Introduction:
This game is a post-apocolyptic story following two men who travel through parts of Russia after a pandemic wiped out most of the population, dealing with challenges along the way where you must adapt to survive to finally find your home after the long journey.

*WARNING*
I came across a bug that prevents you from progressing. When you equip your knife, there is a chance it stops interacting with objects, picking up items related to the story, and you will not be able to unequip unless you to pause and choosing restart. This only happened in the Farm/Barn area for myself but could happen in more locations.

Also, the save system is a mystery, you can not manual save but rely on the games auto save system, but it does not alert you to when it saves. So best practise would be to finish the chapter before you exit the game.

Abbreviated Walkthrough:
This game is pretty straight forward and guides you along the way and tells you what you need to do at times but leaves you to figure out how to go about what needs doing or finding. There are only two areas where you must deal with enemies. Just below I have set out a guide for achievements in the order and where you unlock them so you can focus more on the game. You can tell the location when you pause as it will tell you where you are just under the big 35MM.

For myself, I was at 15 morale when exiting the metro, got Repose (50G) then reloaded and picked up a few collectibles and obtained The past is always with us (60G). Continue to live?? (90G) is tricky; to start a new game, you must delete your save, go offline start the game and play until you are sure of a auto save. Close the game, go online and then boot the game chosing local save data (NOT CLOUD DATA). Xbox removed the option 'remove from everywhere' during a previous update.

Mop-Up:
After completing the game and if by any chance you didnt unlock some achievements, you can chapter select. If you followed this guide you should just have Continue to live?? (90G) left to finish on another playthrough.

Conclusion:
This game was slow to start off with but soon picked up slightly. It was an enjoyable game but simple and not too challenging that guides you along the way, to me its one of those hidden gems you play inbetween fast passed games i would recommend playing this.

*MISSABLE*

Bor area

This is a bit long winded so have found a video to direct you better. A note though, the video is not entirely accurate as the battery has multiple spawn points to the left like in the video or to the right of the start between the buses next to a car are two locations I know of.
What the numbers mean?

Listen to the radio signal in tunnels
*MISSABLE*

Tunnels area

After you have used the code on the door (code is found in one of the rooms my the large vent and back of hallway. When you enter the room where you can see a bottle behind a grate climb on the box and break the grate with your axe and you will find a letter with the code on), you will be chased into the next area.

*MISSABLE*

Danger area

As you pass through the tunnels, you will come to an area where you drop down and find an AK-47 on a dead body. Right after that five wolves will show. You need to kill the wolves without emptying the magazine and reloading.

What I did was from when you start after the scene, run forward to the right corner killing the wolf along the way, then turn around and hold to crouch and make it easier to aim and the wolves level. Then, hold and release for controlled bursts. The wolves dont come too fast at you and able to kill them as they come closer.
Voice of hell

Flashback

After you chose to sleep after helping the old man, you will have a flashback where you are sitting ready you use a phone. Before you dial the correct number out of the selection next to the phone dial 666-66-66 and wait you hear the strange noise (written numbers look like 7 but are 1).

Repose

Die
Big City

To unlock this, you need to have a low moral point score (you can see the score on the inventory looking for the hand at the bottom centre with a number next to it). The collectibles throughout the game affect the score so be careful not to collect too many.

By the time I exited the metro, I had a moral score of 15 and with that, near the end of the game, you will follow a lady asking for help to just be stabbed. After this carry on to finish the game and it will unlock.
The past is always with us

60
Reach the finals alone
Big City

See Repose (50G) for more information.

For this you need to have arount the moral score of 19. Collectibles affect this score.

Upon leaving the metro, I had a moral score of 15 in this area and looked for few more collectibles which took me to the minimum needed. You can tell if you have done it right from near the end of the game when the woman shouts for help; you will ignore her and carry on walking past. Now, if that has already happened, carry on to complete the game.
Continue to live??

Reach the finals with a partner

For this achievement, it requires that you find almost all the collectibles and have around the moral score of 24. You will know when you have enough when after the metro underground part the man traveling with you is there to help you up. He is not there for Repose (50G) or The past is always with us (60G). Here is a guide to help locate enough collectables.

After you have helped the man, he will welcome you to stay overnight. When you stand from the table, turn around and see a boy sitting trying to complete the puzzle and asking for help.
