As you go through the conversation, you will be given some choices. You have a limited amount of time to make a choice. The choices you make will have an impact as you play the game. You can either be honest or deceitful. Your companions will take notice everything that you say or do. Their attitudes towards you will depends on the choices you make throughout the game. Anyway, keep talking with the Cop by looking at the rear view mirror, and at the radio. Eventually you will get into a crash. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= THE WOODS When you regain consciousness, look at the shotgun, at the cop, and then at your handcuffs. Kick the window four times, and then press W (Forward Key) to get out from the car. Once you got out from the car, press W until you get to the other side. Look at the shotgun (you can pick it up if you want), then take the shotgun shell near the shotgun. Approach the cop, look at him, then take the keys from his pocket. Once you have the keys, unlock your handcuffs. Lee will get clumsy and drop the keys, so grab it again, then continue unlocking your handcuffs. Once you're free the from the cuffs, the police cop will attack you. ******* THE COP ******* First thing that you need to do is press S (Backward Key) until you reach the car. Pick the shotgun to your left, Lee will eventually reload it. However, due to his panic, he will drop it. Pick the shotgun shell to your right and Lee will successfully reload it to the shotgun. Now aim your shotgun on the Cop's head and shoot. Once the cop is dead, you will see a mysterious figure appears infront of you. Call out to her, but she will run away. Once the camera changes view, look to your right to trigger a scene. After the scene, you will be in someone's yard. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= THE YARD AND THE HOUSE Examine the Tea Set and the Treehouse (after you examine it, try talking to it) behind you. Walk up the stairs and go inside the house. Ignore the beeping and check everything around. Approach the kitchen and search the cabinets and drawers. You will eventually get a WALKIE TALKIE. From the kitchen, go to the living and search everything (except the answering machine). After you're done searching, approach the answering machine and listen to all 3 messages. After you've listened to the last message, you will get a scene. After the scene, you will be attacked again by the babysitter. ************** THE BABYSITTER ************** Quicky press the Q button, keep pressing it until it changes to E. Press E and Lee will push her back. Lee will try to run away, but he will trip and fall down on a pool of blood. Once you regain control, the screen will be blurry. Move the cursor around until you see the Kick icon appears, press it and Lee will kick the zombie away from him. Keep kicking and punching (by pressing Q, E, and the Kick icon) the zombie until the girl, Clementine, reaches you with a hammer. Grab the hammer from her, and then aim the hammer on the zombie's head. Keep hitting her with the hammer until you trigger another scene. During the scene, you will be given 2 choices: "Look for help, before it gets dark.", or "Get out of here once the sun goes down." If you choose to go out during the day, then you will exit the house during the day. Follow Clementine into the gate. Open the gate to trigger a scene. During the scene, help the guys push the car blocking their path. After you've pushed it, you will be out of the city and be at Hershel's Farm. If you choose to wait until dark, then you will exit the house during the night. Follow Clementine into the gate. Open the gate and move forward to trigger another scene. After the scene, you will be at Hershel's Farm. The only difference that I've noticed between these two decisions is that if you pick the 1st choice, then Chet will live. If you pick the 2nd choice, then you will meet Officer Andre instead since Chet will be turned into a zombie. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= HERSHEL'S FARM No matter what decision you've picked, you will arrive at Hershel's Farm at night. When you regain control of Lee, speak with everyone (Katjaa, Clementine, Kenny, Duck, Shawn, and finally Hershel). After you've talked to Hershel, you will trigger a scene where you have to choose between saving Shawn or saving Duck. *************************** SAVING SHAWN OR SAVING DUCK *************************** You have to pick between these two. If you choose to save Duck, then you have to get him free from Zombie's clutches by punching the zombie, then pull him out with the help from his father Kenny. If you choose to save Shawn, then you need to push the Tractor crushing his legs, then either pull him out under the tractor. or punch the zombies to free him from their clutches. No matter what you choose, Shawn will die and Duck will live. The only difference is that if you try to save Shawn, Hershel will never yell or curse at you. He will yell and curse at Kenny for not helping you to save Shawn. No matter what you choose, you will be kicked out from Hershel's Farm. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= INSIDE THE DRUGS STORE During the long cutscene, you will be give some choices. Some of the choices you'll make will affect Kenny's loyalty towards you. During the heated cutscene, Clementine will be attacked, and you have to save her. ***************** SAVING CLEMENTINE ***************** Point your cursor to Clementine then press it when the Grab icon appears. Lee will try to pull Clementine away from the zombie. Once Clementine is free, the zombie will grab Lee instead. Keep pressing Q until Carley rescues you by shooting the zombie on the head. When you regain control of Lee, speak with everyone (Carley, Clementine, Kenny, Katjaa, Duck, Lily, and Larry). You can find 4 ENERGY BARS in this area. The first one is located on the shelf behind Carley. The second one is located on the floor near the ATM Machine. The third one is on the shelf near Lily, and the fourth one is located on the shelf between Larry and Kenny. You can give them to your companions if you want. You can also examine the Radio infront of Carley by pressing the On/Off button, turn the Volume all the way up, then flip the radio over and check the battery door to find out that it doesn't have any battery. You need 2 BATTERIES to power up the radio. The first one can be found on the shelf located