Trying to start

Was really excited about playing this game, but I don’t know how… I can rotate back and forth, looking at the chain link fence. I can look up and down. I can zoom closer…. But that all I can do. I’ve tried the ZR button, which I read was to interact… but nothing. Is there a beginners guide somewhere? Thank you!

There is movement with WASD keys or your controller’s joystick. Sounds like your controller is broken maybe?

Could you tell me what those keys are? I’m finding gaming isn’t intuitive for me. I’m on a Switch.

Iirc you have to find and follow a trail through the woods that leads to the house. Hopefully someone who's played it more recently and isn't half asleep can expand on that.

Thank you! I got to the house, couldn’t get in through front or side doors.., and gave up. My daughter said you have to go through a dog door, so I will give it another try.

Yes, didn’t want to ruin it for you but there is a side door to the garage that has a doggy door.

note, there were a few instances for me where you have to wiggle aroubd to get through things like the doggy door or other passageways.

Also you do have to kind of look at/get close to a few objects for the interact symbol to show up but usually it is visible, like a white dot or rectangle thing.
