Book History

Work on this Wikibook began on June 14th, 2021.

Purpose

The primary purpose of this book is to inform the reader.

However this book also exists as an experiment to create a new strategy guide for Wikibooks from scratch, not relying on old undeleted Wikibooks from before the period in which they were banned (~2006-2021), or from imports from StrategyWiki. While a book on StrategyWiki existed for this game, it was only partially developed at the time of writing. This meant this was an ideal game to try writing about from scratch, rather then attempt an import. The one exception is the page Controls.

A walkthrough was included hesitantly - since they are not needed in a pure strategy guide and significantly increase the amount of upfront work required in the creation of the guide. However a walkthrough can also help organize the chronology of a game, a handy tool for scholars of media. Thus this walkthrough also pays special attention to plot and subplot developments.

Many guides leverage nonfree media to assist the reader. A goal during the writing of this Wikibook was to see if this could successfully be avoided. If you, the reader, feel this guide is an insufficient aid without such media, please feel free to add fair use screenshots per the Wikibooks policy.
