General Tips & Tricks
In Casual difficulty, the Hint button recharges fastest, and puzzles can be skipped. On Normal difficulty, the Hint button recharges slower, and puzzles can only be skipped after a certain amount of time has passed. In Hard mode, the Hint button doesn’t work, and puzzles can never be skipped. Hard mode also removed the sparkle on objects of interest. For the first play-through, Casual or Normal difficulty is encouraged, as it still offers a solid challenge.
Tips and Tricks
This is a hidden-object game. A keen eye is important. Click everything, go everywhere, and make sure to revisit places you have already been. Screens often change when you revisit
them, so look out for subtle differences and brand new items. If an object can be picked up, observed, spoken to, or if any other action can be taken, your mouse icon will change. Click everything.
There are many, many items that need to be collected to pass through the game. It is highly recommended that you venture through every possible room in every chapter, and search for items that may be helpful in the future. Every item you can pick up will be used at some point, and finding them early, when there are fewer areas to search, will save you a lot of time and backtracking in the later parts of the game.
Your map is a great asset. It not only lets you know where you are, but also where you can go, and areas in which there are vital items or puzzles will be shown and specially designated on the map. If you are not sure where to go, looking at the map may help you quite a bit.
There is a Parables button in the bottom left. Clicking that will open a “journal” window, reminding you of important aspects of the storyline and reminding you what all you need to do to proceed through the story and save the world from the
Wolf Queen.
If you are ever completely stuck, remember that there is a Hint button in the bottom left. Clicking that button will reveal a hint to get you started. It will recharge slowly, and recharging will speed up as the game progresses. A Hint button can be a lifesaver in an open-world hidden-object game like this.
Icons
Your mouse icon can change to any of the following, and each icon implies a certain action. Magnifying Glass – Zoom in on an area
Hand – Pick up or interact with an item
Chat Bubble – Talk to a character
Tools
There are many tools available to help you through the game.
- Inventory – Your inventory is in the bar at the bottom of the screen
- Map – The map tells you where you are, and
shows where you can go. - Tasks – The task button in the lower left tells
you what to do to proceed. - Hints – In the lower left corner. Click for
help if you’re stuck! - Along with these tools, the game points out
specific areas of interest by making them sparkle, and gives you the
option to skip a particularly hard puzzle.
