1. You do not know where to investigate next
Cause: You have not recorded explored sections
Solution: Divide the mansion into sections, list investigated and uninvestigated areas, and work through them in order
2. Supernatural opponents overwhelm you
Cause: Class roles and equipment upgrades are insufficient
Solution: Clearly assign attack, investigation, and healing roles, then replenish equipment and healing before combat
3. You cannot sustain exploration
Cause: Healing or investigative tools were inadequately prepared
Solution: Secure healing and investigative tools before setting out, and avoid pushing too deeply

- ▸ Assign attacking, investigating, and healing classes before exploration
- ▸ Secure healing and investigative tools first
- ▸ Keep a separate save slot before supernatural battles
The mansion is large, and uncertainty about what you have examined encourages repeated backtracking. Divide floors and rooms into sections and note investigated and uninvestigated areas for steadier progress. Knowing encounter-prone places and safe resting locations also helps.
- ▸ Divide floors and rooms into sections and record investigation status
- ▸ Distinguish encounter-prone locations from safe zones
- ▸ Do not advance too far while leaving areas uninvestigated
Blocks tend to arise from unexplored sections or insufficient preparation for supernatural combat. Review investigation notes for unvisited locations. If battles cause trouble, rebuild the formation and equipment before retrying to find a way forward.
- ▸ When stuck, first identify uninvestigated sections
- ▸ Review roles and equipment if you cannot defeat supernatural opponents
- ▸ Keep healing and investigative tools in stock
