Raft is a survival game where players will drift on a sea, forcing them to rely on salvages to stay alive. In their journey, people will come across some islands, where they can find precious commodities like food and wood.

However, there’s more to do in Raft than wander around aimlessly. Players can discover what catastrophe has led the world into this condition, where nothing but the wide blue sea dominates the horizon. To start the story mode in Raft, rafters must first reach the Radio Tower.

How To Reach The Radio Tower In Raft

To get to the Radio Tower, players need to own a Receiver. This item will pick up radio signals and transmit their locations on the screen (marked in blue) along with some nearby islands (marked in green).

Once a Receiver is built, rafters will get a new entry on their journal. Press the T button to open it, then enter the generated numbers into the machine (It shows as #XXXX in the journal, with XXXX being the required numbers). A blue dot should appear, telling players where they need to go.

After people come near the blue dot, the Radio Tower should be seen from afar. It looks like a stranded facility, so it would be hard to miss.

How To Get The Receiver

To get and use the Receiver in Raft, players have to:

1. Get the Blueprint: Receiver from floating Barrels
2. Research the Receiver, Antenna, and Battery in the Research Table by inserting:
   • Plank
   • Plastic
   • Circuit Board
   • Hinge
   • Scrap
   • Bolt
   • Copper Ingot

3. Craft one Receiver, three Antennas, and one Battery.
4. Make a higher floor on the raft. The Receiver will only work if it’s placed at least one floor above the foundation.
5. Craft the Battery and place it on the Receiver. The machine can now be turned on, but not yet used. Remember to turn off the gadget once players are done using it; otherwise, the Battery will be drained.
6. Prepare some spots for the Antennas. Antennas can’t be too close to the Receiver or each other. The Receiver will inform players which Antenna is not properly installed once it’s turned on.
7. After the setup is done, enter the numbers in the players’ journal. The Receiver will show a blue dot on the screen if the numbers are inserted correctly.

What To Collect At The Radio Tower In Raft

Other than some salvages, the most important items players need to collect at the Radio Tower are:

• Blueprint: Head Lamp
• Blueprint: Recycler
• New character: Tala
• Story Notes x5

Head Lamp is an equipable item that can help players journey into the dark depths of the sea, a Recycler is a machine required to make Trash Cubes, and Tala is a new playable character in Raft.

After exploring the Radio Tower, rafters will get a new set of numbers that will lead them to the next location, the Vasagatan.

Raft is available on PC.
