You need to build a bed — and for that, we need to use our Memetics. To quickly open your Memetics menu, hit O on PC. The navigate to the Building tab and research Basic Furniture. Once you’ve got that, you’ll be able to build a bed and enjoy a restful night’s sleep.

How do you build a bed in Once Human?

Firstly, you need to be in your own territory to build anything. When you’re in your own territory, hit B to enter build mode, and then right-click to open your building menu. From there, go to the Furniture tab, then go to Lifestyle Items in the tab under that, and you’ll find the bed there.

There are also consumable in the game that help to restore sanity, but I haven’t found any (yet) that are good. The best and easiest way is to just lie down for a while. You’ll see your sanity go up pretty quickly.

How to heal to full health in Once Human

Once your sanity is restored, simply use any health item that adds to your health bar. My favorite so far is the Health Injector. It’s cheap, and super easy to use. Just slot it in your hot bar and you can boost your health back up mid-combat if you have to.

And that’s it, you’ve got your sanity back, you’ve got your health back, and you’re ready to find out where the Mystical Crate at the Monolith of Greed is. See you in the wilderness!
