You can find out more about what each location holds and its dangers by tapping it on the Map. Each location has its own set difficulty, Resource, and loot levels. The more skulls, the higher the difficulty. The same goes for Resources and loot - the more icons present, the richer the location is in that type of Resource.
The difficulty of a location can represent not just how many enemies are in the area, but also how strong those enemies are. Take care when taking on the challenge of a new location and make sure you have good armor and weapons, as well as supplies to keep your Hunger and Thirst at bay. You never know what treasure you may find - but you need to survive to reach it! If a location proves too difficult, try to upgrade your equipment before trying again.
