Pierrot & Harlequin Path
Day 2 contains several character-related choices rather than one simple universal “best route.” Track the choices you make here and use the summary to understand why later scenes may differ.
01 — Keep Quiet or Scream?
This early choice can affect later Harlequin-related interactions.
Choose Keep quiet if you want to preserve the Harlequin-related follow-up tracked by this guide. Scream continues without that specific later interaction.
02 — Should You Hold Harlequin's Hand?
This interaction can be referenced by later Harlequin-related content.
Hold his hand if you want the later variation connected to this interaction. Choosing Please go away continues without that specific choice.
Why don't I see the same Harlequin scene as another player?
Several Day 1 and Day 2 choices can affect later interactions. Check your early Harlequin response, hand interaction, Follow / Move Away branch, room choice, and earlier Day 1 choices. If the exact trigger for a variation has not been fully resolved, this guide marks it as unresolved instead of guessing.
03 — Follow Him or Move Away?
This is one of the main Day 2 character splits. Follow him and Move away lead into different later interaction sets.
Neither choice is currently a universal “best” choice. Pick the branch based on the interactions you want to see.
Which should I choose for Harlequin?
If your goal is to see the Harlequin-related content attached to the Follow branch, choose Follow him. This should not be treated as a complete finished Harlequin route.
04 — Who Should Stay in the Room?
Both options change later character-specific variations.
This choice changes later Day 2 scenes and later Black Tent moments.
Does the room choice determine an ending?
No standalone ending condition is currently attached to this choice alone.

Come closer enters the Hidden Scene 2 branch. Run away leaves without it.
Why Is My Day 2 Different From Another Player's?
Day 2 contains several remembered choices and character branches, so two players can reach similar parts of the story and still see different interactions.
When comparing your run, check:
Day 1 choices
- • Pink Ticket
- • Food
- • Pierrot-related choices
- • Other remembered choices
Day 2 choices
- • Keep Quiet / Scream
- • Hold Hand / Please Go Away
- • Follow / Move Away
- • Room Choice
If the exact trigger for a scene variation has not been fully resolved, this guide marks it as unresolved instead of inventing a trigger.
