Using badge descriptions as a roadmap

Tips
In short Every badge description doubles as a hint about what you should do next.

The game has twelve badges in total, and the developers wrote their descriptions to point you toward the next objective.

Tips worth knowing
  • The Secrets badge asks 'What is inside?' — treat that as a direct instruction to dig further into the basement rather than stopping at the entrance.
  • Final Choice and Trauma are both tied to a decision moment, so expect a point in the game where you have to pick a path.
  • The Masterplan badge description warns that the Neighbor is going to be very angry, which means something you do will trigger a major reaction.
