General Tips

• There are 3 modes in this game: TIMED, CAREFREE, and FIND ALL. TIMED mode sets a time limit for each chapter, and CAREFREE lets you play at your own leisure. FIND ALL mode is unlocked after you complete the main story.
• You can choose between TIMED and CAREFREE mode at any time during the main story in the options menu. If you run out of time you will have to start from the beginning of the chapter again.
• Items displayed in a highlighted text are KEY ITEMS. These items must be found in a descending order (relevant to their positions on the item list).
• You will receive 3 HINTS at the beginning of each chapter (if you have less than 3 HINTS saved up). You will gain an extra HINT for every 3 items found in rapid succession. HINTS will replenish over time if you have less than 3 available.
• Random clicking has a different consequence in each game mode. In TIMED mode you will lose 30 seconds instantly. In CAREFREE mode your mouse will spiral out of control. And in FIND ALL mode you will Lose 1 hint.
• The MAP button allows you to exit a scene and return to the World map.

• Sometimes you will have to find new locations on the World map. Use the highlighted hint texts to guide you to each location. You can also use your HINTS to find new locations.
• After discovering a location it will remain visible until the game is complete. You can only enter the locations listed on the location list.
