What do the arrows mean?

[Udderly Butterly]

I'm stuck at the begining of the game where two crossbow men shoot arrows at me and an upward facing arrow appears. I move my mouse upwards and nothing happens. Does anyone know what i'm supposed to do? I've done this multiple times now with no success.

haha same spot.
no screen resolution. no control explenation. bizzare game

[dubesor]

WASD or arrowkeys. So, in your example you press UP/W

[Udderly Butterly]

Okay, thanks Dubesor, i've been trying to move my mouse up all this time, hahaha.

[MILNOR]

why do the quick time controls jump from qwe to the arrows keys on the other side of the keyboard lol

[MILNOR]

ok never mind the both work lol but still

Well, you are supposed to do the button-less arrow prompts with mouse movements, so yes, that particular section at least is bugged, but thankfully, as others have pointed out already, the movement keys work just as well for those (and in this case better) on PC.

Haha that had me for a while too.

I agree, what in the ♥♥♥♥ was that stupid ass arrow put in there for?
Game needs work on interfacing. Died ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ five times before googling this, now I don't know if I even want play this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ $20 game.

If that were not bad enough, we are trying to play it as a group at my place and the ♥♥♥♥ has a timer.

Since this was bumped I'll doubt you'll see it, but you aren't supposed to use your mouse, just like every other Telltale game, the keyboard is required.

You can pause the dialogs by pressing space. Not really the way the devs intend for it to be played, but it's a solution. Myself, I can understand where you're coming from regarding the timer too. Though my issue was more along of the lines of finding the cursor hard to find as it disappears when you're not in control. Only had the timer run out once though.

Left Arrow <--- is A
Right Arrow ---> is D
Up Arrow ^ is W
Down Arrow v is S
If a random letter pops up on screen, you must button-mash it until the bar around it fills up

What does "button-mash" mean?

What does "button-mash" mean?

Repeatedly hit the same button until an action happens.

So for example, this game often makes you button mash "Q" during combat situations when you need to do something that requries strength, like throw an attacker off you or wrestle a sword away from them. Literally all you have to do is hammer "Q" until you're successful. Watch out, though, because the game usually makes you follow up button-mashing "Q" by making you hit the "E" key immediately afterward to finish the "combo."
