Pause Menu: Access the pause menu (which includes the Introspection Menu) by pressing the designated pause button on your controller or keyboard.
3
Main Action: When facing a highlighted object, press any other button (besides pause or movement) to Inspect it. When not facing any objects, this button triggers Introspection. When in a menu, it confirms selections.

The Introspection Menu:

The Introspection Menu is divided into two halves:

Status (Left Half):
- Truth Recovered: Tracks your percentage progress in solving the game's mysteries. 100% is not required to finish the story.
- Current Location: Displays where your character is standing.
- Stress Level: An indicator if you are being chased; it has no other effect on gameplay.
- Temperature: Indicates the current temperature, affected by indoor/outdoor locations and wearing a jacket. It has no known effect on gameplay.
- Caffeine Influence: Fills when you drink espresso, granting approximately five minutes of the ability to run before draining.
- Bladder: Fills when you drink espresso. A full bladder may increase stress, potentially leading to more frequent appearances of certain chasing enemies. You can empty it at the Water Closet in the Cellar.
- Economy: Shows the current amount of cash your character possesses, in American dollars.
Menu Options (Right Half):
- Photographic Memory: Acts as your "Files" menu, storing important information categorized for later review.
- Current Possessions: Your character's inventory. Examining items here provides lore and potential usage hints.
- Mental Notes: Your "Tasks" menu, showing a chronological list of objectives that are struck off upon completion. Reviewing this is recommended later in the game.
- Personal History: A record of completed actions, less useful than other sections.
- Byte Seyes: Stores the Byte Seyes portable device once acquired. It includes a calculator function and allows loading purchased games.
