Beginner tips for Rue Valley, explaining Intentions, using your phone to visit fortilocdor.com, and interacting with environmental clues.

Starting in Rue Valley, focus on understanding how "Intentions" guide your progress and how your character's traits can influence outcomes. Many early game objectives involve gathering information through dialogue, phone interactions, and examining objects. Experiment with choices, as some paths may require specific traits or lead to different achievements.

Here are some tips for new players:

• Commit to Intentions: Always commit to the current Intention to ensure your actions contribute to its completion.
• Utilize Your Phone: The phone is a critical tool. Use it to:
  • Go to websites like "fortilocdor.com" for information.
  • Contact authorities, such as asking for "Walter's police records."
  • Research individuals, like "Dana Peters" online.
• Explore Dialogue Options: Pay attention to conversations. Some dialogue choices, especially those influenced by traits like "Sensitive -2 or +2," can drastically change outcomes, such as convincing Dana not to give drugs to Ben.
• Interact with the Environment: Look for interactive objects. Examples include:
  • Papers in Maxine's room, which can reveal crucial items like warranties.
  • Chargers at the Kuiper Belt or behind the pool to charge phones.
• Experiment with Choices: Some situations, like pretending to be "Malcolm Scribovitz" when asking for police records, suggest that different approaches might work. Saving before making significant choices can allow you to explore various outcomes.
