This is a guide for speedy playthrough ommitting all optional puzzles and sidequests. It includes only the obligatory movements that will advance the virtual game clock, and reach the ending as soon as possible. It will provide minimal "Detective Points" (DPs) score.
This is a guide for speedy playthrough which ommits all optional puzzles and sidequests. It includes only the obligatory movements that will advance the virtual game clock, and reach the ending as fast as possible. It will provide minimal "Detective Points" (DPs) score.


Each Act is non-linear and most of the movements can be done in any conventient order during a specific Act. However some linearity is required, as few points are triggered only after another movement was done previously. For example in Act I Gertie is first seen in the Parlor, and after that, she goes to her room; this means that you won't find Gertie in her room unless you trigger the previous points first. The guide provides a possible optimal order of movements for minimal wandering and repetition of routes.
