⚡ Pro Tips

💡 Explore thoroughly - many hidden areas and secrets
💡 Upgrade your weapons and abilities regularly
💡 Use stealth when possible - resources are scarce
💡 Save before boss fights
💡 Complete side content for extra rewards
💡 Pay attention to enemy weaknesses
💡 Use the environment to your advantage
💡 Experiment with different playstyles

🔇 Stealth First

  • Listening mode shows enemies through walls - use it standing still, because moving blurs the outline
  • Bricks and bottles distract; a thrown brick into a corner pulls a whole patrol
  • Take out isolated enemies with a stealth choke, and never start a fight in an open room

🔧 Crafting Priorities

  • Shivs open locked doors and kill clickers silently; make two before every dark section
  • Upgrade the holster and the listening range before weapon damage
  • Med kits are scarce - heal with the health pack only when the next fight is unavoidable

🎯 Combat Rules

  • Headshots stagger runners; body shots only slow them
  • Clickers are blind but hear everything - crouch-walk past them, never sprint
  • Save the shotgun shells for bloaters; a molotov and two shells ends that fight
