00:00:00,230 --> 00:00:03,680
Welcome to Cipherfell. You are the Warden

2
00:00:03,590 --> 00:00:06,220
of the Seal. Your job is to

3
00:00:06,130 --> 00:00:09,560
investigate before you trust. This guide shows

4
00:00:09,470 --> 00:00:13,260
the controls, the evidence loop, and optional

5
00:00:13,170 --> 00:00:16,080
dungeon combat. You do not need to

6
00:00:15,990 --> 00:00:17,680
finish every activity at once.

7
00:00:20,230 --> 00:00:22,880
Choose New Game to start, or Continue

8
00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:26,120
for a saved journey. Research logging is

9
00:00:26,030 --> 00:00:28,660
optional: choose No to play without it.

10
00:00:29,190 --> 00:00:31,100
Return to the same browser and address

11
00:00:31,010 --> 00:00:32,080
to keep your progress.

12
00:00:40,230 --> 00:00:44,080
Use W, A, S, D or the

13
00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:46,600
arrow keys to walk. On a phone,

14
00:00:46,870 --> 00:00:49,880
drag the touch joystick. Walk along the

15
00:00:49,790 --> 00:00:52,980
road, release the controls, and stop beside

16
00:00:52,890 --> 00:00:55,760
a doorway. You can take your time

17
00:00:55,670 --> 00:00:56,980
while learning the layout.

18
00:01:00,260 --> 00:01:02,550
Read the objective at the top left.

19
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,410
Press N or select the minimap to

20
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:09,670
open the atlas. The red dot is

21
00:01:09,580 --> 00:01:12,770
you; the gold marker is your destination.

22
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:16,570
Choose a location to track it, then

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,530
walk there. Tracking does not teleport you.

24
00:01:20,260 --> 00:01:22,630
Approach a person or doorway and press

25
00:01:22,540 --> 00:01:24,726
E, or use Talk on a touch

26
00:01:24,636 --> 00:01:27,630
screen. Read the conversation and inspect the

27
00:01:27,540 --> 00:01:31,450
available evidence. If nothing opens, move closer.

28
00:01:32,420 --> 00:01:35,410
In dungeons, keep E for interaction: Space

29
00:01:35,320 --> 00:01:36,710
or F is your attack.

30
00:01:40,150 --> 00:01:43,900
A claim is not proof. Explore, collect

31
00:01:43,810 --> 00:01:46,200
clues, and return to the Case board.

32
00:01:47,090 --> 00:01:49,580
Compare what different sources tell you before

33
00:01:49,490 --> 00:01:52,400
making a decision. If the puzzle is

34
00:01:52,310 --> 00:01:54,700
locked, use the objective to find the

35
00:01:54,610 --> 00:01:57,240
evidence you still need. The guide will

36
00:01:57,150 --> 00:01:58,400
not reveal the answer.

37
00:02:00,150 --> 00:02:02,420
Open Help if you forget a control,

38
00:02:02,910 --> 00:02:04,880
and use Replay tutorial to see the

39
00:02:04,790 --> 00:02:08,120
guided introduction again. In a puzzle, read

40
00:02:08,030 --> 00:02:10,240
the feedback and request a hint when

41
00:02:10,150 --> 00:02:13,340
you need one. Before trying again, say

42
00:02:13,250 --> 00:02:15,320
what the new information changes about your

43
00:02:15,230 --> 00:02:15,680
reasoning.

44
00:02:20,260 --> 00:02:23,890
Dungeons are optional side trips. Enter the

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,690
Sealed Vault through the Archive, the Flooded

46
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,350
Mine through the Harvest Storehouse, or the

47
00:02:29,260 --> 00:02:32,650
Crypt through the Chapel. Read the expedition

48
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,870
goal and speak with the resident near

49
00:02:34,780 --> 00:02:37,730
the entrance. Your main case remains available

50
00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:38,510
when you return.

51
00:02:40,150 --> 00:02:42,460
Face the enemy and press F or

52
00:02:42,370 --> 00:02:45,700
Space, or tap Attack. The red ring

53
00:02:45,610 --> 00:02:48,100
shows the danger area. Step outside it

54
00:02:48,010 --> 00:02:50,220
while the enemy prepares, then return during

55
00:02:50,130 --> 00:02:52,800
recovery. Repeated hits do not cancel a

56
00:02:52,710 --> 00:02:55,700
committed attack. Watch the health bar and

57
00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:56,700
leave room to retreat.

58
00:03:00,260 --> 00:03:03,110
Defeated enemies have a seventy-five percent chance

59
00:03:03,020 --> 00:03:05,570
to drop a hint. Open Loot hints

60
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,750
to read what you found. Some victories

61
00:03:07,660 --> 00:03:10,290
give no hint, and defeated enemies stay

62
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,710
defeated. Resident advice and town route notes

63
00:03:13,620 --> 00:03:15,790
provide other ways to get help, so

64
00:03:15,700 --> 00:03:17,610
a missed drop does not stop progress.

65
00:03:20,260 --> 00:03:23,390
Complete East Ward jobs for supplies or

66
00:03:23,300 --> 00:03:26,890
route notes. Finish the inn's guest-ledger job

67
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,230
to unlock rest. In a dungeon, Use

68
00:03:30,140 --> 00:03:33,130
supply restores two health and consumes one

69
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:33,430
item.

70
00:03:40,290 --> 00:03:43,740
At zero health, recover without losing discoveries.

71
00:03:46,370 --> 00:03:48,680
Return to the entrance stair to leave.

72
00:03:49,370 --> 00:03:52,440
Continue later in the same browser. Now

73
00:03:52,350 --> 00:03:54,740
find one clue and explain your reasoning.
