Modifier Flames are special campfire upgrades in 99 Nights in the Forest. Players equip them to get helpful bonuses during night survival runs, making the game more planned and strategic.
What Is the Modifier Flames Event?
The Modifier Flames event adds new campfire options you can equip before a run.
These options give passive bonuses, which are automatic helpful effects that work without extra actions from you.
For example, a bonus might protect your campfire for a longer time or start a special event on a certain day.
Passive bonuses run in the background, so you can focus on gathering wood, watching enemies, and moving safely.

Current Flames You Already Know
Flames are already part of the game. Each flame has a specific effect that changes your night.
| Flame Type | What It Does |
| Blue Flame | Slows how fast your campfire loses fuel during rain or bad weather |
| Carnival Flame | Starts the Carnival event on Day 1, and it stays open until Day 3 |
| Alien Flame | Makes sure the Alien event happens on Day 3 |
| Meteor Flame | Makes sure the Meteor Shower event happens on Day 3 |
| Frog Flame | Makes sure the Frog event happens on Day 3 |
These flames show how the system works: you pick one, and it changes your night in a planned way.
Guaranteed events mean you know what will appear, so you can prepare items, routes, and tactics in advance.
What the New System Adds
The update brings a new system that makes equipping flames easier and faster.
Instead of many menu steps, you will see a simple layout where you can quickly view, choose, and confirm your flame.
It will also add a few new flames with different types of bonuses.
These may include more safety from certain enemies, improved rewards from events, or a better campfire area.
Full details will appear when the update is live, so keep an eye on in-game notices and patch notes.
Possible New NPC
Developers have talked about a new NPC that might appear if they have enough time to finish him.
An NPC is a non-player character, such as a trader, guide, or helper that you can talk to.
This NPC could be related to flames in several ways, for example:
- Teaching you how Modifier Flames work
- Letting you trade for new flames
- Upgrading your current flames
- Giving quests that unlock special flames
Because this is only teased and not fully confirmed, treat it as a possibility.
After the update, explore the map and check around campfires, shops, and new buildings for any new character.
How to Use Flames Well
To use Modifier Flames in a smart and simple way, follow these steps:
- Go to the campfire menu or the main start screen where flames are shown.
- Look through the list of flames you have unlocked.
- Read each description carefully to understand its bonus.
- Select the flame that best matches your goal for that run.
- Confirm your choice before the night starts.
Match your flame to your plan:
- If bad weather often ends your run, choose a flame that protects your campfire.
- If you want a certain event, pick the flame that guarantees that event on a specific day.
- If you are testing, use one flame for a full run so you clearly feel its effect.
Why This Update Matters
Modifier Flames turn your campfire into a proper planning tool instead of just a place for light.
By choosing the right flame, you shape the kind of night you will face before it even begins.
With a week-long event window, new flames, a simpler system, and a possible new NPC, this update is a strong chance to try new strategies and create guide content that helps other players understand the system in clear and simple steps.
