⚠️ Troubleshooting

1. Unsure Which Short Story to Read First

Cause: Unfamiliarity with the open format of selecting from 13 stories

Solution: Choose an appealing story from the book's table of contents, finish it, and then move to the next

2. Cannot Reach Another Ending

Cause: Not knowing which choices change the branch

Solution: Keep a separate save before a choice, try different options, and compare how the story unfolds

3. Losing Track of the Plot

Cause: Confusion caused by the avant-garde structure or bleak developments

Solution: Review the characters and situation at intervals, and reread from the beginning of the story if needed

Handling Choices with 3 Options

At key points, 3 options appear, and your choice changes the course of the story. Making choices is part of interpreting the story itself and is a fundamental action in reading the text. If unsure, take your time and reread the context.

  • ▸ Choices with 3 options appear at key points
  • ▸ Your choices change the story's course
  • ▸ Reread the context before choosing
Keeping Separate Saves

For stories whose branches you want to explore, keeping a separate save before a choice makes it easier to examine another path later. Only overwriting the same save makes reproducing earlier choices more cumbersome. Use multiple slots to preserve starting points for comparing different paths.

  • ▸ Keep separate saves before branches
  • ▸ Do not rely solely on overwriting
  • ▸ Preserve starting points for comparing paths
