Follow these Instructions (these are just the BASIC steps):
1. Talk to the CARRIER on the very first map. You can't miss him. Then head to the next map and follow the path to each sides.
2. You can get a pick to get through streets with a bush on them. Just talk to each of the persons standing at a pentagram. They are going to tell you a row of numbers and you'll have to find the next one.
3. The first of the professors working on the project is currently trying to figure out some other strange puzzle.
Here you have to walk over pentagrams to activate them. Six have to be activated, four have to be left off. You'll have to figure out which ones are the right ones. If you find it out, he's going to give you the first key. You also get an item which tells you the key whenever you want to.
4. You can now find a boat at the coast.
5. Find the second professor on an island. He'll give you the second key. You also get an item which tells you the key whenever you want to.
6. Type in the codes at the entry to the strange device. There are three codes, however you only get two. You'll have to figure out the third one. This is another numbers puzzle.
If you can't get it to work there's a person somewhere giving you a tip.
Also, if you really can't do it, but have found all eight pictures that are hidden on the map, you can go to a woman on a pier and she'll give you all three codes for free. You wouldn't even have to get the first two keys.
7. You'll have to push the button. You should save the game, because you might get into a Game Over screen.
8. You now have three minutes to find the person who gave you the second key. If you can't make it there in the three minutes, the game is over and you can only restart at your last save point.
9. You'll get to Aca City, which is going to be your first stop on the journey. The game ends here right now, but i'm already working on a second chapter.
PICTURES!!
As already mentioned above, there are eight pictures hidden somewhere in chapter 1.They can be at any position on the map that you can walk on. Each chapter will have a number of those pictures. In your first conversation with the CARRIER you also get an item called the Picture Book. With this item you can view all the pictures you've already found. It isn't mentioned in the game yet. I'll have to change that for the next version.
