Raft, the captivating ocean survival game, is brimming with secrets and hidden areas waiting to be discovered. While there isn’t one single, universally named “The Secret Room,” the game offers multiple hidden locations, each with unique loot and rewards. Let’s dive into the depths and uncover these hidden gems!
Tangaroa: The Plantation Area’s Secret Basement
Perhaps the most well-known “secret room” in Raft is the one located on Tangaroa, within the Plantation Area. This hidden basement can be accessed by taking the elevator within the Plantation Area and finding the unlabeled button in the top left corner of the elevator door frame. Pushing this button will take players down 20 floors to a secret security room containing safes, a briefcase, a unique cassette, and unlocking an achievement.
The Crane’s Hidden Stash: A Secret Room in the Storage Area
Another noteworthy secret room can be found under the crane’s control platform in the storage area. This hidden space contains valuable resources such as Titanium, food, and a Machete. Upon discovering this room, players unlock the “Boxed In!” Steam Achievement.
The Normal Elevator Secret: A Ghostly Encounter
Although removed in the remastered version, the original game featured a secret accessible via the main elevator, requiring a code to enter a hidden lobby. The code was 3792. In the original secret elevator, a ghostly Gavin would appear once the timer hit zero. Be aware that this feature is not present in the remastered version.
Other Notable Secret Locations and Items
While not strictly “rooms,” several other hidden areas and items exist within Raft that could be considered secrets.
- Rare Islands: These islands have a 2% chance to spawn whenever the game generates a tropical island and hold unique loot.
- Utopia: The final location in Raft’s storyline, Utopia, can be considered a significant “secret” as it is the culmination of the game’s narrative.
