Notes
All of the dialogue auto-advances and it’s fast.
Unlike Deception 2, there are only 4 choices you can make, all killable enemies are mandatory and there are just two routes. I show the 3 endings you can get with the first route in this video. The second route only has 1 ending.
The repeated use of the waterwheel setup was to generate large amounts of ark. It’s around 1k per cycle and definitely worth doing when maxed out traps cost over 10k to make.
Wall traps, all of them, suck pretty hard in this game due to the extremely common immunity to them.
In chapter 17, you encounter Gelfaust. He is a effectively a boss. With the setup I had, there was no way to make good use of the environment traps, especially with his immunities, so I had to pin him to the wall.
