- The relevant information can change. What you need to pay attention to in the room can change depending on the specific puzzle you are trying to solve. For this reason, you do not have to be caught by intercepting every detail of each room, but rather be open to visiting and re -verification. Do not stop by receiving everything you need the first time!
- When taking notes, you can simply ask yourself: What is protruding in this room now? Look around and then note several notes.
- If you can’t immediately recognize what is useful, you can start with Saving each number, name, city and events you will meet. If a person is associated with a specific event or role, pay attention to this information.

To start, consider using a dedicated notebook for this game. During the game you will add a lot to notes and it will probably go beyond the borders of several pages. You can utilize any elderly notebook that is lying, but your own polygon Susana Polo advised using a dotted notebook, because you can utilize the structure of mesh for drawing schemes in addition to regular notes.
This is definitely not a must, but I used a multi -colored pen that can switch between black, blue and red ink. I emphasized the names, dates and information about history in blue and meant information about the puzzle and information about the room in red. It helped me easier to find some types of information. (I also loved this approach because it was in line with general red-blue visual topics Blue prince.)
After settling with a notebook and a pen, you have many options for ordering notes. However, there was a tendency among the commentators. Organize your notes around the room and leave a lot of space when you start a up-to-date section to the room. Some people we talked to have assigned the whole side to the room, although not every room will need so much space.
Just make one section for room. From there, you can consider creating additional sections for the characters you will learn about, specific puzzles and tools, and even keep some space for general observations or current questions.
If it sounds a lot, there is one way to deal with it. You can divide your work! Charles Harte told Polygon that he and his partner played together. Charles played when his partner took notes.

(Similarly, Cj m na BlueSky Used OneNote and organized all alphabetically according to the room and added screenshots, tables and notes.)
Some people used programs such as Freeform, Miro, and concept organize information and borrow Krężniczka reminiscent of Corkboard to notes.

Screenshots can be nice (especially if you play PC), but it is not always ideal for console users.

My colleague Matthew Reynolds told me that he took pictures of the game instead of screenshots, because it was the easiest way to import photos while playing on several platforms.

Regardless of the notes, it will allow you to enjoy and proceed that the game can serve as “good” notes.
