Lurking Giants is a horror survival game where something hides inside the TV and hunts you down through a Backrooms-style world. This guide covers how to survive your first runs, how to shake the giant when it spots you, and how to use the game's redeem codes.
In shortUsing the map's complex layout against the giant is more effective than just running in a straight line.
When the giant is on you, the game's winding room structure is your best tool for breaking line of sight and losing your pursuer.
Tips worth knowing
Cut through connected rooms rather than sprinting down open corridors — the turns and doorways break the giant's path.
Pay attention to sound so you can tell how close it is before you even see it.
Keep more than one hiding spot in mind at any time, in case your first choice is cut off.
In multiplayer, split up and come from different directions to confuse the giant and draw its attention away from teammates who need a moment to regroup.
In shortCodes are free rewards worth grabbing, but each one only works once per account.
The game has working redeem codes that give in-game rewards at no cost. Find the code input field when you load in so you know where it is before you need it.

Enter each code only once; entering the same code a second time will not give a second reward.
