Shrunken down to the size of ants—smaller, actually—you’ll need to look high and, mostly low, to find water in Grounded 2. As you’d expect from a survival game, you’ve got a hydration meter to keep in check, and while there are a few ways to satisfy your liquid lust, some are certainly better than others.
Below, I’ll go over all the ways you can get water early on so you don’t dehydrate. If you’re curious what happens when you dehydrate, you’ll get a big, scary alert at the top of the screen telling you to “drink or die”, and it’s as straightforward as that: if you don’t find water in two minutes, you’ll drop dead. It’s not too bad, though, as your backpack can be collected from wherever you perish.
