Content Warning: All monsters and items in Content Warning Guide

A spider-like creature with a flat face that shoots webs and kills the trapped prey.

Avoid getting stuck in the web and run away.

A tall mannequin with a kitchen mixer for a head.

Dodge its dash and make it run into walls.

A strange frog-like creature with a wide stance and small eyes.

Dodge its attack and quickly film it before it disappears.

A star-shaped creature that lives on ceilings and will pull players towards the ceiling and trap them for some time.

Throw an item at it by holding down the Q key to charge your throw.

A slow, giant round monster with tentacles coming out of it. Can also suck players in with wind currents.

Run away and use walls/corners to avoid getting sucked in.

A rarely-seen shadowy figure that grabs and quickly kills players that it touches. Often accompanied by a loud noise.

Shine a flashlight directly on it to make it disappear. The camera’s light works too.

A massive creature as tall as the ceiling with with sharp teeth, large humanoid body and small head.

Don’t get spotted or if he spot you run and hide, it will kill you fast.

A Iron Maiden-like trap that kidnaps a player and forces their teammates to solve a Captcha puzzle to free them in 15 seconds.

Solve the Captcha puzzle. If the friend fails three times, the trapped player is killed.

A big, fast-moving liquid blob.

It’s mostly harmless. Just get away from it so it doesn’t kidnap you and separate you from the group.

A small robot armed with a machine gun with a red laser.

Stay out of sight and hide from it’s red laser.

A short costume-like ghost holding a knife that will attack you.
It will make an attacking stabbing a few times and give it some time, it might go back for another attack.

Dodge the first few knife swings and it will run away. Be wary of subsequent attacks.

Don’t make any sound and don’t sprint but if he hear you scream loudly into your microphone to overwhelm it and force it to flee.

An alien-like creature that throws explosive grenades at you before blowing itself up.

Bait it into throwing bombs at you and then run away when it starts glowing. Get a safe distance away before it detonates.

A short creature with massive eyeballs all over its head and sharp, stubby arms.

Don’t point your flashlight directly at its eyes or it will become aggressive. When its pupils get small, it’s angry.

A jellyfish-like creature with dangling legs and wide sticks protruding from both sides of its head. Flicker is the deadliest enemy in the game. Your screen will flash red briefly, indicating its presence. If you look at it, you’re dead. It will freeze you and then kill you.

To survive, you just need to avoid looking at it.

A ghostly figure with no legs.

Just run or hide, idk.

A massive worm-like creature with two huge arms that chases down players to grab and throw them.

Just run away. Your sprint is much faster than it. Be careful not to run into one while your stamina is depleted.

A snail-like creature that walks upright and slowly chases players around.

Just run away. It’s way to slow to catch you, but they can overwhelm you if they show up in large groups in confined spaces.

Destr
-The Animal Statues show up as a pair of 2 stone statues. One is a bunny, and the other is a duck, a sort of play on how the side view of a bunny looks like the side view of a duck and vice-versa.
-Upon picking up the duck statue the player starts to slowly ascend upwards, taking small amounts of damage over time, and cannot be stopped except for one way.
-To stop the floating, a teammate will have to pass the floating player the opposite statue, and they will be returned to the ground with only minor damage.

Gears
-Gears are sprawled throughout the factory map, constantly turning and whirring and abuzz with life. However, they do pose a serious threat if you aren’t paying attention.
-Gears do a bit over half the players health in damage, and cause them to go flying in most cases. This makes them a formidable foe when blindly running away from enemies.
-Make sure you always know where you go.

Container
-The container is a mysterious item. It’s a large, grey cylinder with a radioactive waste sign printed on it.
-The Container emits the sound of a Geiger-counter, or commonly referred to as “radioactive noise” for some reason.
-Holding the Container for too long will kill you.

Lights
Everything in the Lights category is just a different version of a flashlight, for example, and they get brighter as they get more expensive.

Medical
The Medical tab has two very important items: the Hugger and the Defibrillator. The Hugger is the only way to heal in Content Warning, allowing you to hug your friends to top off their HP. The Defibrillator, as you might expect, allows you to revive fallen teammates if they have an unlucky encounter with a monster. Make sure to get footage of their corpse for some extra views, though.

Gadgets
In the Gadgets section, you’ll find tools that will improve your videos and help you get more views. The Boom Mic will amplify the audio of anything that you point it at, getting you more overall views. The Clapper lets you make a funny clapping sound that will drive your friends crazy. It also gets you more views if it’s in your video. The Goo Ball is a sticky grenade that you can throw to slow down monsters, perfect for capturing some stable, steady footage. Finally, the Shock Stick is a melee weapon that lets you defend yourself from creatures.

Emotes
The two Emote tabs are self-explanatory. Purchasing emotes will let you dance and do backflips, among other things. Performing an emote on camera should get you more views, but we’re not too sure about this one yet. Either way, it’s funny. Buy them if you have any spare cash.

Music
The Music section is short.

Best Items to Get First
Finally, let’s go over some of my picks and recommendations for the best items you should get in Content Warning.

Your mileage will vary of course, but here’s what I’ve found to be extra helpful in my own runs:

– Long Flashlight
– Goo Ball
– Boom Mic
– Clapper

The Long Flashlight is pretty decent even if it’s not necessarily the best money can buy in Content Warning. It gets the job done, doesn’t break the bank, and will likely serve you well for most of your runs. You’ll also want to consider picking up the Goo Ball to help you deal with enemies and unexpected encounters, and if you use them properly, chances are good that you won’t even need to heal or revive anyone.

Finally, the Boom Mic and Clapper are great for just increasing the quality of your videos to help you earn more money, and more money means better gear and more cosmetics. These aren’t really priority items, but once you’ve gotten a good feel for how the game plays, you’ll find that these can be invaluable during your runs.
