Understanding the Game Mechanics
Before diving into specific anomalies, you need to master the core gameplay mechanics that will keep you alive through your shifts.
The Third Eye (Mata Batin)
Press Q to activate your Third Eye ability, which reveals hidden supernatural features and auras. However, use it sparingly – holding it too long fills your supernatural meter and can lead to being dragged into the demon world. Pro tip: Use it in 1-2 second bursts only when you’re uncertain about a customer.
Basic Rules for Survival
- Never look at ghosts on customers’ shoulders
- Follow all posted rules – they’re not superstitions, they’re survival requirements
- Serve quickly and accurately to maintain your earnings and sanity
- Know when to refuse service – some customers should never be served