on the right to where Kenny, Katjaa, and Duck are sitting. The second one can be found on the floor located on the right side to where Clementine is sitting. Once you have the batteries, give them to Carley. Still... Carley can't get it to work, so examine it again to find out that she put them the wrong way. Put the batteries the right way, then flip the Antenna up, and then turn the power on. The radio should be working now. Open the door to the Office (the one near Larry) to trigger a scene. Examine everything including the pallet and the picture frame on the floor. Pick it up to trigger another scene. After the scene, you will get a PHOTO. Move the desk away from the door leading to the Pharmacy. Clementine will help you move the desk causing her to get hurt. There's a first aid kit on one of the tables near you. Examine it to get a BANDAGE. Apply the bandage to Clementine, and then search one of the drawers near Clementine to get a REMOTE. Now examine the door leading to the Pharmacy to find out that it is locked, so you need to find the Key in order to open it. Since you can't do anything at the moment, return outside. Speak with Carley to trigger a scene where Glenn will contact you via the Walkie Talkie. Glenn is in trouble, so you need to help him. Speak with Carley again and pick "You're ready to head out?" and "Yeah". =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= THE MOTOR INN After the scene, your next objective is to save the girl inside the inn. In order to save her, you need to kill all the zombies in the area without getting seen. Okay, let's start by grabbing the PILLOW to your left. Now turn to your right and then hide towards the pick up truck. Turn to your left and use the pillow on the zombie near you. Open the car door near you and grab the SPARK PLUG. Once you have it, unlock the gear shift. Now, push the car towards the zombie. You will return to the pick up track. Turn to your right, and use the spark plug to break down the glass. Grab the AWL from the truck. Once you have it, return to the brick wall you came from. Turn to your left then hide towards the RV. Turn to your left and use the awl icon on the zombie near you. Lee will whistle at the zombie, and the zombie will approach Lee. Once the zombie is near, attack him with the awl twice to kill him. Another zombie will attack Glenn from behind, so hit her once with an awl to kill her. Lee will approach the zombie that is trapped with the car you've pushed earlier. Kill it with the awl and grab the AXE from the wall. Go to your right then climb the stairs. Kill the 2 Zombies with your axe then examine the door. Use your axe to break down the door to trigger another scene. During the scene, you will be given 2 choices. It doesn't matter what you choose since the Girl will die either way. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= BACK AT THE DRUGS STORE Speak with Glenn and Carley if you like, then speak with Doug. Since you have the axe, photo, and the remote, you can go outside. Speak with Doug if you like, then examine the trapped walker near the boarded window, and then use the photo you've found. Now, check the TV store infront of you, and then use the remote. Use your axe to break the lock then open the gate. Grab the BRICK, and then throw it to the TV store. Since the zombie are now being distracted, run towards the trapped walker (Lee's Brother). Kill him with the axe, then keep hitting him with it until you get the KEY. After the scene, you will be back at the Office. Since you have the key, head to the Pharmacy, use it, then enter to trigger another scene. After the scene, your job is to defend the door while the other survivors try to escape. Approach the door, and Lee will replace Glenn from guarding it. All you have to do is keep pressing the Push icon when it appears then press Q then E until Clementine finds you something to lock the door. When Clementine returns, take the CANE from her, and use it to lock the door behind you. Now, you need to Carley and Doug. **************************** SAVING CARLEY OR SAVING DOUG **************************** You have to pick between these two. You cannot save both. If you want to save Carley, then take the Purse and Lee will grab some bullets and throw it to her. If you want to save Doug, you need to run towards him, then grabs him away from the zombies' clutches. After you've saved Carley or Doug, Clementine will be grabbed by the zombie, so you have to save her... again. *********************** SAVING CLEMENTINE AGAIN *********************** Point your cursor on the zombie then press it. Lee will approach the zombie and stump her on the head. Just keep stumping her until she let Clementine go. Now approach Larry to trigger another scene. You cannot do anything, so just wait until someone saves you. When help arrives, take Kenny's hand to get away from that place. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= BACK AT THE MOTOR INN This will be your Safe Haven for now. After the scene, speak with your companions until the credits roll. Congratulations!!! You've just finished Episode 1!!! TO BE CONTINUED.... EPISODE 2: STARVED FOR HELP =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= =============================================================================== ------------------------[FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS]--------------------------- =============================================================================== Q. Hey your guide sucks. A. Well, it doesn't bother me since I expect this kind of feedbacks. Q. Can you save Shawn? A. Nope, you cannot save him. If you read the comic book series, then you know why. Q. Can you save both Carley and Doug? A. Nope you can only save one. Q. What transfers on Episode 2? A. I'm not sure since Episode 2 hasn't released yet. I think the decisions you made from Episode 1 will transfer. Like your decision between Carley and Doug, and your attitude towards your companions especially Kenny. Q.

Yes you can as long as it hasn’t been mentioned yet in my Guide. =============================================================================== ---------------------------------[LEGAL]--------------------------------------- =============================================================================== This Guide is copyrighted by me so do not distribute, reproduce, sell, copy, or post this Guide without my permission.
