Lori’s Nightmare: A Beginner’s Guide

Learn how to survive in Lori’s Nightmare! Our beginner’s guide covers essential strategies for this Roblox horror experience.

Lori’s Nightmare is a classic Dead by Daylight-style survivor horror experience on Roblox. The players on each server get sort into two teams Children and Nightmare. The Children have to survive and fix four TVs before the timer runs out to escape The Nightmare while the latter hunts and kills them. Once someone from the Children’s team gets killed, they can be revived, or they respawn after a few moments.

The game can become quite high-octane, as each character gets a special ability. You can also collect coins scattered around the map. You can buy new characters with the coins.

This article will be a beginner’s guide to Lori’s Nightmare and explain the core gameplay loop of the Roblox survivor game.

If you are one of the Children, your primary objective is to finish restoring the TVs to win the game. Follow these steps to become a master.

• Try to locate the TVs as fast as possible.
• Pair up with other Children in the game to restore TVs faster.
• You restore TVs by playing a mini clicking game. You have to move and click on the circles that appear on the screen as fast as possible.
• Keep moving around to not get caught. Use closets and tiny spaces to escape the Nightmare.
• You can opt to revive children who have been killed. However, do note that The Nightmare might be close by.
• Your screen will become grainy when The Nightmare closes in on you.
• Use your special skill as much as possible. Lori is the default character and her special skill is to run faster.
• Collect coins scattered around the map to unlock more characters.

How To Buy More Characters

You can unlock more Children characters by buying them. The more expensive ones have stellar abilities. For example, the Pincat can create a Decoy of itself, which can be useful to fool The Nightmare. There is one called the Spy, which can reveal the position of The Nightmare to help the whole team. Some also have passive abilities, such as increasing the speed of restoring TVs.

Follow these steps to buy Children characters:

1. After spawning into the game, click on the ‘Children’ button on the left side of the screen. Do note that it only appears while in the starting area.
2. Scroll down and look through the whole list.
3. Select any character that you want. Each has a different price.
4. You can either buy them using Coins you gather while playing the game. Or you can get Coins by using Robux.
