Barrels are the fastest way to make a room feel used—supplies stacked, goods stored, and corners worth checking. They also double as instant cover, choke clutter, and “what’s inside?” mystery.
Usage Tips
- Create storerooms fast: cluster barrels with crates and bags to imply a supply cache.
- Add tactical cover: place barrels near doorways and corners to shape movement and line-of-sight.
- Set the scene by floor: wood floor for taverns and warehouses, cobblestone for docks and city alleys.
- Hide secrets: a lone barrel in an odd spot can hint at contraband, a key, or a trap trigger.
Great for: taverns, docks, markets, basements, dungeon supply rooms, and bandit hideouts.
