Basic Tips

Hints

There are times when you’ll need to leave Hugo alone for a short while, but if this goes on for too long, he’ll start to draw attention. Stay with him as much as possible.

Stealth is a key part of gameplay, and you’ll often want to distract enemies. Hit objects with rocks from your slingshot or throw an object to make a sound that will attract attention and let you sneak past.

Pay attention to the edge of the screen. A yellow glow means a guard is nearby. Red means you’ve been spotted. If it’s filling in white, it means you’re attracting attention. If it’s filling in red, it means you’ll be caught soon.

Crafting is important, and you’ll want to do a thorough job of collecting crafting materials. Explore thoroughly to get as many crafting materials as you can.

There are many upgrades to get, but one of the most important to prioritize is your pockets, which will allow you to carry more items.

If you need to fight, pay close attention to your targeting reticule. It turns yellow if you’re aiming at a target—and this takes into account whether or not ammo will be effective. If it isn’t yellow, it won’t work.

Aim for the head. Enemies are protected by armor, so aiming for the head is your best option, or using different types of ammo to open up a weak point for you to aim at. You’ll also want to strike while undetected, because getting into direct combat is very dangerous.

In general, take your time and think through situations to employ the most effective strategy, instead of rushing through.
