What exploration can extend a run?

Optional time can come from seeking coded postcards, finding hidden phone numbers, and pursuing unlockable outfits and weapons beyond the main objectives.

How do documents and puzzles affect pace?

Reading documents and computer emails can provide puzzle clues, and using Hinted puzzle mode adds red highlights to salient clue text.

What completion goals add replay time?

Replay time can grow if you pursue five endings, complete a New Game Plus playthrough, collect its unlocks, or tune into all CRTV signals.

Does New Game Plus skip collecting weapons?

You must collect weapons again in New Game Plus because gameplay items do not carry over from the previous run.
