To the Moon walkthrough: clues, mementos and later progress by memory

Concrete solution: preparing in the real-world house

Exploration before entering memories. Set up the equipment first, then investigate the basement with the children's guidance.

1. Take equipment from the car and follow arrows and stairs into the house. Either choice for the object blocking the path allows passage.
2. Pick the equipment up again inside. Talk to the doctor and Lily in the second-floor bedroom and install it. Choose an investigator and receive the patient monitor if stopped when leaving.
3. Ask the children downstairs for guidance. If giving candy, stand on the kitchen stool, take candy from the high shelf and return.
4. Inspect the front-facing bookshelf in the study and choose to read the passage to obtain the room key.
5. Go downstairs, turn on the light and open the door beside the bookshelf. Light the inside too and take the stuffed platypus.
6. If choosing the lighthouse visit, leave the house toward the car-side junction and take the left path. Inspect blue and yellow paper rabbits upstairs in the lighthouse to receive the return call.
7. In the bedroom, move to the machine-connection seat and begin.

If visibility remains poor after finding the key, check room lamps before looking for doors. Choosing the lighthouse or waiting is not an ending selection.

Concrete solution: memories 1–4 / house and rainy lighthouse

Normal five-link exploration begins after traveling through the first paper rabbit. If links remain incomplete despite finding a toy or flower, check nearby conversations first.

After each preparation puzzle, inspect the same memento again in exploration to enter the next memory. For button sequences alone, use the puzzle guide.

Concrete solution: memories 5–9 / construction, bar and lighthouse area

Moving between screens matters here as well as finding objects. Return to the travel object once five links are lit.

The lighthouse throwing scene does not require retrieving the thrown object from a distance. Find the bag left near the pair.

Concrete solution: library / obtain the entered clue through conversation

The library question does not require outside knowledge. Inspect Johnny's multiple appearances and use River's explanation at reception.

1. Read Johnny, Nicolas and Isabelle's conversation, then advance Johnny and River's conversation near the shelves.
2. Once River moves to reception, inspect Johnny to reveal his multiple appearances.
3. Inspect the nearby and lower appearances. If you do not know the David question near the lower-right shelves, even an incorrect entry lets you finish the input and return to exploration.
4. Inspect the lower-left Johnny and read the pair's reception conversation. Check David's animal name.
5. Return to the question, enter cobra in English letters and confirm.
6. If links remain, also inspect around reception and shelves watched by faint people.
7. With five links, prepare and activate the book on the right side of the reception counter.

Sources confirm cobra as the in-game answer. Match the input field's accepted characters in the Japanese version. Entering only a Japanese animal name has not been confirmed.

Concrete solution: memories 11–13 / wedding, ranch and doctor's office

Some exits need only two or three links. If blocked, check that exit's requirement instead of searching for five links on the same screen.

1. To interact with the ranch bag, approach within reach while still mounted.
2. If confirmation alone does not respond, click the bag and use the horse action shown on screen. Original Windows guides describe a Space action.

Sources differ on inputs for dismounting Neil. Align the contact position and prioritize on-screen confirmation and horse controls.

Concrete solution: memories 14–16 / cinema, school and old house

Repeated clocks and toys are not always mementos. Check lit markers while identifying the object used last in each scene.

Do not interpret the school-computer joke as instructions to press Alt + F4; on Windows that closes the game. In the white space after the ball, advance conversation to the next stage.

Concrete solution: Act 2 / connecting memories and real-world investigation

The circular arrangement of objects differs from the tile-flipping puzzle. Returning to the same scenery after connecting is not necessarily a failed input.

1. In the circular arrangement, inspect Johnny in the center to rotate objects. From newer ages on the right to older ages on the left, connect adjacent pairs with flower, paper rabbit, book and clock. The puzzle guide also explains the approach.
2. After connecting, return to the oldest Johnny's memory and check Johnny and Lily at the cliff left of the house.
3. On revisiting the cinema, advance lobby and screening-room conversations, then inspect Johnny in the screening room. At school, continue toward the gym and read the following sequence.
4. Back in reality, check the house bedroom and kitchen. Finish talking to Neil on the phone, follow Lily in the study and hear every dining-room topic. Read the additional call as you try to leave too.
5. Talk to Neil again in the kitchen and advance the entrance scene through receiving the gloves.
6. Inspect the squirrel by the car, take the container from the car and inspect the squirrel again to obtain the smell. Check what fell from the car too, then return home.

The wish not changing things does not require solving every earlier puzzle again. Continue with the new real-world questioning.

Concrete solution: Act 3 / white space to childhood

Major story information is revealed here. Check only the action blocking you and close the section partway through if you want to avoid reading ahead.

1. Links are already complete when reconnecting to the old house. Use the ball in Johnny's room and inspect the ball again after conversation in the white space.
2. Leave the park gate for the road. Inspect the child kicking a ball on the left, check events along the road and return toward the car at the park entrance. After the following scene, inspect the person to continue.
3. In the children's room, finish the conversation and inspect the toy train.
4. At the festival, play whack-a-mole and check the fortune-telling stall and Ferris-wheel attendant for three links.
5. Cross the bridge, step onto the stage and talk to the family eating to the south for the rest. Follow Johnny into the park, cross the log and continue along the back path.
6. Back at school, control Neil to follow Eva. Head right down the corridor, avoiding balls, protrusions and monitors. When extra instructions appear, distinguish arrow-key movement from W/A/S/D directions for throwing plant pots.
7. After the loop conversation opens a hole in the wall, inspect it for another corridor. Pass classrooms toward the telephone ahead; answer when it rings and enter beyond the door.

Obstacle knockbacks allow continuing after adjusting the preceding route. Sources disagree on left/right after the wall hole, so this guide uses the telephone beyond the classrooms as the destination.

Concrete solution: final facility and after the ending

The final facility also uses conversations on other floors to collect links and open doors. This enters the ending, so keep it closed if not yet reached.

1. Inspect the book near Johnny by NASA reception and continue inside. Leave the four-link door for later and take the elevator on the right.
2. On Floor 2, watch the guide and Johnny in the control room.
3. On Floor 3, check the training area with the centrifuge. Confirm the conversation ended and links increased before returning.
4. On Floor 4, inspect the guide in the viewing room and finish the scene overlooking the rocket.
5. With four links, return to Floor 1 and enter the lounge left of the elevator. Read the reunion and concert scenes.
6. In the passage overlooking the launch, move left and talk to colored figures. Use the movement marker near Lily and the doctor to approach Eva, then choose to begin.
7. Watch the sequence and credits, then finish the epilogue conversation beside the lighthouse.

This guide ends at the base-game epilogue. Real events and machine-created memories are portrayed as separate layers, so it does not describe the real life itself as having been rewound.

What animal name is entered in the library?

Enter cobra in English letters. The clue comes from the reception conversation after inspecting several versions of Johnny.

I cannot do anything in the white space

On the first visit, advance conversation to the next stage. On the Act 3 return, inspect the ball after dialogue. Distinguish the first visit from the revisit.
