Step 1
Learn the normal route first
- Finish the matching normal map without relying on random exploration.
- Remember the rooms used by the main task chain.
- Identify two pursuit-reset options between major objectives.
Step 2
Protect stamina and interaction windows
- Do not sprint every safe hallway.
- Start slow interactions only after checking the approach route.
- Use hiding to recover the route, not to wait indefinitely.
Step 3
Give every co-op player one job
- Task player: completes the current interaction.
- Scout: watches the parent location and next corridor.
- Support: stays close enough to help or revive without stacking on the task.
Step 4
Treat a failed run as useful information
- Record the objective where the run failed.
- Name the room or corridor that trapped the team.
- Change one movement choice on the next attempt instead of changing everything.
Keep moving
