wikiStatusConfirmed item; mechanics documented only where sourced

Flares naturally fit a game about regrouping separated friends. House House names flares in the official tools list, and the local release build contains a gun-shaped model labelled flaregun.

What does the flare gun do?

  • Appear in the official Tools and Toys list as a signaling item.
  • Use a gun-shaped mesh named flaregun in the local build.
  • Provide the group’s most obvious long-distance signal option.

What is still unknown?

The following details are not treated as facts until they can be reproduced in a released session or documented by House House:

  • Whether the flare is loud, visible at range, or both.
  • How many flares a group can carry.
  • Spawn locations and cooldown behavior.

Evidence: official feature list and FAQ from bigwalk.game, plus the locally installed macOS Steam release build inspected August 2026. This page states only sourced facts; anything unconfirmed is explicitly marked unknown.
