Beginner's Survival Manual: Controls & System Essentials
Covers fundamental visual novel shortcuts, dialogue backlog navigation, manual save checkpoints, and crucial survival principles.
§1. Basic Controls & Shortcut Keys
The game features seamless keyboard and mouse control bindings:
• [Left Click / Space / Enter]: Advance dialogue or confirm choices.
• [Tab / Ctrl]: Fast-forward (Skip) previously read text lines across multiple playthroughs.
• [Scroll Up / PageUp]: Open dialogue backlog to review overlooked hints.
• [Esc / Gear]: Access system settings (Save/Load, Audio sliders, Window modes).
• [H Key]: Hide UI overlay to inspect background art and character sprites.
- •If keystrokes are unresponsive, click inside the game window once to activate browser focus.
- •Mobile users can tap the right side of the screen to advance and use two-finger tap for menu.
§2. Checkpoint Saves & Pitfall Prevention
With 8 distinct endings and sudden-death traps, relying on a single autosave will force full restarts.
Always create separate manual save slots at these three critical junctures:
1. [After-school crossroad]: Determines daytime intel and initial Sanity.
2. [2:15 AM window noise]: The pivotal branch deciding intruder infiltration path.
3. [Corridor standoff threshold]: Final divergence between Escape, Obsession, and True Survival.
