Plan your next The Sinking City Remastered session

Our independent guide offers focused observations and comparative exercises for each core pillar of The Sinking City Remastered. Use these activities to fine‑tune visual settings, traversal choices, investigative habits, combat preparation and stress management without relying on external upgrades.

01 / THE GUIDE

Lighting Comparison

Run the same scene with DLSS enabled and then with FSR. Note frame‑rate differences and any loss of ray‑traced shadow detail, then decide which setting best balances performance and visual fidelity.

  • Enable DLSS if you need higher frame rates while keeping ray‑traced effects.
  • Activate HDR on a supported monitor to maximize contrast.

02 / THE GUIDE

Traversal Timing

Measure travel time between two key districts using foot, boat and diving suit. Record which method is fastest for each segment and whether any hidden shortcuts appear.

  • Use the boat to cross large water sections quickly.
  • Switch to the diving suit for underwater passages blocked on the surface.

03 / THE GUIDE

Clue Mapping

Create a side‑by‑side list of journal entries and corresponding in‑game evidence. Highlight patterns that lead to multiple case endings, helping you anticipate alternative solutions.

  • Record every clue in the journal to simplify later cross‑referencing.
  • Experiment with different deduction paths to discover alternate endings.

04 / THE GUIDE

Weapon Selection

Compare the listed 1920s weapons against a common enemy type. Observe which weapon feels most reliable based on the tutorials and combat balance notes.

  • Select a weapon that matches the enemy type you encounter.
  • Observe the crowd behavior changes noted in tutorials to anticipate combat.

05 / THE GUIDE

Stress Monitoring

Track mental‑health meter changes after combat versus puzzle sections. Experiment with pausing to let the meter recover and record which approach restores stability most efficiently.

  • Watch the meter during intense scenes and pause if it rises sharply.
  • Use tutorial guidance to understand how mental health impacts gameplay.
