Read the scene before moving
Look for staged objects, character position, exit prompts, and any music or camera cue that signals the scene's main idea.

Chapter Objective
Start with the safe goal before looking at cleanup or achievement notes.
Chapter 26
Living Room
Knock, inspect, or collect every obvious object before assuming the room is complete.
Step-By-Step Route
This route is written for a first playthrough: useful, cautious, and light on late-story spoilers.
Clear optional prompts
If the scene rewards knocking objects down or disturbing shelves, move in lanes and count your passes. Repeated-object achievements usually require persistence, not elegant play.
Advance only after the final sweep
Before leaving, check whether dialogue has changed, whether an object can be inspected twice, and whether the chapter seems to be asking for a clean performance.
Achievement And Cleanup Notes
The safest strategy is to track likely missables without claiming unverified hidden flags.
What to watch
Doppelbanger and Tapehead Graveyard-style searches fit this chapter because players will look for cutouts, tapes, and object-count cleanup.
Moderate. It focuses on cleanup rather than story resolution.
Use this page during a first run if you want route confidence without reading ending explanations.
Log the cue
If a song stands out, write down the scene and compare it later with the full songs list and songs-by-chapter page.
