Plan your next Vaudeville session
Our independent guide breaks Vaudeville into five concrete pillars—story, AI dialogue, exploration, Steam integration and platform specifics—so you can approach the mystery methodically, track each element, and compare observations without relying on undocumented shortcuts.
01 / THE GUIDE
Suspect Comparison Chart
Create a table listing each suspect, their known locations and key statements. Comparing rows side‑by‑side highlights contradictions that the AI may surface later.
- Note each suspect’s statements; contradictions often hint at hidden motives.
- Observe how the AI responds when you reference a suspect’s past.
02 / THE GUIDE
Dialogue Variation Test
Pick one NPC and ask the same question using different phrasing or tone. Record how the AI’s replies differ to uncover optional lines.
- Re‑phrase a question to see if the AI offers additional information.
- Switch between typing and voice to compare subtle differences in responses.
03 / THE GUIDE
Clue‑Dialogue Cross‑Reference
When you acquire an item, write its description, then revisit earlier conversations to see if mentioning it alters the suspect’s response.
- Inspect every interactive element; minor details often serve as clues.
- After finding a clue, revisit earlier suspects to test if their answers change.
04 / THE GUIDE
Steam Feature Exploration
Browse the Steam Workshop for community scenarios, then play one alongside the base game to compare narrative flow and clue placement.
- Explore the Workshop to see what community content is available.
- Check controller settings if you prefer using a gamepad.
05 / THE GUIDE
Platform Performance Notes
Run the game on both Windows and Linux (if possible) and note any differences in controller handling or performance to inform future sessions.
- Verify your system meets the listed requirements before purchase.
- Linux users may consult community guides for optimal controller configuration.
