Gameplay Basics
A big part of this game is finding out things for yourself, but some things aren't well taught.

COMBAT STUFF
  • Right Click - Attack Mode! (When things ATTACK you, RIGHT CLICK!)
  • Z - Block with your Shield!!
  • X - Swing your Sword!

Wow! You will already have a better time than I did when I played this game!

MEGATOME STUFF
  • Click on Person - Person's thoughts appear in tweet format!
  • Scroll Down - SCROLL DOWN ON PEOPLE'S THOUGHTS!!! There's almost always more info to be seen and taken in!!

You can tell there's something new to see whenever there is a big plus icon over things! You are so much smarter now!!

SWORCERY STUFF
  • Sworcery only interacts with the spot where you CLICK/TAP, not necessarily where you DRAG!
  • Sworcery does have DRAGGING INTERACTION, but only after you clicked the spot that is interactive!!!! BEWARE!!!

Wow! If I had this guide, I could have skipped a couple hours of FIGURING stuff OUT!

MISCELLANEOUS STUFF
  • Mushrooms HEAL you!
  • Double clicking an exit for a screen makes your character walk FASTER! (Also works on DOORS)
  • Use your KEYBOARD controls, not the ON SCREEN controls!!
Backtracking
There are two types of backtracking in this game... USEFUL & USELESS!!! And because walking is SO SLOW, you will want to AVOID USELESS backtracking!

Backtracking: The action of looking at things you have already looked at before.

CHARACTERS
After Sessions (1-4), Characters in the world tend to have a few different things to say. However, usually they don't have anything new to say after that.

The MEGATOME reveals the thoughts of the characters. After any sort of achievable action, someone usually has a new thought related to that action. Check the MEGATOME often if you do something new! The information gained may help increase your knowledge of S:S&S EP!! And remember to scroll down on their thoughts to see more!

GHOSTS
At some point you can talk to ghosts! They give you helpful hints, but once you have received them, they offer nothing new! If you have talked to a ghost, you never need to talk to them again! Talking to them will not effect anything in the story other than satisfying your own curiosity!

MINGI TAW
Mingi Taw is the furthest location from the house up on the mountain by some loathsome rainbows. Often you are confronted by a MONSTER on the way up to Mingi Taw! This fight adds on a MINUTE or TWO to the already slow journey up the mountain. It would be a shame if there was nothing up there! DON'T GO UP TO MINGI TAW unless you are in Session One or Talking to Ghosts For Fun!! If you are close to finishing the game, DO NOT GO UP TO MINGI TAW. There is literally nothing there for you! It is a waste of time!
