Settings to adjust before you play
CheckTwo settings matter most when you first load in. Bump graphics quality up to 4 or higher so the environment is sharp and details are easy to spot. Set brightness to high as well, since many areas are dark and you will miss things if your screen is too dim. If the game feels sluggish, dial graphics back down until it runs smoothly.
- Graphics set to 4 or above sharper image, easier to catch small clues
- Brightness set to high dark scenes become readable instead of frustrating
- Device running hot or slow lower graphics until performance feels stable

It is an updated release of Chapter 1.2 that improves on the original version of that part of the story.
