Introduction
I like 100%ing games and this visual novel+ was a good interesting story and as expected of the genre. The game mechanics were enough to keep me interested, it reminded me of those choose your own adventure books where you could put points into skills and have items/clues (yes, those exist).

You can probably 100% this game in around 10 hours or so.
You can maybe speedrun it in half the time if you dont care to read anything.

Anyway, after buying the game and doing some digging, I found this achievement thread:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/app/680480/discussions/0/1736589520002770700/

Since there were no achievement guides, I thought to put in a little work and create a guide out of the info found in the thread and here we are :)

Most credit goes to FoundThePenguin.

There are no difficulty achievements, some are missable though but if you keep enough savefiles around, it should not be a problem.

No achievements are time sensitive, so enjoy the ride.
Food is spent every step you take, so save before exploring and wasting food.

I highly recommend you put attention to the game's tutorial and check out this guide after trying a battle or two.

If you feel the UI is a little small, try lowering your resolution, I used: 1280x720 Fullscreen.
I wish there was a bigger text option (Im getting old) but oh well.

You can move the game map by holding down the right mouse button and moving the mouse.
Do this to go and find Robert's friend to the south.

Game Tips
  • Shops buy and sell things at different prices, look around, Robert and AmmoNation have good prices.
  • You need to buy schematics to unlock new crafting options, even if you know the combos already.
  • If you are into Save Scumming, you can do it to reroll and see if you trigger a special event in locations but honestly, there is no need.
  • There is a possible bug that if you enter a fight in a location, the location can be explored again after you win IF you dont save/reload/move.
  • Locations do respawn, so dont worry too much about it, although it takes a bit of time.
  • If you have more than 100 items, sell/craft most of your stuff before leaving town.
