How to consume the Early Worm in PEAK – Well Rested Badge
PEAK players can earn the Well Rested Badge by finding and eating the Early Worm in the GLOOM biome. The badge is one of ten added with The Final Ascent update and also provides cosmetic-reward progression.
The pink worm appears on the ground in GLOOM, the fourth biome when starting from Shore, and can be eaten immediately after picking it up by holding the left mouse button. It restores hunger and sleep effects but not injuries; players should also watch for mist and enemies, as darkness can cause potentially fatal sleep damage.
In short
- Find a pink Early Worm in GLOOM.
- Eat it directly to unlock Well Rested.
- It restores hunger and sleep, not injuries.
Explained simply
PEAK is a cooperative climbing game in which players guide mountaineers through a series of biomes, managing needs such as hunger, sleep and injuries as they go. GLOOM is the fourth biome on a route that begins at Shore, and its darkness and mist can make climbing hazardous.
The Well Rested Badge is one of ten badges introduced in the game’s The Final Ascent update. Badges recognise particular in-game actions, while also contributing to progress towards cosmetic rewards.
