Each episode has choice and different storylines and also, each selection of the episode, will get events different in the next episode.

• Choices/Number of Choices

This is a recap/conclusion of the choices you make in each episode. Choice here can be seen by category Friends Stats and World Stats. For Friend Stats that is the choice your friends play, while World Stats is a summary from around the world.

The most important thing in gamee that is Settings menu. In games here, there are several settingsstarting from video settings, audio settings, language and subtitle settings and control settings.

Whereas for control settingsyou can set the level sensitivity on mouse, invert X and Y axis and others related to game control.

• Movement Control/Control Movement and Camera Control/Control Camera

Even though in games this already has an explanation “How to Play”, I want to explain it in more detail using Indonesian. In the controls here, the explanations are like moving the character, moving the camera, how to run fast and others.

6. Tab to open the journal. In the journal there are profiles of each character, photos you take (depending on the situation) and other objectives.

• Do Rewind Power/Reverse Time

Just like the explanation above, I will explain it in more detail.

1. Hold right click to rewind time/rewind time. If you press right click/rewind time, your screen will turn red. What happens if the screen is red? Nothing happened.
2. When rewinding time, hold down Shift to rewind time faster. How to? That is by pressing right click + Shift to do so.

If you interact with objects such as laptops, you can open Twitter, blogs and social media from these objects.

• Other stuff/Etc

Last one other stuffwhich plays other important things related to the course of the game, such as;
