Tựa game hành động phiêu lưu góc nhìn thứ ba South of Midnight mang đến một hành trình thú vị với những nhân vật ấn tượng và địa điểm kỳ ảo lấy cảm hứng từ văn hóa dân gian gothic miền Nam nước Mỹ. Được phát triển bởi Compulsion Games, studio đứng sau We Happy Few và Contrast, đây là tựa game đầu tiên của họ dưới trướng Xbox Game Studios.
Phong cách hình ảnh bùng nổ và tầm nhìn sâu sắc của South of Midnight là minh chứng cho sự sáng tạo của đội ngũ phát triển. Thế giới trong game chứa đựng vô vàn kiến thức và cốt truyện về các nhân vật cùng thế giới mà Hazel đang sống, được kể lại thông qua các trang lore có thể thu thập được gọi là “readables”.
Hướng dẫn này sẽ là kim chỉ nam giúp bạn theo dõi và thu thập tất cả các readables để hoàn thành bộ sưu tập trong kho đồ của South of Midnight.
Chương 1
Do tính chất tuyến tính và diễn biến theo từng chương của game, nhiều glyph, ghi chú và trang lore rải rác khắp Prospero thường nằm dọc theo con đường chính trong cuộc phiêu lưu của Hazel.
Tổng cộng có 103 collectible readables cung cấp cái nhìn sâu sắc hơn về lore của các nhân vật và thế giới mà Hazel tìm thấy mình trong đó.
Bạn có thể chơi lại mọi chương trong game bằng cách chọn “Load Game” ở Menu chính và chọn “Chapter Replay” dưới file lưu của bạn. Game có 14 chương, sẽ được mở khóa lần lượt khi bạn tiến bộ qua câu chuyện.
