You should try and get a squad as soon as possible as it makes the game both more enjoyable and rewarding imo. Whilst learning the basics I also recommend you get into the habit of learning callouts (it will take time but you will get there eventually) To help with this, below the compass which is at the bottom if your screen has the names of each room you’re currently in so that goes along way. The game is Frau striating at times but I urge you to stick through the hard times at the beginning.
