and a bowl of stew are usually enough to get them back on their feet. Focus on building extra sleeping quarters early.

Specialist Rescues

Some climbers have unique needs, like a broken leg or altitude sickness. These require you to have built a medical bay or crafted specific remedies. Prioritize the Medical Upgrade to handle these cases.

After a successful rescue, you can recruit climbers to work at your resort. Each has unique skills that boost different areas, such as cooking, construction, or navigation. Assign them wisely to maximize efficiency.

Route Planning and Expansion

Expanding your network of trails is how you discover new resources and climbers. Each new route costs resources and time, so plan your expansion carefully.

Start by connecting to the nearest peaks with moderate difficulty. These routes offer a steady stream of climbers and basic resources. Avoid the most dangerous paths until you have upgraded your gear and staff.

  1. Survey the Area

    Use your binoculars to scout new locations. Each location has a difficulty rating and a list of potential rewards. Mark the ones that offer rare materials or high-reputation climbers.

  2. Gather Required Materials

    Check the requirements for the route. You might need rope, climbing gear, or specific food supplies. Build workshops to craft these items in bulk.

  3. Assign a Guide

    You need an experienced climber to lead the expedition. Assign a character with high navigation skills to ensure the route is built safely and quickly.

  4. Open the Route

    Once built, the route becomes a permanent part of your network. You can now send rescue parties and receive climbers from that area automatically.

Upgrades and Unlock Order

Knowing what to upgrade first can save you a lot of frustration. The upgrade tree in ABOVE is deep, but some upgrades provide immediate, compounding benefits.

Prioritize the Kitchen Upgrade. Better food means happier climbers and staff, which increases their work speed and reduces the chance of illness. Next, focus on the Medical Bay. This allows you to treat serious conditions and keep your staff healthy.

Did you know? The "Heating System" upgrade is a game-changer for winter survival. It reduces the warmth drain on all characters inside the lodge, allowing them to recover faster and work longer during cold snaps.

After those essentials, look at the Workshop upgrades. These let you craft advanced gear for your climbers, which opens up harder routes and better rescues. For a complete list of all upgrades, see the Upgrades Guide.

Advanced Tips for Long-Term Success

Once you have a stable resort, you can start optimizing for maximum reputation and story progression. These advanced tips will help you thrive in the late game.

Manage Character Morale: Happy characters work faster and unlock special story events. Build a common room with a fireplace and games to boost morale. Rotate your staff to prevent burnout.

Diversify Your Income: Don't rely solely on rescues. Open a small shop selling crafted goods to passing climbers. This provides a steady income stream that doesn't depend on rescue missions.

Seasonal Preparation: Each season in ABOVE brings different challenges. Summer is for expansion and gathering. Autumn is for stockpiling. Winter is for survival and deep story exploration. Plan your activities around the calendar.

Explore Every Dialogue Option: The narrative in ABOVE is rich with branching paths. Talk to every character multiple times. Some secrets and upgrades are only unlocked through specific dialogue choices.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get more climbers to visit my resort? Expand your trail network and increase your reputation. Higher reputation attracts more skilled and famous climbers. Also, ensure your lodge has enough beds and amenities.

What is the best way to earn reputation early? Focus on completing rescue missions quickly and efficiently. Providing extra services like warm meals and medical care also boosts your reputation gains per rescue.

Can I lose the game? There is no traditional game over. However, if your shelter falls into disrepair and you run out of supplies, you will enter a "survival mode" where everything becomes much harder. Always maintain a resource buffer.
