15 Days Guide - English

15 days guide in english

Intro

As with all my guides, here's some things you might like to know going forward:

• There is a BAD glitch at the Paris catacombs. A fix for you might be to skip the cutscenes entirely. If this doesn't work, there are some good fixes on reddit and even a mod for the file. Users on GOG claim to have more success with the game on this section - but it's still not great.
  
  
• Click on the map in the catacombs. I know it does nothing and shows nothing useful for the majority of the game - but it is different there and changes to be actually helpful.
  
  
• The spacebar is your friend. It helps you highlight interactable zones on the screen, and makes the game much less painful.
  
  
• To merge items, use the first item, and click on the second item in your inventory to combine it.
  
  
• This guide will be incredibly brief. It's a long, somewhat wordy game anyway, so this is literally just the minimum amount of detail, intentionally vague for no spoilers, and intentionally short (The old guides can be wordy for no good reason.)
  
  
• This guide does not need to be followed in order, and some parts are not even needed. Unlike the previous instalments like mystery of the druid, there's moonlogic but it isn't strict. If you forget this one thing in the walkthrough, the game is not going to halt. You can still progress.
  
  
• This game is a buggy mess. Save, save often, and rotate your saves. There is no soft-lock, as this is a largely linear game compared to their other work, but it's still by these devs. You saw the reviews, you know what you're getting yourself into. Buckle up.
