How the hell do you play this game i cant figure anything out lol
To the biggest part it plays like an adventure game.
Talk to people, find out what they want, grab everything you can and see if you can do something with it.
For example: Rachel wants the Thermos that Frank confiscated (there's Booze in it). The more civilized way is to convince him to give it to you, but to do so, you need to earn his trust. That you do by giving him the five natty bears which you find in the house.
Another example is Madisons diary. It's in a safe in her closet. The combination to that safe you find by using a piece of paper and a pencil on something you find in her bedroom. Make sure she doesn't see you when you open the safe.
Be aware that some actions exclude each other. If you get Stephanie drunk, one path opens, but she won't be sober enough to help someone with a medical situation. Also in some situation you can ruin relationships with a character so the path will be blocked.
The game is designed for you to do several playthroughs to explore all the options.
